Enterprise Solutions Architect

Candidate Description

With over two decades of experience delivering enterprise-scale solutions, this seasoned Enterprise Solutions Architect excels in architecting secure, cloud-native and hybrid platforms on Azure, Dynamics 365 and Microsoft 365 for government and highly regulated organisations. They couple deep technical mastery of Power Platform, Dataverse and API-led integration with a strategic understanding of whole-of-government standards, ensuring every design meets stringent security, governance and compliance mandates. TOGAF-certified and holding both Microsoft and AWS solution-architect credentials, they consistently bridge business objectives with robust architectural outcomes.

Their technical acumen is showcased through complex modernisation programmes at entities such as a Government Department, a Previous Employer and a Police Department, where they engineered event-driven architectures using Azure API Management, Logic Apps, Event Grid and Service Bus. Adept at identity-first security, they design Entra ID B2B/B2C models, implement Zero-Trust controls and embed DevSecOps practices using Azure DevOps, Terraform and automated policy scanning. Key achievements include replacing legacy TRIM EDRMS platforms, delivering Kafka-enabled real-time data pipelines for court systems and establishing CI/CD frameworks that reduced release cycles by up to 40%.

A collaborative leader and mentor, they thrive in multi-vendor, Agile environments, chairing design-authority forums and guiding cross-functional teams through complex transformations. Their ability to translate strategic vision into actionable roadmaps, coupled with rigorous governance and stakeholder management, makes them a trusted advisor who consistently drives digital-transformation success and long-term value for organisations across government, consulting and financial-services sectors.
