This role demands technical leadership, ensuring exceptional quality, seamless execution, and client satisfaction across complex projects. Collaborating closely with internal teams, clients, and external partners, you will architect sophisticated enterprise systems that align with business goals and drive measurable outcomes. Architecture & Solution Design Own the target architecture for D365 F&O and integrated applications across Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI) and Azure (Functions, Logic Apps, API Management, Service Bus, Event Grid, Key Vault).

Delivery Leadership Serve as the primary client‑facing technical lead from discovery through go‑live and hyper‑care; guide backlog, scope, estimates, and technical risk mitigation. Lay the foundation for delivery by setting up environments, integration patterns, security, and DevOps pipelines that enable teams to deliver features quickly and safely. Ensure technical deliverables meet rigorous quality standards, align with strategic objectives, and foster a referenceable client experience that strengthens Crowe's reputation. Establish and enforce engineering standards: code review quality bars, branching, solution layering, extensibility (X++/extensions), telemetry, and documentation. Proactively identify and pursue opportunities for collaboration with broader Crowe Technical specialists and Microsoft FastTrack to enhance project outcomes. Copilot & AI Enablement Build ERP and integration solutions that surface the right data in the right way, enabling Copilot, reporting, and advanced analytics. Embed automation and intelligence into processes to improve efficiency, quality, and decision‑making. Help clients adopt Copilot and AI capabilities in a controlled, value‑driven manner, balancing innovation with compliance and security. Advisory, Pre Sales & Thought Leadership Shape proposals/SoWs, lead client demos and technical deep dives, and contribute to estimates and delivery approaches. Create reusable accelerators, reference architectures, and best practice playbooks, mentor engineers and consultants.
