Job Description

The Business Solution Architect will coordinate, lead and work closely with the central project team to lead the design and delivery of end-to-end solution architecture for a global airport transformation program, centered on Oracle Fusion.

This includes coordinating all business processes (e.g., Procure-to-Pay, Order-to-Cash, Record-to-Report, Hire-to-Retire), integrating satellite and industry-specific projects, and enabling the "art of possible" through automation, analytics, and digital innovation.

• Lead the design of the overall ERP solution architecture, ensuring alignment with airport business objectives and regulatory requirements.
• Map and optimize end-to-end business processes, ensuring digital continuity from source to outcome across all functional domains (e.g., finance, procurement, HR, asset management, tax, compliance).
• Define and document architectural standards, principles, and patterns for Oracle Fusion modules and related platforms.
• Oversee the integration of Oracle Fusion with legacy systems, third‑party applications, and airport‑specific platforms, leveraging APIs, middleware, and iPaaS solutions.
• Assess legacy systems for decommissioning based on the availability of functionalities in Oracle Fusion.
• Champion the adoption of emerging technologies (AI, RPA, analytics, chatbots) to unlock new business value and operational excellence.
• Drive digital transformation, enabling new business models, rapid scaling, and future‑proofing the enterprise.
• Stay abreast of industry trends and best practices, proactively identifying opportunities for innovation and continuous improvement.
• Guide implementation teams in translating business requirements into robust, scalable Oracle Fusion solutions.
• Oversee end-to-end solution integration, including middleware, APIs, data flows, and automation.
• Develop and validate technical specifications, interface designs, and integration strategies.
• Coordinate mock deployments, cutover planning, rollback procedures, and post‑implementation reviews.
• Oversee all related projects (data migration, reporting/analytics, procurement, asset management, HR, compliance, industry modules) to ensure architectural alignment and interoperability.
• Serve as the primary architectural liaison with the PMO, business stream leads, IT, and external partners.
• Facilitate cross‑functional workshops to gather requirements, align on solution frameworks, and secure stakeholder buy‑in.
• Prepare and deliver regular status updates, architectural dashboards, and action plans to senior management and project sponsors.
• Support training and enablement for business users and technical teams on new solution components and integration processes.
• Foster a culture of innovation, continuous improvement, and digital transformation across the enterprise.
• Ensure all solution architecture activities comply with internal and external data privacy, security, and regulatory requirements (e.g., GDPR, Qatar PDPPL).
• Establish and enforce integration governance, including RACI matrices, escalation paths, and architectural standards.

• Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Information Technology, Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
• 10+ years of experience in solution architecture for large‑scale transformation programs (preferably Oracle Fusion) within asset‑intensive or airport environments.
• Proven experience designing and implementing end‑to‑end business processes and integrated solutions in complex, asset‑intensive environments.
• Strong technical expertise in ERP architecture, integration, middleware, APIs, and security.
• Expertise in modern integration approaches (APIs, ESB, iPaaS), cloud‑native architectures, and digital transformation.
• Demonstrated experience in stakeholder management, communication, and project coordination in complex, cross‑functional settings.
• Professional certifications in solution architecture, project management, or ERP systems (preferred).
• Demonstrated ability to lead cross‑functional teams and manage multiple, concurrent projects with a focus on business outcomes and innovation.
