About Metagenics

For over 43 years, Metagenics has had the mission to help people live happier, healthier lives through the life-changing power of nutrition. We believe the way we do business is as important as the business we do; that a company in the nourishment business should nourish its people, too. So, we incorporated healthy, sustainable care into every dimension of our culture.

Our diverse and expansive team are a prime example of the power of a people-first approach. We know first‑hand, when an organization prioritizes internal growth and fosters empathy, its people come together to set an example of what the world can become.

Join us in being the world’s leading healthcare professional-grade VMS company!

Metagenics is investing meaningfully in the modernization and convergence of its global technology stack. Over the next several years we will unify our enterprise systems, modernize our commerce and integration architecture, scale a portfolio of production AI programs, and evolve toward a Centers of Excellence operating model.

To do this well, we need a Principal Solution Architect who can hold the whole picture — the systems, the data, the integrations, the security posture, the operational readiness — and set the technical direction that our teams and delivery partners execute against.

This is a highly visible role, working directly with the CTO, technology leadership, and executive stakeholders across the business. You will become the enterprise’s technical center of gravity.

• Own the enterprise reference architecture across ERP, ecommerce, data, integration, and AI layers
• Set architectural patterns, standards, and technology selection criteria that every technology function executes against
• Chair the Architecture Review Board and sign off on architecturally significant decisions

• Serve as the peer-level technical advisor to each area leader across ERP, Ecommerce, Data & AI, Security, and IT Operations
• Ensure major transformation programs share consistent integration, data, identity, and observability patterns
• Prevent point solutions from calcifying into new legacy

• Own the target-state architecture for our global ERP consolidation onto a single modern platform
• Own the target-state architecture for our global ecommerce convergence — including B2C, B2B / practitioner, subscriptions, payments, tax, and fulfillment
• Own the platform architecture for our generative AI programs — including LLM routing, retrieval patterns, data pipelines, guardrails, and observability

• Rearchitect middleware and integrations across disparate enterprise systems — evolve a large point-to-point integration estate into a governed, event-driven architecture
• Set the strategic direction for the enterprise integration platform, ensuring it simplifies as major systems converge
• Establish clean separation of concerns — no business logic living in middleware where it doesn’t belong

• Define the enterprise data architecture — master data, event streams, warehousing, and downstream consumption for BI, AI, and operational reporting
• Establish clean ownership between the transactional stack and the analytical / AI stack

• Partner with the Head of Security on architecture-level controls — identity, access, data classification, encryption, network segmentation
• Ensure compliance with applicable regimes including NIS2, FSSC 22000, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and regional privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA)
• Design for resilience — RTO/RPO targets, disaster recovery patterns, and business continuity

• 15+ years in enterprise technology, with at least 5 years as a senior or principal-level architect at a global company
• Direct hands‑on architectural experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 (Finance & Operations and/or Customer Engagement) at scale — including multi‑country / multi‑legal‑entity deployments
• Direct experience architecting modern ecommerce platforms — Shopify strongly preferred; comparable modern commerce…
