Architect, Solutions EDI

Are you looking for a lead EDI role in a manufacturing organization using D365? Are you passionate about building smart, scalable integration solutions that drive real business impact? Do you enjoy solving complex problems and translating business needs into effective technology solutions?

We're looking for a Solution Architect - EDI to lead the design and delivery of EDI and B2B integration solutions within a dynamic manufacturing environment powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365 F&O).

In this role, you'll act as a critical bridge between business and IT-partnering with stakeholders to understand their needs and architect solutions that improve efficiency, strengthen supply chain connectivity, and enable data-driven decision-making. The ideal candidate brings deep experience in EDI technologies within the Microsoft ERP ecosystem (AX 2009, AX 2012, D365), along with strong solution architecture and integration expertise.

You'll play a key role in shaping scalable, reliable, and future-ready integration frameworks that support seamless communication with trading partners across the business.
