About the Role:
As a Solutions Architect at Kinetic IT, you will play a pivotal role in designing, guiding, and overseeing complex solutions across a diverse identity application portfolio. This is a hands-on architectural position where you will combine technical depth with strategic thinking to deliver scalable, secure, and efficient solutions.

You will collaborate with stakeholders across the business, translating requirements into clear technical designs while ensuring projects are delivered on time, within scope, and aligned with best practices. This role requires not just strong technical expertise, but also excellent communication, documentation, and critical thinking skills.

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Design and implement end-to-end solutions, including system architecture diagrams, data models, and integration strategies.
• Ensure solutions align with enterprise standards and follow best practices in scalability, performance, and security.

• Lead database architecture and optimization using MS SQL Server—including data modelling, performance tuning, and index management.
• Manage and design solutions for Microsoft Exchange, covering architecture, security, integration, and migration strategies.
• Produce comprehensive and clear technical documentation for technical and non-technical audiences.
• Collaborate with developers, engineers, and stakeholders to resolve issues, evaluate trade-offs, and recommend effective solutions.

About You:
You are a strategic thinker and problem-solver with the ability to bridge the gap between business requirements and technical delivery. You're equally comfortable designing at a high level and diving into the technical detail.

To be successful in this role, you will bring:

• Proven experience as a Solutions Architect or similar senior technical role.
