The preferred candidate will have the following skills and experience to be successful in the role:

• Extensive experience working as a dedicated Digital Solution Architect on large-scale cloud-native project environments with Microsoft Azure as the primary platform.

• Experience designing service composition strategies and knowing when to introduce platforms (API gateway, event broker, integration middleware) to simplify complex architectures.
• Broad technical foundation — comfortable reasoning across application design, integration patterns, data architecture, networking, identity, and security without needing to be the hands-on expert in every layer.
• Familiarity with .NET and at least one other modern language or runtime (e.g. Go); able to evaluate architecture trade-offs in a polyglot environment.
• Strong grasp of modern agile delivery methodologies and how architectural decisions either accelerate or impede delivery velocity.
• Experience working across multi-cloud or hybrid environments (Azure primary; AWS or on-premises secondary).
• Excellent communication and interpersonal with the ability to work with a national delivery team committed to providing a high level of digital solution.

All applicants must be currently based in Auckland with full NZ working rights and flexibility to work within a hybrid (3x days in office) environment.
