NetSuite Solution Architect

Ambition Manila, National Capital Region, Philippines

Our client is embarking on a global NetSuite transformation program spanning 19 countries. We are looking for an experienced NetSuite Solution Architect to lead the end-to-end architecture and implementation of NetSuite ERP. This individual will play a key role in shaping the solution blueprint, driving strategic and technical alignment across teams, and ensuring successful delivery across complex, multi-system environments.

• 1. Strategic Architecture Ownership
  • Own and evolve the global NetSuite blueprint into actionable, implementation-ready designs that balance global standardization (80%) with localized compliance (20%).
  • Define architecture across core processes, integrations, and data models with a focus on scalability and compliance.
  • Support the Data and Middleware teams in developing a robust master data governance framework (COA, legal entities, revenue/charge codes, etc.).
  • Ensure architecture decisions mitigate delivery and transition risks.

• 2. Program Alignment & Integration
  • Translate business transformation goals into technical guardrails and architecture principles.
  • Collaborate with Middleware, Data, HRMS, and Operational Systems teams to design scalable integrations (real-time and batch), data flows, and system touchpoints.
  • Minimize duplication and manual entry through seamless process and system integration.

• 3. Program Execution & Delivery
  • Lead solution design and validation phases as the primary NetSuite authority.
  • Conduct cross-functional workshops to translate global designs into executable localized solutions.
  • Co-own implementation execution with the NetSuite product team, covering design validation, cutover planning, data migration, go-live, and hypercare.
  • Monitor architectural consistency and manage technical dependencies and risks across all implementation phases.

• 4. Governance & Compliance
  • Represent architecture function in Steering Committees and Governance Boards.
  • Present trade-offs (e.g., customization vs out-of-the-box) with ROI and risk analysis.
  • Govern solution compliance with regulatory standards (GDPR, local tax laws, PII).
  • Maintain and document Architecture Decision Records (ADRs).

• 5. Stakeholder Engagement & Leadership
  • Act as the bridge between IT, Finance, Operations, and Business to ensure alignment.
  • Secure executive sponsorship and buy-in through clear communication of value (e.g., cost savings from standardization).
  • Resolve competing demands through phased, pragmatic solution roadmaps.
  • Mentor internal teams on NetSuite best practices and technical governance.

• 6. Foundational Deliverables
  • End-to-end Solution Blueprint
  • Integration & Data Flow Architecture
  • Master Data Governance Model
  • Process & System Gap Analysis
  • Solution Traceability Matrix
  • Final Cutover Readiness Package

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Finance, Engineering, or related discipline.
• Preferred Certifications: TOGAF, NetSuite ERP, or equivalent.

• 10+ years of experience in solution architecture or enterprise systems implementation.
• Proven hands-on experience in NetSuite ERP implementation (Financials, SuiteScript, Multi-book, Advanced Revenue Management).
• Deep understanding of ERP ecosystems and enterprise integration patterns.
• Strong background in master data governance and migration.
• Ability to simplify complex concepts for executive-level stakeholders.
• Experience in large-scale, multi-country transformation programs.
• Familiarity with structured delivery methodologies (Waterfall, Hybrid, Agile).

• Business Process Frameworks (Finance, HR, Operations)
