Role Summary
The Solution Architect (Contract Logistics IT CoE) is a senior design authority responsible for end-to-end solution architecture on complex, multi-system contract logistics programs. As a cross-domain expert, this role ensures that all components of a solution – from WMS, TMS, and OMS to integrations, automation, and customer systems – are architected into a holistic, cohesive design. The Solution Architect engages early (pre-sales/demand stage) and stays involved through delivery to guarantee technical integrity, bridging application silos and preventing late-stage design gaps. Two positions will be filled (one in Europe, one in the Americas), reporting into the CL IT CoE’s Integration & Architecture unit, with coverage of their respective regions (and support to other regions as needed).
Key Responsibilities
End-to-End Solution Design: Own the overall technical design for assigned complex CL programs (multi-site or high-complexity implementations). Define how all solution components (WMS, TMS, OMS, integration middleware, automation,



customer systems) will work together to meet requirements.
Early Engagement in Demand/Pre-Sales: Participate in opportunity shaping – reviewing new customer requirements at demand and RFP stage. Determine if the solution is standard vs. non-standard, and if complex or bespoke elements warrant Solution Architect involvement. Provide guidance on solution options and ensure proposed designs are viable and optimized (e.g. attend architecture board reviews).
Design Authority During Delivery: Act as the design authority throughout the project lifecycle. Make or approve key architecture decisions, ensuring domain architects’ and product teams’ designs align into a unified solution. Veto or adjust design choices when needed to safeguard end-to-end integrity.
Cross-System Integration: Develop and document integration architecture (interfaces, data flows, process touchpoints) across all systems in scope. Address c
