Aclarity is a consultancy focused on retail and consumer products. We help our clients develop their business by combining business insight and technology, with a team that brings experience from both senior line roles and consulting. As a Solution Architect with us, you work closely with clients in their assignments, while also helping to build Aclarity as a company.
About the role
You’ll work on the most exciting assignments for Sweden’s leading retail companies – from modern e-commerce platforms and cloud-based solutions to integrations, data flows and API-driven architectures. You’ll play a key role in designing, planning and delivering solutions that connect technology with our clients’ needs. Internally, you’ll also be a key person in guiding Aclarity as AI is implemented across our own platforms and processes.
Examples of responsibilities
- Develop a target architecture based on the client’s requirements, from system landscapes and integration patterns to information flows
- Guide the client in build vs. buy decisions, whether to invest in new solutions or reuse existing systems
- Establish architecture principles, standards and processes
- Analyze, model and visualize complex system landscapes, impacts and dependencies
Qualifications
We’re looking for someone who has

- A solid understanding of retail business processes and how they connect with systems such as e-commerce platforms, ERP and warehouse management systems

- Experience in preparing decision support and advising on system selection, investments and long-term strategic choices
- The ability to explain complex solutions clearly to both developers and management teams

It’s a plus if you have:
- Driven the architecture end-to-end in major system replacements, e.g. of e-commerce platforms, ERP or warehouse management systems
- Worked as an architect at a larger retail company
- Fluent Swedish skills, both spoken and written
To thrive in this role, you’re used to working independently, enjoy taking initiative and find it easy to structure and prioritize your work. You’re communicative and good at building relationships, collaborating easily with both clients and colleagues. You’re ambitious, set high goals for yourself and are motivated by seeing technology make a real difference to the client’s business. Finally, you have a commercial mindset and want to help develop the company further.
