Senior Solution Architect (Calgary/Red Deer)

Senior IT Consultant / Systems Engineer

Calgary or Red Deer (with work across both locations)

Want to be on the leading edge—and help shape it?

Are you an experienced IT professional who enjoys solving meaningful problems, designing resilient systems, and helping organizations get real value from their technology?
Do you want to work in a collaborative environment where technical standards matter, good ideas are heard, and experience is respected?
Do you want to make a visible impact—without politics, chaos, or checkbox-driven work?

If so, we should talk.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The successful candidate can be based out of either our Calgary or Red Deer office.
This role requires regular hands‑on work in both Calgary and Red Deer, supporting clients, projects, and in‑person collaboration across Central Alberta.

This is a senior, hands‑on technical role for someone who enjoys balancing design‑level thinking with practical execution. You’ll be a go‑to resource for complex technical work, trusted client guidance, and raising the bar on how IT is delivered.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

Your primary mandate: help humans and businesses succeed through well‑designed, well‑supported technology.

• Take ownership of complex technical issues—diagnosing root causes, not just symptoms
• Design, deploy, and support business‑critical systems across on‑prem, cloud, and hybrid environments
• Serve as a technical escalation point for challenging problems and high‑impact incidents
• Partner with Technical Account Managers to proactively identify risks, improvements, and roadmap opportunities
• Lead and contribute to IT projects, from design through execution and post‑implementation review
• Provide clear, confident recommendations grounded in best practices and real‑world experience
• Document environments, decisions, and changes with a long‑term operational mindset

While this is not a formal people‑management role, your experience will influence others—through collaboration, example, and technical leadership.

TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You bring strong, real‑world experience across modern Microsoft environments, including:

• Microsoft Windows–based desktops and servers
• Microsoft Exchange (on‑premises) and Microsoft 365
• Remote Desktop Services (RDS)
• Advanced firewall, networking, and security solutions
• Cloud services and hybrid architectures
• Mobile device management and endpoint security

You’re especially comfortable with:

• Windows Server upgrades, lifecycle planning, and modernization
• P2V and V2V migrations and infrastructure transformations
• Designing and executing server and workload migrations with minimal business disruption
• SharePoint migrations, including on‑premises to SharePoint Online
• Building solutions that scale, are supportable, and won’t create tomorrow’s problems

You can work independently on technically complex initiatives, but you value collaboration, peer review, and shared standards over lone‑wolf heroics.

THE PROFESSIONAL WE WANT TO WORK WITH

• You communicate clearly with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
• You exercise sound judgment and know when “simple and reliable” beats “clever”
• You care about doing things right, not just fast
• You take pride in environments that are clean, documented, and supportable
• Certifications are a plus—but demonstrated experience and credibility matter more

THIS ROLE IS A GREAT FIT IF:

• You want to be trusted to make technical decisions—not micromanaged
• You value client outcomes more than billable‑hour games
• You’re done with chaos, weak standards, and perpetual firefighting
• You enjoy improving environments and the way work gets done
• You want to be part of a company that is intentionally getting better every year
