Technology
The architect who owns how everything fits: system landscape, integrations, and build-versus-buy decisions, written down so they survive.
A familiar landscape in Greek and Cypriot companies: the ERP belongs to one vendor, the e-shop to a second, the CRM to a third, and nobody owns how they talk to each other. Each vendor is competent inside its own system and unaccountable for the space between them, which is exactly where projects fail. A solution architect takes that space as the job: the system landscape, the integration architecture, build-versus-buy decisions, and the review of vendor proposals before they become commitments.
The solution architects on Hellenic Talent have held senior architecture and technology roles in industry, at top consultancies, and inside product companies that outgrew their first platform. They share the habit the role depends on: writing decisions down, with the reasoning and the rejected alternatives, so the architecture survives vendor changes, staff turnover, and their own eventual departure.
What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.
Stayed to see it built
Has designed systems that were built, and stayed close enough to see what the design got wrong.
Same story to everyone
Moves between the business, the vendors, and the engineers, and translates honestly in every direction.
Nothing to sell you
Vendor-neutral in fact, with no product or build capacity to sell alongside the advice.
Writes the decisions down
Treats documentation of decisions as the deliverable, not the afterthought.
Starts from the legacy
Pragmatic about legacy: designs a path from what exists rather than a fantasy from a blank page.
A short call is enough to understand the situation and tell you honestly whether the network has the right solution architect for it.
Engagements run remote, hybrid, or on-site, for clients in Greece, Cyprus, and the rest of the world.
