About The Position

Growth Acceleration Partners seeks a SharePoint Solutions Architect (Power Automate SME) to support a top tier global PE firm. In this role, you will serve as the enterprise authority bridging the gap between technical execution and business needs by designing scalable, secure, and maintainable SharePoint and Power Platform solutions. Work directly with PE ops leaders on high stakes transformations architecting enterprise SharePoint / Power Platform solutions for portfolio acceleration.

You will act as the technical authority for SharePoint-based solutions, defining best practices, guiding solution design, and ensuring business teams leverage SharePoint and Power Automate effectively and safely.
A successful candidate brings strong architectural judgment, confidence, and ownership, serving as a trusted advisor who can both design solutions and explain them clearly to non-technical audiences.

This role exists to:
Architect solutions.
Define standards and best practices.
Guide business and technical teams.
Drive clarity, adoption, and long-term scalability.

• Strong understanding of governance, security, and compliance in enterprise environments.
• Ability to clearly communicate architectural decisions to business and technical audiences.
• Experience with PE portfolio ops, fund admin automation, or compliance heavy environments (SOC2, GDPR).
• You thrive explaining complex architecture to C-suite and enforcing governance without stifling innovation.
• Strong executive presence and confidence.
• High ownership mindset—comfortable being the “go-to” authority.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to balance enablement with governance.
• Comfortable with challenging ideas and guiding teams toward better solutions.
• 7+ years of experience in software engineering or enterprise application development.
• 4+ years designing/delivering SharePoint Online solutions in financial services, PE, or regulated industries.
