Responsibilities

• Lead Power Platform solutions from discovery through go-live, translating business needs into scalable, enterprise-ready designs.
• Architect and build solutions using Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, Power Pages, Power BI, Copilot Studio, and Azure.
• Stay hands-on technically, developing apps, workflows, integrations, Dataverse configurations, and custom extensions.
• Design enterprise architecture around security, integrations, data models, ALM/CI-CD, environments, governance, licensing, and DLP policies.
• Lead and mentor delivery teams, delegate work, conduct design and code reviews, estimate projects, and manage technical risks.
• Partner directly with clients to lead discovery and design sessions, perform fit-gap analysis, and recommend the right balance of low-code and pro-code solutions.
• Support presales efforts, including solution design, estimates, proposals, SOWs, demos, and proofs of concept.
• Help clients adopt Microsoft Copilot and AI capabilities, including Copilot Studio agents and AI Builder solutions, with a focus on responsible and practical AI adoption.

Requirements

• Comfortable with C#/.NET and JavaScript/TypeScript, including plug-ins, PCF controls, APIs, and custom connectors.

• Understanding of enterprise-scale Dataverse architecture, ALM/DevOps, security, and Power Platform governance.
• Enjoy being both a hands-on technologist and a leader, rather than stepping completely away from development.
• Comfortable working directly with clients, leading workshops, communicating with executives and technical stakeholders, and providing trusted technical guidance.
• Practical experience with Copilot Studio, Microsoft Copilot, AI Builder, or other AI-enabled Power Platform capabilities.
• Ability to contribute to presales and solution shaping, including estimates, proposals, demos, and SOWs.
