Power Platform Engineer building secure, scalable business applications on Microsoft Platform for legacy modernization. Collaborating with teams to implement optimal app patterns and enhance user experience.
Responsibilities
Design and build Power Apps (Canvas and/or Model-driven, based on fit) to support business processes and replace or enhance legacy UI capabilities.
Translate requirements into intuitive app experiences: forms, dashboards, role-based screens, validation, and user-centric workflows.
Implement app performance best practices (delegation-aware design, data shaping, optimized formulas, responsive layouts).
Connect Power Apps to enterprise data sources and services in a secure and maintainable way, leveraging approved connectors and patterns.
Collaborate with backend and data teams to define clean interfaces (APIs/data contracts) and ensure the app layer remains stable as services evolve.
Support integration needs with the broader platform (including Fabric and SQL-based services), ensuring correct data access and lifecycle handling.
Contribute to Power Platform solution architecture and follow standards for environments, security roles, and deployment.
Package and manage changes using Solutions, supporting Dev/Test/Prod promotion and release discipline.
Partner with product owners and SMEs to refine requirements and iterate through prototypes quickly.
Requirements
3–7+ years of experience building business applications, with 2+ years hands-on Power Apps development (or equivalent depth via multiple production implementations).
Strong experience with Power Apps Canvas (and Model-driven if applicable), including:
formulas, components, variables, collections
delegation considerations and performance tuning
responsive design and app lifecycle management
Working knowledge of Power Platform Solutions and environment-based development practices.
Solid understanding of data concepts: relational data basics, filtering, validation, and data integrity.
Strong communication skills and ability to work with both technical teams and business stakeholders.
Familiarity with Power Automate patterns (triggering flows from apps, error handling, approvals).
Experience integrating Power Apps with backend APIs (custom connectors, authentication concepts, API contracts).
Familiarity with Microsoft data platform concepts (Fabric/SQL-based services) and working with structured datasets.
Exposure to testing approaches for Power Apps (test plans, monitoring, telemetry, and support practices).
