This role focuses on Power Apps development within an established application portfolio, including resolving production issues, implementing enhancements, and supporting ongoing modernization efforts. The PowerApps developer should have a strong development background which elevates PowerApps out of the low code / no code solutions and translates to Power Automate, Power Pages, and Power FX. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working within existing applications they may not have originally developed, troubleshooting issues, understanding current functionality, and implementing improvements while maintaining application stability. This position may occasionally assist with Power BI reporting, testing activities, and broader Power Platform support efforts depending on team priorities and workload demands.

  • Design and create relational data models, business rules, and security roles within Dataverse.
  • Develop robust Power Automate flows optimized for error handling, retry, and exception patterns.
  • Write and maintain Power Fx, JavaScript (form scripting/Power Apps Component Framework (PCF) optional), React, and utilize GitLabs for code management and documentation.
  • Familiarity with VS Code, Node.js, PowerShell, and other development tools or environments.
  • Organize and analyze incoming requirements, identify minimum viable product, and collaborate with leadership to identify schedule milestones.
  • Work collaboratively with clients, with varying degrees of autonomy, to develop, sustain, and enhance PowerApp solutions.
  • Review and understand existing application logic and architecture to support sustainment activities
  • Support multiple applications and priorities in a sustainment-focused environment
  • Perform testing, validation, debugging, and issue resolution across applications
  • Follow development best practices using reusable components, custom components, custom pages, and modern controls; ensure performance optimization and elegant UX/UI.
  • Integrate with Dataverse, SharePoint, Microsoft 365, Teams, OneDrive, and external APIs (via custom connectors).
  • Prepare requests to deploy using Solutions (managed/unmanaged), environment variables, connection references, and pipelines across multiple environments.
  • Perform solution reviews for quality and compliance.
  • Contribute to sustainment activities via incident remediation, approved enhancements, release notes, documentation, support processes, and incident response.
  • Ensure compliance with security and governance policies within the Power Platform ecosystem.
  • Occasionally assist with Power BI reporting, dashboards, and data analysis efforts as needed

Required Qualifications:

  • U.S. Citizenship required.
  • CAC must have been held in past 2 years, current CAC preferred
  • Background investigation to level of Secret
  • Security+ or Sec+ CE Certification
  • 5+ years of experience working with Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages).
