• Leverage Power Apps to create and integrate low-code solutions for business processes;
• Collaborate with functional area experts to gather, analyze, and document technical and user requirements. Participate in meetings related to ICT projects when appropriate;
• Conduct analysis of workflows and business processes to recommend solutions that enhance operational efficiency;
• Develop detailed technical specifications and system documentation for new features or modifications to custom-developed databases, websites, and other IT systems;
• Prepare and coordinate system changes for deployment, including conducting demos, coordinating user training, and ensuring readiness for release;
• Administer and maintain the organizational GitHub repositories, including managing user access, coordinating external developer permissions, overseeing code reviews and merging, maintaining branch policies, and ensuring the secure publishing of code;
• Maintain and optimize databases, including stored procedures, views, and custom reports;
• Create intuitive user interfaces and front-end applications for data entry and management;
• Develop and maintain training materials, user guides, and other documentation for end-users;

We offer full-time meaningful work in a professional, friendly, and diverse office environment which is easily accessible by transit and right next door to Park Royal Mall. We enjoy having occasional lunches together as a team – pizza is one of our favorites.

This is a full-time, permanent position with most of the work being done between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. However, the nature of this position is such that occasional work outside of those hours, including weekend work, may be required.

FNESC requires that all FNESC staff be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 for two reasons: First, because FNESC takes its responsibility to create and maintain a healthy workplace very seriously. And, second, because many of our staff attend First Nations communities in-person. Some First Nations have unique requirements and vulnerabilities related to communicable diseases like COVID-19, and FNESC always respects the needs of First Nations.

We thank everyone who applies for their interest in FNESC. Unfortunately, due to the volume of applications, we are only able to respond to those applicants who are selected for an interview. We cannot respond to telephone or email inquiries.
