Job description

Role Overview

Protiviti is expanding its Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations practice. We are seeking a hands‑on, technically rigorous Senior Consultant / Lead Technical Consultant to drive enterprise ERP implementations, complex third‑party integrations, and cloud migration initiatives.

This role requires a practitioner who looks beyond standard configurations and custom forms to build enterprise‑grade architectures. You will be responsible for low‑level X++ solution development, Azure integration pipelines, Data Management Framework (DMF) operations, performance forensics, and automated DevOps deployments across global engagements.

Key Responsibilities

1. Core Development & Technical Architecture

• Design and build enterprise‑grade extensions using modern X++ practices (Chain of Command, Event Handlers, Delegates) strictly adhering to extension frameworks with zero overlayering.
• Develop, customize, and extend Application Object Tree (AOT) components, including tables, data entities, views, queries, forms, menus, and business logic classes.
• Support and execute legacy code and schema migrations from Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 / AX 2012 R2/R3 to D365 F&O using LCS code upgrade tools and structural refactoring patterns.
• Build, customize, and optimize complex SSRS reports, electronic reporting formats, and SysOperation framework batch jobs.

2. Enterprise Cloud Integrations

• Design, implement, and maintain decoupled, secure integration architectures using the Microsoft Azure stack: Azure Logic Apps, Azure Functions, Azure Service Bus, Event Grid, and REST/OData APIs.
• Configure and maintain Dual-Write and virtual entity frameworks to synchronize master and transactional data seamlessly between D365 F&O, Microsoft Dataverse, and Power Platform applications.
• Build high‑performance file‑based and real‑time recurring data integrations connecting third‑party banking, logistics, tax engines, and external SaaS platforms.

3. Data Migration (DMF) & Cutover Governance

• Build and maintain custom Data Entities, composite entities, and staging tables via the Data Management Framework (DMF/DIXF) for high‑volume data operations.
• Execute data cleansing, transformation mapping, validation scripts, and delta loads across DEV, UAT, and Production tiers.
• Plan and support cutover sequencing, mock runs, rollback strategies, and hypercare support during go‑live phases.

4. Performance Forensics & System Optimization

• Conduct diagnostic root‑cause analysis on system latencies, batch deadlocks, long‑running queries, and integration timeouts.
• Profile system performance using Trace Parser, SQL Server Profiler, and LCS environment monitoring tools to implement query and indexing tuning.
• Enforce set‑based database logic (insert_recordset, update_recordset) and thread‑level parallel processing within batch jobs.

5. ALM, DevOps & Environment Management

• Manage source control and release management in Azure DevOps (TFVC/Git), enforcing branching strategies, build validation pipelines, and structured code reviews.
• Perform package builds, releases, and environment maintenance across multi‑box topologies (DEV, BUILD, TEST/UAT, PROD) using Lifecycle Services (LCS) and Power Platform Admin Center (PPAC).
• Implement and maintain automated regression test scripts using the Regression Suite Automation Tool (RSAT).

Candidate Qualifications & Criteria

Minimum 4 years of direct, hands‑on technical development experience in Microsoft Dynamics 365 F&O / AX 2012. (Total IT experience: 5 to 8 years).

Implementation Exposure

Participation in at least 1 to 2 full‑lifecycle D365 F&O implementations or large‑scale AX‑to‑D365 migration projects.

Integration Knowledge

Hands‑on experience developing integrations using Azure Logic Apps, REST/OData web services, Service Bus, or Dual‑Write.

Diagnostics & Tools

Practical working knowledge of Trace Parser, SQL profiling, LCS Environment Monitoring, and Azure DevOps ALM pipelines.

Education

B.E. / B.Tech / MCA / BCA in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related engineering discipline.

Mandatory Certification

Microsoft Certified: Dynamics 365: Finance and Operations Apps Developer Associate (MB-500).
