SharePoint & Power Platform Engineer

Key Responsibilities

• Support the assessment and migration of sites, documents, metadata, permissions and workflows from SG-DCS, SharePoint 2013 and other legacy environments to SharePoint Online.

• Use migration tools such as ShareGate or Microsoft Migration Manager to run migration jobs, review results, correct errors and validate migrated content.

• Configure and maintain SharePoint Online sites, document libraries, lists, metadata, views, navigation and permissions.

• Build and enhance Power Apps and Power Automate workflows for straightforward business processes and productivity needs.

• Develop or modify lightweight SharePoint components and integrations using SPFx, JavaScript or TypeScript where required.

• Assist with discovery workshops, content inventories, migration mapping, testing, cutover preparation and post-migration support.

• Troubleshoot migration, access, workflow and application issues, escalating complex problems when necessary.

• Prepare clear technical documentation, test scripts, user guides and migration status updates.

• Work directly with users to validate migrated content, gather feedback and make iterative improvements.

• Learn and apply relevant Microsoft 365, Power Platform and development practices with guidance from more experienced team members.

• Familiarity with source control and basic development practices is helpful; deep expertise in Azure architecture, CI/CD or enterprise integration is not required.

• Familiarity with Microsoft Lists, Forms, Dataverse, Power BI or Microsoft 365 Copilot.

• Basic awareness of records management, retention, access control and information governance.

• Experience working in government, regulated or security-conscious environments.

What Success Looks Like

• Migration issues are identified early, investigated systematically and resolved or escalated promptly.

• Power Apps and Power Automate solutions are simple, reliable, maintainable and useful to business teams.

• Users receive clear support, documentation and guidance before and after migration.

• The engineer steadily builds deeper SharePoint and Power Platform capability through hands-on delivery, feedback and continuous learning.
