Responsibilities:

• Design, implement, and maintain integration solutions leveraging Microsoft Dataverse as a core data platform.

• Develop Durable Azure Functions for stateful, long-running serverless workflows, ensuring resilience, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.

• Employ Azure Logic Apps, Azure Service Bus, and Azure Event Grid for orchestrating complex integration patterns and asynchronous messaging.

• Integrate with various Microsoft Power Platform components, Azure services, third-party APIs, and on-premise systems in a secure and efficient manner.

• Collaborate with data architects and data engineers to define and enforce data integration standards, security, and governance within the Dataverse environment.

• Utilize Azure Key Vault, Managed Identities, and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to ensure secure access and authentication for integration endpoints.

• Implement best practices for test-driven development (TDD) and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, ensuring code quality and rapid delivery.

• Monitor and optimize integration performance using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Log Analytics for proactive troubleshooting and incident resolution.

• Profile and tune durable functions to improve throughput, latency, and cost efficiency.

• Work closely with cross-functional stakeholders (developers, data scientists, solution architects, product managers, and business analysts) to understand requirements, provide technical guidance, and deliver end-to-end integration solutions.

Qualifications:

• Deep experience with Microsoft Azure services, especially Azure Functions (including Durable Functions), Azure Logic Apps, Azure Service Bus, and Azure Event Grid.

• Strong understanding of Microsoft Dataverse, including entities, data modeling, Common Data Model (CDM), and integration with Power Platform components.

• Proficiency in coding languages such as C#, JavaScript/TypeScript, or Python for developing serverless functions and integration components.

• Familiarity with RESTful APIs, OData endpoints, OAuth 2.0, and Azure Active Directory (AAD) for secure communication and authentication.

• Experience with DevOps practices, including Git-based version control, CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions), and automated testing frameworks.

• Understanding of modern integration patterns (e.g., event-driven architecture, message queuing, publish/subscribe) and cloud-native design principles.

• Excellent problem-solving abilities, analytical thinking, and a keen attention to detail.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively in a cross-functional, diverse team environment.

• Self-driven, proactive, and capable of working under minimal supervision, balancing multiple priorities in a dynamic setting.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience integrating with Microsoft Dynamics 365 CE/CRM or other enterprise business applications.
