We have a near-term need for a Microsoft 365 SharePoint & Power Platform Development/Administrator to onsite support out of Norfolk, VA.

The candidate will support Capability Development (CAPDEV) organizations through hands-on administration, configuration, development, and sustainment of Microsoft SharePoint, Microsoft 365, and Power Platform solutions. Working directly with CAPDEV process owners, operational users, analysts, managers, and information stakeholders, the candidate will assess existing workflows, identify user requirements, and determine opportunities for digitization and automation. Responsibilities include administering and enhancing SharePoint sites, lists, libraries, content types, metadata, views, permissions, navigation, and information structures to improve collaboration, information discoverability, controlled access, structured data capture, and management of authoritative information. Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain Power Apps applications and Power Automate workflows that reduce reliance on manual forms, spreadsheets, email coordination, and other fragmented business processes. Develop integrated solutions using SharePoint, Microsoft Lists, Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse where available, and other approved Microsoft services and connectors. Responsibilities will include configuring forms, business rules, validations, workflow states, role-based access, approvals, notifications, routing, task coordination, and other application logic. Integrate Microsoft 365 and Power Platform solutions with approved enterprise applications and data sources using connectors, APIs, data gateways, structured file exchanges, and other authorized mechanisms, including within secure, classified, restricted, or capability-limited NATO environments. Apply appropriate SharePoint and Power Platform administration, development, security, testing, configuration control, documentation, and lifecycle-management practices. Troubleshoot technical issues, conduct user testing, implement improvements based on operational feedback, and develop user guidance, administrator documentation, and transition materials to support long-term sustainment. Evaluate the effectiveness of digitized workflows, advise leadership on when solutions are appropriate for local Microsoft 365 or Power Platform implementation versus enterprise-level development, and support the transition of successful applications and workflows to enduring enterprise platforms, development teams, or designated sustainment organizations.
