• Proficiency in translating business processes into detailed user stories and low code solutions, and adept at using backlog management tools and defining acceptance criteria.
• Solid understanding of Microsoft 365 integration patterns - Teams, SharePoint, Outlook - and familiarity with common connectors and licensing considerations.
• Working knowledge of security and governance within the Power Platform: DLP, permission management, information classification, environment administration and solution management.
• Experience with Agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) and a track record of supporting iterative releases and promoting collaborative work environments.
• Skill in configuring and providing support for Microsoft 365 solutions.
• Strong grasp of business processes and the role digital solutions play in enhancement and optimisation.

• Knowledge of ServiceNow or ITSM integration patterns in a Digital Workplace context.
• Awareness of WCAG accessibility and inclusive design principles.
• Familiarity with Power Platform CLI (PAC CLI) for advanced lifecycle management.
• Understanding of the Power Platform Adoption Framework.

Outcomes & Measures of Success

• Value & adoption: measurable time savings or experience improvements; active usage and satisfaction of target user groups.
• Quality & reliability: incidents reduced, automated checks in place, repeatable patterns reused across teams.
• Compliance & cost: solutions comply with governance; conscious licensing choices minimise total cost of ownership.

Growth & Development

• This role maps to Framework Level 2-3 with a clear pathway to Senior Product Engineer by expanding solution breadth, coaching peers, standardising practices and shaping platform patterns.

Nicetohave Certifications

• PL 100 / PL 200 (App Maker / Functional Consultant)
• PL 400 (Developer) or equivalent practical competence

What You'll Be Doing

• Design, build and maintain low code apps, flows and data models using Power Platform, applying reusable patterns, accessibility guidance and M365 integration best practices.
• Implement robust integrations with enterprise systems and connectors, including service management tooling, with appropriate error handling and logging.
• Contribute to backlog refinement: translate user needs into clear user stories with acceptance criteria, estimate, sequence and deliver aligned to sprint goals.
• Own quality for your changes: build test plans, peer review, and introduce automation where applicable.

Security, Compliance & Operations

• Apply security and governance controls (DLP, environment strategy, permissions, data retention and information protection labels) and support audit readiness.
• Release safely via established change processes; prepare rollback plans and deployment checklists.
• Monitor and support live solutions, analyse incidents and implement preventative improvements.

Collaboration & Ways of Working

• Work within an across functional Agile team, actively contributing to ceremonies and continuous improvement; mentor juniors informally through pairing and reviews.
• Engage stakeholders to validate needs, demo increments and drive adoption through clear guidance and enablement materials.

Alongside a negotiable salary depending on experience, you'll enjoy 28 days holiday plus bank holidays, a market leading pension scheme and enhanced parental leave.
