This role is heavily focused on:
  • Building model-driven Power Apps and workflows
  • Developing API-based integrations between systems
  • Designing cloud-native solutions in Azure

The ideal candidate is someone who can turn complex business processes into simple, scalable, and maintainable automated solutions.
Key Responsibilities
Workflow Modernization (Primary Focus)
  • Replace legacy workflow systems with model-driven Power Apps and Power Automate solutions
  • Design and implement standardized automation patterns across the bank
  • Build scalable, reusable workflows using Dataverse and Power Platform
  • Partner with business teams to streamline and automate critical processes

  • Connect internal systems and third-party platforms securely and reliably
  • Perform data mapping and transformation across systems

  • Proven ability to design and deliver API integrations (REST/JSON)
  • Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices
  • Ability to simplify complex processes into efficient automated solutions

Nice to Have
  • Experience in regulated industries (banking, finance)
  • Familiarity with ServiceNow or RPA tools
  • Exposure to SharePoint

What We Value
  • Practical experience delivering real automation outcomes, not certifications
  • A focus on standardization, scalability, and simplicity
  • Ability to drive change and modernize legacy processes

  • Minimum of five years software development experience required
  • Hands-on software trouble-shooting experience.
  • Knowledge of applicable data privacy practices and laws.
