Job description

Training & Development Specialist (M365 & Teams Services), #1052

Microsoft 365 Microsoft Purview Teams Services

Location: Remote-First
Clearance: US citizenship required. Must be able to obtain and maintain a DHS Public Trust

A Role with Purpose

Dev Technology Group is seeking a Training & Development Specialist (M365, Purview & Teams Services) to support enterprise user enablement, training development, and documentation for Microsoft 365 within a large federal environment.

This role supports the adoption of Microsoft 365 G5 capabilities, with a focus on Microsoft Purview (e.g., Sensitivity Labels, Data Loss Prevention, retention policies) and the enterprise rollout of Microsoft Teams Phone.

This position helps translate complex technical capabilities into clear, actionable guidance for end users and support staff, supporting adoption of compliance-driven behaviors such as labeling, secure sharing, and voice/calling capabilities in Teams.

The role works closely with engineering, compliance, and operations teams to align training with real-world system configurations and mission needs.

Technical Responsibilities and Delivery

This role serves as a contributor supporting training development, user enablement, and documentation efforts for Microsoft 365 services.

You will develop and maintain training materials and supporting documentation across Microsoft 365 workloads, including Purview compliance features and Microsoft Teams Phone capabilities.

Responsibilities include creating user-focused content that promotes understanding of data classification, secure collaboration practices, and enterprise communication tools.

You will collaborate with technical teams to translate system configurations, policies, and requirements into clear, accessible materials for a variety of audiences.

You will also support organizational change management activities, training rollout efforts, and assist with delivery of training through multiple formats, including live sessions and self-service resources.

Who Thrives Here

Individuals who succeed in this role are strong communicators who enjoy translating complex technical concepts into clear, practical guidance that users can easily understand and apply. They take pride in creating high-quality, well-organized materials that support consistent user experiences across large-scale environments.

They are detail-oriented and structured in their approach, ensuring that training content accurately reflects system configurations, compliance requirements, and real-world usage scenarios. They are comfortable working across multiple content streams and maintaining alignment as systems and policies evolve.

They collaborate effectively with technical teams to gather information and validate accuracy, while also keeping the end-user experience front and center. They are proactive in identifying gaps in user understanding and developing materials that improve adoption and reduce confusion.

They are adaptable and organized, able to balance multiple priorities such as training development, documentation updates, and rollout support in a dynamic, mission-driven environment.

Opportunity To Make an Impact

This role provides the opportunity to directly influence how users adopt and effectively use Microsoft 365 services across the enterprise.

You will play a key role in enabling secure and compliant collaboration by ensuring users understand and apply Microsoft Purview policies and Teams capabilities in their daily work.

Through the development of clear, effective training and documentation, you will help improve user adoption, reduce support burden, and contribute to the overall success of enterprise technology initiatives.

  • Experience supporting enterprise software adoption or rollout efforts
  • Excellent written communication, organization, and attention to detail
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

Preferred Qualifications
