This is a high-impact role with genuine architectural ownership across a strategically important platform. We are seeking a Senior Microsoft Dynamics Developer with proven architectural capability to lead the design, delivery and assurance of complex Dynamics 365 and Power Platform solutions. This is a senior, hands-on role that combines deep technical development with solution architecture: you will shape best-practice patterns, scope and validate solution designs, oversee a multi-disciplinary delivery team and act as the technical authority across an estate with multiple integrations into Azure services and third-party systems. You will work closely with product owners, enterprise architects, integration engineers and business stakeholders to ensure that solutions are scalable, maintainable, secure and aligned to the long-term technology roadmap. The successful candidate will balance pragmatic delivery with architectural rigour, maintaining a high-quality code base while providing surety and oversight across concurrent workstreams. Key Responsibilities Architecture & Design Design end-to-end solutions across Dynamics 365, Power Apps, Power Automate and Dataverse, ensuring alignment with enterprise architecture standards. Scope, estimate and validate solution designs, challenging requirements where appropriate and recommending the right balance between configuration, low-code and pro-code approaches. Define and enforce best-practice patterns for solution structure, ALM, environment strategy, security models and data architecture within Dataverse. Produce and maintain architecture artefacts including high-level designs, integration diagrams, data models and decision records. Development & Delivery Lead hands-on development across Dynamics 365 (model-driven and customer engagement apps), Power Apps (canvas and model-driven) and Power Automate cloud flows. Build and extend solutions using plugins, custom connectors, PCF controls, JavaScript/TypeScript, C#/.NET and the Dataverse Web API. Oversee high-quality delivery by setting coding standards, reviewing pull requests and ensuring test coverage, performance and security non-functional requirements are met. Maintain and curate a healthy, well-documented code base, actively reducing technical debt and refactoring legacy components where needed. Integration & Azure Design and implement integrations between Dynamics, Dataverse and a wide range of internal and external systems using Azure services such as Azure Functions, Logic Apps, API Management, Service Bus and Event Grid. Ensure integration patterns are resilient, observable and secure, applying appropriate authentication, throttling, retry and error-handling strategies. Work with platform and DevOps teams to embed CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions) for solution deployment, automated testing and environment promotion. Oversight & Assurance Provide architectural oversight and technical surety across concurrent projects, acting as the senior point of escalation for design and delivery decisions. Mentor and coach developers and junior architects, raising the technical bar across the team. Engage with vendors, partners and third-party suppliers to assure the quality of externally delivered work. Contribute to the technology roadmap, identifying opportunities to modernise, consolidate or retire components of the estate. Essential Experience Significant hands-on experience as a Dynamics 365 developer, with demonstrable progression into a senior or architect-level role. Deep expertise across the Power Platform: Power Apps (canvas and model-driven), Power Automate and the Dataverse platform, including security roles, business rules, business process flows and the Dataverse data model. Strong development skills in C#/.NET, JavaScript/TypeScript, plugins, custom workflow activities and the Dataverse Web API and SDK. Proven experience designing and delivering integrations using Azure services (Functions, Logic Apps, API Management, Service Bus, Key Vault, Application Insights). Solid understanding of ALM for Power Platform, including solution layering, managed vs unmanaged solutions, Power Platform Build Tools and pipeline-based deployment. Experience operating in complex environments with multiple integrations, regulatory or compliance constraints, and concurrent delivery streams. Demonstrable architectural capability: producing HLDs/LLDs, leading design authority discussions and validating solutions against best-practice patterns. Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts for non-technical audiences. Desirable Relevant Microsoft certifications such as PL-600 (Solution Architect), PL-400 (Developer), MB-500 or AZ-305. Experience with Power Pages, Copilot Studio and AI Builder. Familiarity with Azure Synapse, Microsoft Fabric or Dataverse-to-data-lake patterns for analytics and reporting. Exposure to Agile/Scrum delivery and scaled frameworks such as SAFe. Benefits: 4 x Death in service cover Single Healthcare cover Pension salary Exchange scheme Paid holidays This role requires you to be based in the office in Glasgow 4 days per week so you must be within commutable distance or be open to relocating. There is no sponsorship offered for this role so you must have a valid right to work in the UK.
