SharePoint Engineer

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional Microsoft 365 / SharePoint Online development experience
• Hands‑on production experience with SharePoint Framework (SPFx) - building web parts and extensions, deploying packages to the tenant App Catalogue, tenant‑scoped and site‑scoped solutions
• Proficiency in TypeScript and React - modern React (hooks, functional components), form handling, state management for non‑trivial web parts
• Hands‑on experience with the Microsoft Graph API - user and group management, mail, calendar, SharePoint list operations, drive items; understanding of permission scopes, consent, throttling, and batching
• Hands‑on experience building serverless backends with Azure Functions in C# / .NET - triggers, Timer triggers, and webhook handling; understanding of cold starts, app settings, Key Vault, and Application Insights
• Hands‑on production experience with Azure Logic Apps - designing stateful workflows, approval gates, parallel branches, timer‑based escalations; source‑controlled deployment via ARM/Bicep or Azure DevOps pipelines; debugging via run history and Application Insights
• Solid knowledge of Azure AD (Entra ID) - app registrations, service principals, certificate/secret authentication, scoped API permissions, on‑behalf‑of flow for SPFx to Function to Graph calls
• Strong understanding of the SharePoint Online data model - Lists, Document Libraries, content types, item‑level permissions, hub sites, communication sites
• Experience with PnPjs or equivalent library for SPFx and Graph interactions
• Experience integrating with external REST APIs - authentication, retry and backoff, error handling, centralised integration layers
• Familiarity with Git and CI/CD pipelines for SPFx, Azure Functions, and Logic Apps
• Experience working in agile, remote teams - clear async communication, self‑organisation, proactive updates
• English proficiency at B2+ level - daily written communication with the team and periodic calls with English‑speaking stakeholders

Nice-to-Have

• Experience designing admin‑configurable systems - business rules stored in SharePoint Lists, managed by non‑developers through an admin UI
• Experience with Power Automate standard connectors (for simple notification flows)
• Familiarity with SharePoint governance - App Catalogue management, tenant‑level configuration, security group design
• Experience with multi‑tenant or multi‑entity enterprise solutions (HR, finance, or operations platforms across multiple legal entities or jurisdictions)
• Experience testing SPFx, Azure Functions, and Logic Apps code (Jest, xUnit, integration tests, Logic Apps workflow unit testing)
• Experience with aviation, HR, or regulated‑industry applications
• Experience with AI‑assisted development tools (Cursor, Claude, Copilot) and willingness to leverage them in daily work

Responsibilities

• Build and deploy SPFx web parts and extensions covering the company‑wide hub, department sites, and the personal employee section - including the pending actions panel, role‑targeted quick links, employee directory, events calendar, and admin configuration web parts
• Build the self‑service applicant portal and the employee‑facing forms for the Onboarding, Offboarding, and Holiday / PTO workflows
• Design and implement Azure Logic Apps (Standard) workflows for long‑running HR processes - onboarding, offboarding, and leave approvals - covering approval gates, parallel department branches, timer‑based reminders, and escalation paths
• Design and implement Azure Functions in C# / .NET that orchestrate all process automation -- workflow progression, business rule evaluation, approval chains, timer‑based reminders and escalations, and SharePoint webhook handling
• Implement all Microsoft Graph API interactions - user and group management, email dispatch, calendar operations, SharePoint list operations, and Azure AD provisioning and deactivation
• Design and implement the configurable business rules layer - leave entitlements, bank holiday calendars, concurrent leave limits, approval chains, and escalation thresholds, all stored in SharePoint Lists and managed through an admin web part
• Implement the external REST API integration with the Client's operational system within a centralised Azure Function, controlling call frequency to stay within the contracted token allowance
• Configure SharePoint permissions, hub and site associations, and Azure AD group mappings in line with the governance model defined in the project's Vision & Scope document
• Set up CI/CD pipelines for SPFx package builds and Azure Function deployments
• Produce and maintain technical documentation (architecture notes, deployment scripts, API specifications, and a handover package) so that the Client's internal IT team can operate and extend the platform independently after delivery
• Collaborate closely with the PM and BA on requirements clarification and design handoff
• Identify and flag technical risks early - particularly around Graph API throttling, external API token consumption, and SharePoint permission propagation

About the Project

The scope of the project is the delivery of the Client's company‑wide SharePoint intranet and a set of internal process automations integrated into it. The platform is built entirely on the Microsoft 365 ecosystem that the Client already operates, using SharePoint Online for the intranet, SPFx web parts for the user interface, and Azure Functions with the Microsoft Graph API for all backend orchestration and process automation. The developer hired into this role will be responsible for building the full solution end‑to‑end - SPFx web parts on the frontend and Logic Apps/Azure Functions + Graph API orchestration on the backend.
