Repost - OPGT MOD 2 - 1xSoft. Dev.(Snr) - 184+497 Days - [PM&Enhan]

Project Overview

The OPGT Modernization initiative is essential to the ongoing provision of services to Ontarians who cannot care for themselves and have no one else able to act on their behalf. Phase 1 of this IT project implemented a cloud based, fully integrated, Microsoft Dynamics 365 solution to replace end of life case, financial, and document management systems. Phase 1 of the solution was launched as a minimum viable product (MVP). The Phase 2 project will deliver enhancements to the MVP with additional workflows, automation, and new features and functionality.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and implement configurations, extensions, and custom components within Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CE) and related modules.
• Implement and support integrations between Microsoft Dynamics 365, enterprise systems, and external applications using approved integration patterns and tools.
• Produce unit tested, performant, and maintainable code that meets quality, security, and operational standards.
• Support system, integration, and user acceptance testing by resolving defects, validating data accuracy, and addressing technical issues.
• Participate in deployment activities and provide technical support during post go live stabilization to ensure solution reliability.
• Contribute to technical documentation and provide knowledge transfer to support ongoing operations and long term solution sustainability.

Qualifications & Requirements

REQUIRED

• Must be able to work 5 days onsite per week
• 5+ years of experience developing and supporting enterprise applications, including Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CE).
• Proven experience implementing configurations, customizations, and integrations within complex enterprise environments.
• Experience supporting iterative or enhancement-driven delivery approaches, including post-Minimum Viable Product (MVP) solution evolution.
• Experience working within structured governance and security frameworks.
• Strong problem-solving, documentation, and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively within technical delivery teams.
• Demonstrated experience working with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O), particularly in integration or data-interaction contexts, is strongly preferred.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience developing, configuring, and extending Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CE) solutions.
• Knowledge of Power Platform components, including Power Apps and Power Automate.
• Understanding of Dataverse, platform extensibility, and integration capabilities.
• Familiarity with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (F&O), including exposure to integrations, data structures, or configuration concepts, is considered an asset.
• Strong experience with C#, JavaScript, Power FX, and related development technologies.
• Experience implementing integrations and data flows across enterprise systems.
• Understanding of data validation, transformation, and performance considerations.
• Familiarity with Azure based application hosting and integration concepts.
• Understanding of CI/CD and DevOps practices in enterprise delivery environments.
• Experience working in cross functional delivery teams comprising internal and vendor resources.
• Ability to follow approved architecture standards, security practices, and development guidelines.
• Pro-Code Batch & Integration Architecture: Proven experience architecting high-volume data ingestion and batch processing pipelines using Azure Functions, Azure Data Factory (ADF), or SSIS. Experience favoring pro-code services over low-code tools (such as Power Automate) to mitigate enterprise-scale performance bottlenecks is highly valued.
