Power Platform Developer - Software Developer

Frontier Door & Cabinet•Tacoma, WA

2h•$95,000 - $130,000•Hybrid

About The Position

The Power Platform Developer is a business partner and builder based at Frontier's Tacoma, WA headquarters, working in a hybrid capacity. This role works directly with product owners across the business to identify what should be developed and why, helps shape and prioritize a backlog, and then designs, builds, and maintains applications across the full Microsoft Power Platform suite — Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, Power Pages, and Dataverse. The role is also expected to bring AI capabilities into that development work, using AI tools to speed up delivery and improve the quality of what gets built. This position expands on business-partner work currently shared informally among IT leadership and takes on more direct ownership of that relationship for each supported product owner.

Requirements

3+ years of hands-on development experience across Power Apps (canvas and model-driven) and Power Automate.
Working experience with Power BI (data modeling, DAX, report/dashboard design) and Dataverse (or Common Data Service).
Solid understanding of Microsoft 365 administration concepts, SharePoint architecture, and Entra ID (Azure AD) fundamentals.
Experience with connectors, custom connectors, and REST/OData API integration.
Demonstrated ability to work directly with business stakeholders to gather requirements, build a backlog, and prioritize competing requests — this role is expected to help shape what gets built, not just build what it is told.
Genuine curiosity about AI and a track record of using AI tools (for example, Copilot, ChatGPT, or Claude) to work faster or solve problems more effectively.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to translate business requirements into technical solutions.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable presenting to non-technical stakeholders and facilitating requirements discussions.
Organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities while meeting deadlines and milestones.
Ability to work independently and collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
Good judgment, discretion, and ability to handle confidential information appropriately.
