________________________________________
Position Overview
We are seeking a Power Apps Developer to support the STORM Project Office under PAE Fires, focused on delivering and sustaining Power Platform solutions that directly enable acquisition, financial tracking, and operational workflows.
This role is execution-heavy, not theoretical. You will be maintaining, enhancing, and scaling existing Canvas Apps backed by SharePoint Lists, while integrating Power Automate workflows and supporting Power BI reporting.
If you can’t troubleshoot broken flows, fix bad data structures, or optimize a sluggish app—you won’t last in this role.

Data & Backend (SharePoint)
• Design, manage, and optimize SharePoint Lists as application data sources
• Implement data structures that scale (avoid the typical SharePoint dumpster fires)
