About the Role
Overview

Microsoft Dataverse is a secure, cloud-based data platform that underpins the Microsoft Power Platform and Dynamics 365 applications. It provides a scalable and compliant environment for storing and managing business data in structured tables, enabling both organizations and citizen developers to build low-code applications, automate workflows, and integrate with services like Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power BI.

As part of the Dataverse Core Data Platform team, you’ll work on the foundational metadata functionality that powers entity definitions and solution transport across environments. Our mission is to maintain and evolve the frameworks that enable customizations in Dataverse—critical for flexibility and scalability across millions of apps. The next big challenge? Evolving these frameworks to respond to the agentic revolution, where AI-driven automation and intelligent agents redefine how solutions are built and deployed. You’ll tackle complex engineering problems, influence foundational architecture, and help shape the future of low-code and AI-first development—all while growing your career in a collaborative, inclusive environment.
