Detailed Description From Employer:
Power Apps Developer
Duration: Until end of November 2026
Location: Remote working with occasional travel to the West Midlands (Candidates must be UK based)
Rate: £440.00 per day - Outside IR35
Our leading manufacturing client in the West Midlands is partway through a data platform programme consolidating a large number of source systems into a modern Lakehouse built on Microsoft Fabric. The programme now needs a dedicated Power Apps Developer to design and build an operations and administration application - a "warehouse manager" Front End.
You will own the build of a Power Apps-based administration tool sitting over the Fabric data platform. An outline specification/framework will be provided by the client's technical lead, but the successful candidate will be expected to shape the detail, make sensible design decisions independently, and deliver at pace with minimal hand-holding.
Essential Skills & Experience
- Power Apps expertise: Strong, demonstrable commercial experience building Power Apps, including apps that write back to SQL databases (executing/parameterising SQL statements, updating records) rather than display-only apps.
- Data engineering: Solid grounding as a data engineer - strong SQL, understanding of data warehouse/lakehouse concepts (medallion architecture, reference data, metadata-driven pipelines), and comfort working directly with platform configuration.
- Power BI integration: Experience integrating or embedding Power BI content within Power Apps, and working within the wider Power Platform (eg Power Automate for workflow triggering).
- Microsoft Fabric/Azure: Hands-on familiarity with Microsoft Fabric (or closely comparable Azure data platform experience, eg Synapse/Databricks with Spark notebooks) and an ability to get productive in a Fabric environment quickly.
Screening will include a technical conversation; candidates should be prepared to evidence specific Power Apps builds (ideally with SQL writeback) they have personally delivered.
