## Description

We are looking for a Power Platform Software Developer to lead the build of prototypes and proofs of concept during a short discovery. You will turn discovery findings and architecture decisions into working service-desk and chatbot demonstrations, and guide a more junior developer.

What you will do

 * Lead the design, configuration and development of the discovery prototypes.
 * Turn prioritised requirements and architecture decisions into a focused technical backlog.
 * Design the prototype's solution structure, data model, components and development standards.
 * Build or direct the build of a structured request intake form; service-desk queues, agent views and request statuses; service level and deadline tracking; dashboards and reporting; approval and escalation workflows; and a chatbot or guided interaction for a document submission scenario.
 * Implement automated checks for content quality and submission completeness, such as formatting errors, missing source data, raw links, incomplete footnotes and deadlines below the agreed standard.
 * Apply security roles, error handling, auditability and configuration management.
 * Work with the architect to validate integration, security, deployment and support assumptions.
 * Provide technical direction, quality assurance and peer review for the junior developer.
 * Demonstrate progress at the end of weeks two and three, and build in stakeholder feedback.
 * Document prototype limitations, technical debt, reusable components and what is needed to move to production.
 * Contribute to effort estimates, implementation phases and the recommended future delivery team.
