The End User Technology Productivity Tools team is responsible for enterprise collaboration and productivity platforms across Microsoft 365. We're a cross-functional group of engineers and specialists who design, administer, and support capabilities that enable our employees to collaborate securely and efficiently.

Ideal Profile:

We're targeting a strong SharePoint administrator with coding chops -someone who is confident with tenant-level administration and governance, and equally comfortable writing PowerShell, building automations, and using Graph/REST to craft pragmatic, unique solutions to business problems.

Project Description:

We are seeking a SharePoint Engineer II to administer and engineer SharePoint Online within Microsoft 365. This role focuses on site architecture, governance, permissions, and add-in/app catalog lifecycle, and will help drive classic-to-modern migrations. The engineer will also script and automate operational tasks, integrate with Microsoft 365 services via Graph and SharePoint REST APIs, and partner with business teams to build secure, scalable, and supportable solutions.

Position Summary / Job Description:

• SharePoint Online Administration: Configure and manage site collections, hubs, site templates, term store, content types, app catalog/add-ins, sharing policies, retention/labels, and search; maintain governance and lifecycle at scale.
• Site Design & Information Architecture: Partner with business owners to design modern sites (communication & team sites), navigation, and metadata to improve findability and adoption.
• Permissions & Security: Implement role-based access, groups, and external sharing controls; audit and remediate permission drift, and support least-privilege patterns.
• Migration Support (Classic Modern): Assist with inventory, assessment, mapping (classic pages, web parts, lists, workflows), content moves, and post-migration hardening and training.
• Scripting & Automation: Build and maintain PowerShell (PnP/Graph) and Azure Automation runbooks for provisioning, policy enforcement, reporting, and compliance.
• API Management & Integration: Use Microsoft Graph and SharePoint REST API to integrate sites with enterprise workflows, data sources, and approval processes; create lightweight extensions.
• Troubleshooting & Escalations: Provide 3rd-level support for complex SharePoint and M365 collaboration issues; perform change management, root cause analysis, and incident response.
• Training & Documentation: Create SOPs/runbooks, admin standards, migration playbooks, and quick-start guides; deliver targeted enablement to site owners and admins.
• Collaboration & Influence: Work with architects to recommend new capabilities and present proposals to leadership; mentor junior admins/engineers as needed.

Skills Overview:

Top Five Required Skills & Experience:

• 5+ years deploying, managing, and administering SharePoint Online in Microsoft 365 (tenant-level and site-level governance, site provisioning, app catalog/add-ins, search, security & compliance).
• 3+ years hands-on PowerShell (PnP/Graph) and Azure Automation for operational scripting, reporting, and policy enforcement.
• 3+ years working with Microsoft Graph and SharePoint REST API to integrate, automate, and extend SharePoint solutions.
• Experience supporting classic-to-modern migrations (content inventory, page modernization, web part remediation, workflow replacement) and post-migration stabilization.
• ITSM experience (e.g., ServiceNow) with strong incident, change, and problem management practices.

Preferred / Nice-to-Have:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.
• Experience with Azure AD/Entra ID (dynamic groups, conditional access), Power Platform governance, and cross-service integrations (Teams, OneDrive, Viva).
• Exposure to cloud platforms (Azure/AWS/Google Cloud Platform) and CI/CD for infra as code (e.g., GitHub Actions/Azure DevOps) for SharePoint automation.
• Experience with enterprise monitoring/analytics tools (e.g., Nexthink) to inform adoption and performance improvements.
