Roberts Sinto is currently seeking a Power Platform Developer & Automation Engineer to join our Team in Grand Ledge, MI
Sinto America is looking for a builder and systems thinker who can turn Microsoft 365, Power Platform, and AI/Copilot from scattered experiments into deployed, measurable efficiency gains across our entire organization.
Across Engineering, Manufacturing, Finance, HR, and Sales, critical daily operations still rely heavily on manual email triage, disconnected Excel trackers, static PDFs, and repetitive data entry between our ERP, CRM, and local files. Your mission is to eliminate these manual bottlenecks—replacing fragile spreadsheets and copy-paste routines with connected, intelligent workflows that free our teams to focus on high-value work.
General
- Productionize High-Impact Workflows: Transition prototypes, manual spreadsheet processes, and one-off scripts into resilient, enterprise-grade solutions using Power Automate, Power Apps, Power Pages, and Dataverse.
- Extend Automation with AI & Copilot: Design and deploy intelligent solutions using Microsoft Copilot Studio, AI Builder, and Azure AI/OpenAI services to handle unstructured data—such as extracting data from PDFs/invoices, triaging emails, and automating complex document workflows where traditional rule-based automation falls short.
- Build Reusable Platform Patterns: Architect standardized templates for document extraction, multi-stage approvals, CRM/ERP data syncing, and reporting so a solution built for one department can be rapidly deployed across others.
- Drive External Product Innovation: Partner with After-Sales and Engineering to build and scale customer-facing solutions, including our planned spare-parts portal integrated directly with live ERP inventory and pricing.
- Own Governance & Architecture: Establish Center of Excellence (CoE) best practices for the M365 ecosystem, including DLP policies, environment management (Dev/Test/Prod), API connectors, and data governance to prevent departmental silos and shadow IT.
What We Want From You
- Power Platform Mastery: 3+ years of hands-on experience designing and deploying production solutions across Power Automate (cloud and desktop flows), Power Apps (Canvas and Model-Driven), Power Pages, Power BI, and Dataverse.
- Applied AI Experience: Proven ability to integrate Microsoft Copilot Studio, AI Builder, or Azure OpenAI / Document Intelligence into business workflows to process unstructured documents, emails, and natural-language queries.
- Integration & Data Skills: Strong working knowledge of REST APIs, custom connectors, JSON, SQL, SharePoint Online, and integrating M365 with enterprise ERP and CRM systems.
- Scripting Savvy: Familiarity with Python, PowerShell, or VBA/Office Scripts to understand, refactor, and migrate legacy one-off scripts into maintainable platform workflows.
- Business Acumen: A consultative mindset—able to sit with a Finance analyst, Manufacturing engineer, or After-Sales specialist, map their manual bottlenecks, and deliver a tool they actually enjoy using.
