Company Overview
Nano IS Western Cape (Pty) Ltd builds and supports Microsoft Power Platform solutions that power Nano Fibre UK’s fibre-to-the-home rollout. We engineer and extend Power Apps, Dataverse schemas, Power Automate flows, Power Pages portals, Power BI dataflows—and integrate with SQL Server, Azure services and custom C# components—to equip our installation engineers, finance, H&S, fleet and storeroom teams, and customer service staff with the tools they need every day. As we mature our platform, you’ll help formalize our governance, CI/CD pipelines and API-driven integrations (including webhooks, custom connectors and RESTful services).
Role Overview
As a Power Platform Engineer, you’ll design, implement and support:
- Power Apps (canvas & model-driven) for field data capture, inventory management and service requests
- Dataverse tables, relationships, business rules and plugin logic (C#) to model installation, finance and compliance data
- Power Automate flows (scheduled, instant and event-driven) with HTTP/Webhook triggers, custom connectors and API consumption
- Power Pages portals and SharePoint Online integrations for internal dashboards and external service portals
- Power BI reports, dataflows, DAX models and direct SQL Server/Azure Synapse queries for real-time operational analytics
Your work will ensure reliable data ingestion (via Power Query dataflows, Azure Data Factory or SSIS), robust automation between systems, and high-quality reporting—all while we establish best practices around environments, solution ALM (Azure DevOps/Git), security roles, and scalable solution patterns.
Key Responsibilities
- Solution Development & Integration
- Architect, develop and deploy Power Apps solutions; extend with C# plugins and PCF controls.

- Reporting & Analytics
- Develop Power BI dashboards and paginated reports; author dataflows with Power Query and T-SQL.
- Optimize DAX measures and DirectQuery models against SQL Server/Azure Synapse for performance.
- Data Management & Quality
- Design and govern Dataverse tables; enforce validation rules, business logic and data-quality alerts.
- Implement ETL/ELT pipelines (Azure Data Factory, SSIS or Power Query) for installation, finance and fleet datasets.
- Governance & DevOps
- Define environment strategy, ALM/CI-CD pipelines using Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions.
- Establish naming conventions, solution segmentation and version control best practices.
- Support & Continuous Improvement
- Provide L2/L3 support for production applications, reports and automations; troubleshoot C# plugins or API errors.
- Rapidly prototype POCs—e.g., custom Azure Function integrations or React-based web components—and iterate based on feedback.
- Collaboration & Enablement
- Partner with UK-based operations teams to gather requirements and align on release cadences.
- Conduct training sessions and demos; produce documentation, runbooks and code samples.
