Job Description

The Product

The rapid growth of the Microsoft Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Virtual Agent, Power BI), is fueled by organizations across the globe investing in leveraging low-code/no-code development models to accelerate their digital transformation ambitions. Power Platform is a strategic new growth area for Microsoft, but more importantly, it is a disruptor technology that is giving Citizen access to broader set of users in an enterprise, to create next generation of business productivity software via radically simplified experience and without requiring extensive and costly training. It is transforming careers of 'citizen developers', making pro-developers far more productive and helping IT finally innovate at the pace that their businesses expect. To boost Power Platform to scale to millions of 'citizen developers', we are investing in Power Portals - an early emergent-stage product within Power Platform suite currently used by customers to enable collaboration with users both internal and external to their organizations. We are early in our journey to innovate on Portals product, integrate with other Power products (PBI, PVA, etc.) and shape it into a thriving standalone customer-facing business to drive incremental revenue and value for Power Platform.
