Through a combination of strategy, expertise and creativity, we help clients accelerate operational, digital and cultural transformation, enabling the change they need to own their future. \nJoin our team as the expert you are now and create your future.\nThis is a foundational, build-team senior development role with a mandate to anchor technical delivery leadership for our Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain practice in India. This is not a role designed to inherit a development team - it is being created to help establish one. From the X++ style standards and code review discipline to the integration patterns, the Copilot Studio plugin library, and the AI build playbook, this role will help define the practice's technical craft from the ground up. You will own the build standard.Success in this role will require advanced X++ fluency, real integration architecture credibility, and hands-on experience shipping AI-augmented components - Copilot Studio plugins, Azure OpenAI integrations, or comparable. The senior consultant in this position must be equally comfortable leading a code review for a Technical Consultant and architecting a Copilot Studio plugin from scratch - bringing both engineering craft and AI build credibility to every workstream they lead. The role calls for a developer who takes pride in code other people enjoy inheriting and treats AI engineering as a first-class discipline alongside core development skill.\nThe ideal candidate brings a minimum of 7 years in enterprise development with at least 4 on Microsoft Dynamics AX or D365 F&O X++, two or more years operating at Technical Consultant level, and at least three full lifecycle implementations including one as development lead. An active GitHub portfolio and at least one shipped engagement involving Copilot Studio, Azure OpenAI, or comparable AI integration is weighted heavily during selection. This individual is on a deliberate development track toward Technical Architect, with practice sponsorship for certifications, AI build time, and growing external visibility. Ultimately, this role calls for a senior consultant who is equal parts X++ craftsman, integration architect, AI builder, and code-review coach, with the appetite to grow into the architect chair through evidenced ship-it discipline.\nRequirements:\nLead the development workstream on D365 F&SCM engagements - owning X++ extensions, custom services, data entities, and complex integrations end-to-end.\n\nDesign and build Copilot Studio plugins, Azure OpenAI components, and AI-powered F&O extensions that move client outcomes - not science-project work.\n\nOwn integration design and build across Dual-write, virtual entities, OData, custom services, Azure Service Bus, Event Grid, Azure Functions, and Logic Apps.\n\nRun code reviews as a teaching tool - including AI-generated code review discipline that catches the silent technical debt GitHub Copilot can introduce.\n\nPartner with the Functional team to translate functional design into technical design - and push back where the functional design has missed a technical implication.\n\nDrive Azure DevOps hygiene - branching strategy, automated builds, release pipelines, LCS asset management, and test automation.\n\nMentor Technical Consultants through paired build, code reviews, and a structured development plan toward Sr. Technical Consultant.\n\nBuild and contribute to the practice's technical IP library - accelerators, extension templates, integration patterns, and AI build references.\n\nLead technical due diligence on pursuit-stage discovery - integration discovery, infrastructure sizing, and AI build effort estimation.\n\nOwn performance, security, and code-quality remediation across the build phase - not as a final-week scramble.\n\nLead cutover technical activities - data migration runs, integration cutover, and post-cutover stabilization.\n\nRepresent the practice externally - Microsoft community contributions, internal brown-bags, and (for top performers) external speaking opportunities\n\nPreference:\n9+ years experience in enterprise development with 4+ years in D365 F&O (X++).\n\nMinimum 2 years as Technical Consultant on D365 F&O.\n\nDelivered 3+ full lifecycle implementations, including one as Lead Developer/workstream owner.\n\nExposure to AI integrations (Copilot Studio/Azure OpenAI) strongly preferred.\n\nBachelor’s degree in Computer Science/Engineering or related field; GitHub portfolio is a plus.\n\nMandatory certifications: MB-500, MB-300; AZ-204 (preferred/in progress); AI-102 within 6 months.\n\nStrong expertise in X++ development (extensions, CoC, performance tuning).\n\nExperience in integration architecture (OData, APIs, Service Bus, Azure Functions, Logic Apps).\n\nProficiency in Azure services (App Service, Functions, Key Vault, Entra ID).\n\nHands-on with DevOps (Azure DevOps, CI/CD, LCS, automated builds/testing).\n\nStrong knowledge of data integration & entity design for large-scale systems.\n\nExperience with Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, connectors).\n\nExposure to Microsoft Fabric, Synapse, and data lakehouse patterns.\n\nStrong focus on security, compliance, and testing discipline.\n\nCapability to build and manage AI solutions (Copilot plugins, Azure OpenAI, RAG, AI Builder).\n\nContribution to AI/engineering IP, reusable components, and code reviews with AI governance.\n\nStrong soft skills: code quality mindset, coaching ability, collaboration across geographies, and architectural understanding.\n\nPosition Level\nManagerCountry\nIndia","description_format":"text","description_chars":5645,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":9,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"India","iso":"IN","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Data & Analytics","Government","Professional Services","Management Consulting"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-13T02:21:44Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":15,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.518,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":35,"expected_fill_days":17,"reasons":["conf:2","win:tail","crowd:junior,brand"],"computed_at":"2026-10-13T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/huron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/huron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-13T15:42:20Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":23914,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-14T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3031},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3031"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fhuron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fhuron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fhuron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/huron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fhuron-microsoft-d365-associate-manager"}]}
