Microsoft D365 Senior Technical Consultant

About Huron

Huron is a global consultancy that collaborates with clients to drive strategic growth, ignite innovation and navigate constant change. 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.

About the Role

This is a foundational, build-team senior development role with a mandate to anchor technical delivery leadership for the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain practice in India. This role is being created to help establish a development team — not designed to inherit one.

You will own the build standard and help define the practice's technical craft from the ground up, including X++ style standards, code review discipline, integration patterns, Copilot Studio plugin library, and AI build playbook.

Position Level: Senior Associate Country: India

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the development workstream on D365 F&SCM engagements — owning X++ extensions, custom services, data entities, and complex integrations end-to-end
• Design and build Copilot Studio plugins, Azure OpenAI components, and AI-powered F&O extensions that move client outcomes
• Own integration design and build across Dual-write, virtual entities, OData, custom services, Azure Service Bus, Event Grid, Azure Functions, and Logic Apps
• Run code reviews as a teaching tool — including AI-generated code review discipline that catches the silent technical debt GitHub Copilot can introduce
• Partner with the Functional team to translate functional design into technical design — and push back where the functional design has missed a technical implication
• Drive Azure DevOps hygiene — branching strategy, automated builds, release pipelines, LCS asset management, and test automation
• Mentor Technical Consultants through paired build, code reviews, and a structured development plan toward Sr. Technical Consultant
• Build and contribute to the practice's technical IP library — accelerators, extension templates, integration patterns, and AI build references
• Lead technical due diligence on pursuit-stage discovery — integration discovery, infrastructure sizing, and AI build effort estimation
• Own performance, security, and code-quality remediation across the build phase — not as a final-week scramble
• Lead cutover technical activities — data migration runs, integration cutover, and post-cutover stabilization
• Represent the practice externally — Microsoft community contributions, internal brown-bags, and (for top performers) external speaking opportunities

Requirements

Experience:

• Minimum 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

• Strong knowledge of data integration & entity design for large-scale systems
• Experience with Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, connectors)
• Exposure to Microsoft Fabric, Synapse, and data lakehouse patterns
• Strong focus on security, compliance, and testing discipline
• Capability to build and manage AI solutions (Copilot plugins, Azure OpenAI, RAG, AI Builder)
• Contribution to AI/engineering IP, reusable components, and code reviews with AI governance

Soft Skills:

• Code quality mindset, coaching ability, collaboration across geographies, and architectural understanding

Education & Certifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science/Engineering or related field; GitHub portfolio is a plus
