Description
Based in our Oxford office, you will join the Modern Workplace Team within Internal Technology. The team is responsible for the design, delivery, continual improvement, and support of the core services that provide Aurora’s staff with the tools and technology needed to perform their best work.
Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you will focus on the Power Platform, Power Apps, Power Automate, Azure Logic Apps, and related automation and integration technologies. Your role will be to design and deliver solutions that improve productivity, streamline business processes, and enhance collaboration across the organisation.
We have an existing suite of Power Platform solutions that require ongoing development and support. In addition, Aurora is adopting Logic Apps as part of its enterprise integration strategy — migrating existing Power Platform integrations and introducing scalable, well-governed automation patterns. You will help shape this transition, ensuring Power Platform remains a valuable tool for citizen developers while establishing strong governance and best practices.
You will work directly with business users and Internal Technology colleagues to understand requirements, design effective solutions, and help drive automation and efficiency throughout the organisation. This is an exciting opportunity to join Aurora at a key stage of growth, as we continue to expand internationally and mature our technology landscape to meet the needs of a dynamic, data-driven business.

- Support citizen developers and promote best practices in solution design. Take ownership of governance defined in conjunction with the Head of Architecture and Engineering and senior engineers
