Role Description

CRS is seeking a Senior Microsoft Platforms Engineer to support execution of a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) delivering Enterprise Knowledge Management (EKM) services to a U.S. Combatant Command headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, Florida. The BPA supports the Command Headquarters, its Component Commands, and its Theater Special Operations Commands (TSOCs), spanning multiple CONUS and OCONUS locations across a broad Area of Responsibility (AOR) and operating across unclassified and classified networks.

The Senior Microsoft Platforms Engineer shall engineer, configure, and sustain the enterprise KM technical ecosystem, using current and emerging technologies including:

• Enterprise collaboration platforms
• MS SharePoint (on-premises 2016, 2019, and Subscription Edition, and SharePoint Online)
• M365 services
• MS Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, and Copilot)

The individual shall set the platform patterns, governance guardrails, and administrative practices the rest of the technical team builds within, shall lead escalated troubleshooting and upgrade planning, and shall mentor engineers assigned to the program.

Key Responsibilities

• Engineer, configure, and sustain the enterprise KM technical ecosystem across MS SharePoint, M365 services, and the MS Power Platform.
• Engineer authoritative, process-aligned knowledge systems by configuring platforms and applications.
• Apply Command content governance in every solution — taxonomy, metadata, naming conventions, version control, and content lifecycle rules.
• Design for discoverability and secure access by improving enterprise search, indexing, and navigation.
• Establish reusable components and low-code patterns on the Power Platform and M365.
• Integrate decision-support features including dashboards, task trackers, timelines, and workflow views.
• Embed DevSecOps and compliance in platform work.
• Define and enforce Power Platform environment strategy, connector approvals, and data loss prevention policies.
• Deliver all platform configurations and custom-developed code with unlimited Government data rights.
• Lead system administration and sustainment — configuration upkeep, health monitoring, permissions oversight.
• Resolve escalated system issues, workflow failures, access problems, and performance anomalies.
• Produce solution runbooks, governance guides, configuration documentation, and administrator and user training.
• Coordinate with the Headquarters, Components, and TSOCs to ensure solutions conform to KM policy.

Qualifications

• Shall be a U.S. citizen and shall possess an active Top Secret (TS) clearance with eligibility to SCI based on a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI).
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Engineering, or a related discipline; additional directly relevant experience may substitute for the degree.
• A minimum of eight (8) years engineering and administering Microsoft collaboration platforms.
• Demonstrated expertise across the M365 suite and the Power Platform.
• Experience implementing role-based or attribute-based access control and zero-trust access principles.
• DoD 8570/8140 IAT Level II baseline certification (e.g., Security+ CE), or the ability to obtain it prior to receiving privileged access.

Desired Qualifications

• Experience supporting a Combatant Command, SOF, or Intelligence Community organization.
• Microsoft role-based certifications (e.g., MS-102 Microsoft 365 Administrator Expert, PL-600 Power Platform Solution Architect).
• Experience with Microsoft Purview, Content Manager, or a comparable ERMS.
• Experience applying DISA Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) and remediating vulnerabilities.
• Experience with MS SQL Server, MS Dynamics 365, and the MS Business Language Stack.
• Experience deploying and governing Copilot in a controlled enterprise environment.
• Experience migrating content between SharePoint versions or from legacy repositories at enterprise scale.
• Agile or Scrum experience delivering platform work in sprints.

Attributes of a Successful Candidate

• Treats governance and security as design constraints to engineer around.
• Builds patterns other engineers can reuse instead of bespoke solutions.
• Steady under escalation — methodical when an enterprise platform is degraded.
• Generous mentor who raises the technical floor of the whole team.
• Comfortable working across unclassified and classified networks.
