Full Job Description
** This is an opportunity to join our team of top-notch modern work engineers working closely together on interesting projects for our clients. This position is fully remote (indefinitely). **

We are hiring a senior Modern Work Engineer focused on Microsoft Copilot and SharePoint solutions. This role combines hands-on solution development with client-facing delivery, scoping, and training.

You will work across multiple client engagements, moving between solution architecture, solution design and delivery, SharePoint configuration, pre-sales support, user training, and post-implementation recommendations. This is a project-based role where communication, ownership, and adaptability are just as important as technical depth - both in shaping what gets built and in helping clients understand and adopt the solutions you build.
