Position Overview

The Province requires 2 Full Stack Developers / Power Pages Migration Specialists to lead the modernization of our legacy portal infrastructure. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience with Adxstudio Portals and deep expertise in transitioning these systems to modern Microsoft Power Pages, leveraging Dataverse and the Enhanced Data Model.

Testing, Deployment & Knowledge Sharing
