Company is Promoting Me to Develop Power Platform

(2) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 81

To provide some background I am an engineer for a material science company (I have a Minor is CS).  For the past 2 years, we have been looking for a 3rd party company to upgrade some of our legacy systems for collecting and managing production data.  At the beginning of 2023, while this was going on, I started to teach myself Microsoft Power Platform.  Fastforward to now, I am creating and managing environments, developing model driven & canvas apps, automated flows, dashboards, and so on.  It has been going so well that they have abandoned the 3rd party companies in favor of having me continue to develop this system.

 

They promoting me to do this full time and have asked me to tell them what I want my title to be, but before I just randomly assign myself a title I wanted to ask what title would be appropriate?  I'd also like to ask for any advice or certifications I would need to be successful.

    There are many job titles which may be a good fit such as Power Platform Manager, Power Platform Solution Architect, etc but only you will know what is a good fit.

     

    If you need inspiration, check out job vacancies on LinkedIn for existing job titles.

     

    Also, this Microsoft Power Platform training and certifications deck is great at outlining the Power Platform certifications available and how to select them:
