Description:
Client: Evolent Health
Location: Arlington, VA (Remote)
While screening candidates, give significant importance to business communication skills. We need a strong communicator who can build relationships and work effectively with clients, partners, and stakeholders on daily basis.
Most importantly, candidates must demonstrate practical project experience where Dynamics CRM backend services, plug-ins, workflows, or business processes were successfully migrated or re-engineered using Azure-native services.
Role Overview:
We are looking for a hands-on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Technical Consultant / Developer with proven experience in decoupling applications from Dynamics CRM and migrating CRM backend capabilities to Azure-native services.
This is not a traditional Dynamics CRM configuration role. The consultant will assess existing Dynamics CRM plug-ins, workflows, integrations, database dependencies, and attachments, and redesign them using appropriate Microsoft Azure services.

Assess Dynamics CRM 9.x on-premises architecture, customizations, plug-ins, workflows, integrations, and data dependencies.

Convert Dynamics CRM plug-ins into Azure Functions, .NET APIs, Container Apps, or event-driven services.
Convert real-time/background workflows and custom workflow activities into Azure Functions, Durable Functions, Logic Apps, or Service Bus-based processing.
Design REST APIs using .NET/C# and Azure API Management.
Implement asynchronous processing using Azure Service Bus queues/topics, including retries, dead-letter handling, and idempotency.
Migrate CRM entity data to Azure SQL and annotation/attachment content to Azure Blob Storage.
Support phased coexistence between Dynamics CRM and Azure during migration.
Implement security using Microsoft Entra ID, Managed Identities, Key Vault, RBAC, and Private Endpoints.
