IT Business Systems Analyst I/II with M365

Not Disclosed

Job Description & Details

The gig is a senior‑level Business Systems Analyst role focused on Microsoft 365 and SharePoint, based out of Sacramento with a hybrid schedule. It’s a C2C contract, so you’ll be billing the client directly, and they expect you to hit the ground running on a long‑term engagement.

What You'll Actually Be Doing

You’ll be the bridge between the business and the tech stack, translating functional needs into SharePoint sites, M365 groups, and automated workflows. Day‑to‑day you’ll troubleshoot desktop app issues, fine‑tune SharePoint permissions, and work with DevOps to push configuration changes. Expect a lot of cross‑team collaboration—product owners, security, and infrastructure will all be in your inbox, and you’ll need to keep the documentation clean and the release cadence smooth.

The Core Tech Stack

The non‑negotiables are deep SharePoint administration (site collections, modern pages, permission models) and a solid grasp of the broader M365 suite—Teams, OneDrive, Power Platform basics. They also want someone comfortable with DevOps tooling (think Azure Pipelines or GitHub Actions) to automate site provisioning. If you’ve built end‑to‑end solutions that span SharePoint Online, Teams, and Power Automate, you’ll be speaking the same language they need.

Interview Expectations

  1. “Walk me through how you would design a multi‑tenant SharePoint architecture for a department that needs isolated document libraries but shared navigation.” – They’re probing your ability to balance security boundaries with user experience and to justify using hub sites or managed metadata.
  2. “Explain a CI/CD pipeline you built for deploying SharePoint Framework (SPFx) web parts. What were the biggest pain points and how did you resolve them?” – This shows whether you can marry DevOps practices with the M365 ecosystem, especially handling package versioning and tenant‑wide roll‑outs.

Application Advice

Tailor your resume to scream “M365, SharePoint, DevOps, cross‑team collaboration.” Put those exact terms in your summary and bullet points, e.g., “Led SharePoint Administration for 200+ users” or “Implemented Azure DevOps pipelines for SPFx deployments.” Highlight the 12+ years of experience and any C2C or contract work, and don’t forget to note the hybrid Sacramento location. A concise project line that quantifies impact (e.g., reduced document retrieval time by 30%) will help you cut through the ATS and catch the hiring manager’s eye.
