ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
SmithGroup is seeking a Dynamics 365 Administrator to serve as a hands-on subject matter expert across our Microsoft Dynamics 365 ecosystem — spanning Customer Engagement (CE), Project Operations (PO), and Finance and Operations (F&O). This is a hybrid role combining administrative duties, end-user support, and development effort.

- Own day-to-day production operations for the Dynamics 365 ecosystem, including onboarding and offboarding users; administering roles and security access; monitoring and troubleshooting scheduled jobs; maintaining configurations; and performing data-quality and cleanup activities.
- Respond to end-user incidents and requests through the ticketing system, using a methodical approach to assess and troubleshoot production issues related to performance, access, and data accuracy.
- Drive system adoption and continuous improvement by evaluating, piloting and rolling out new features in partnership with Microsoft experts and functional leads.
- Act as the SmithGroup project manager for two OneVersion upgrades each year.
- Design, build, maintain, and execute Dynamics functional and regression automated test plans for upgrades and changes using test automation software tools.
- Configure and maintain D365 Dataverse environments and deployment pipelines. Manage custom solutions and solution layering across environments.
- Extend platform capabilities through the creation of new entities, forms, plugins, apps, dataflows, workflows, and reports.
- Represent Dynamics 365 across all phases of the Solution Delivery Life Cycle — from requirements gathering through development, testing, and implementation — including technical guidance for related systems on Dynamics integrations.
- Contribute to the organization's Dynamics roadmap, including identifying opportunities to integrate AI-driven workflows.
- Drive the ongoing evolution of the Dynamics platform connecting client, project and financial data to allow the organization to run more efficiently, scale effectively, win more business and make decisions based on real-time information.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Microsoft Dynamics Consultant
Target mid-market ERP implementers, not just large enterprises
Boutique Microsoft partner firms and regional systems integrators sponsor Dynamics consultants regularly and often move faster than large corporations. They sponsor fewer roles total but fill them quickly, so applying early matters more than at big employers.
Make sure your degree field is documented clearly
USCIS expects a direct connection between your bachelor's field and the Dynamics role. Business information systems, computer science, and accounting degrees are strong fits. A general business degree can work if your coursework or transcript shows relevant technical or analytical emphasis.
Microsoft certifications strengthen your H-1B petition
Certifications like MB-300, MB-310, or PL-900 signal role-specific expertise to both employers and USCIS officers. They don't replace your degree requirement, but they reinforce the specialty occupation argument and make your profile more competitive during the petition review.
Know whether your role is functional or technical before applying
Functional consultants focus on business process design, while technical consultants handle customization and integration. Sponsors and immigration attorneys structure H-1B petitions differently for each. Clarifying your specialization upfront helps employers assess fit and builds a cleaner sponsorship case.
Ask employers specifically about H-1B cap-exempt pathways
Some Dynamics consulting engagements are placed at universities or nonprofit research institutions, which can qualify for cap-exempt H-1B filings. If a role involves work at an eligible site, you may be able to bypass the lottery entirely. Worth asking directly during interviews.
Start the visa conversation before the offer stage
Raising sponsorship late in the process creates friction. Mention your visa situation in initial conversations so employers can loop in their immigration counsel early. Sponsors who have done this before appreciate the transparency and typically have a faster internal approval process.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Microsoft Dynamics Consultant roles qualify as specialty occupations for H-1B purposes?
Yes. USCIS consistently recognizes Dynamics consulting as a specialty occupation because the role requires theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge in ERP systems, business process design, or software integration. Petitions are most defensible when the employer's job description specifies a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as computer science, management information systems, or accounting, rather than accepting any degree.
Which visa types do employers commonly sponsor for this role?
H-1B visa is the most common sponsorship type for Microsoft Dynamics Consultants. Australian citizens can also qualify for the E-3 visa, which has no lottery and is generally faster to obtain. Canadian and Mexican nationals may qualify under TN visa status if the role maps to an eligible USMCA profession. L-1B is another option for consultants already employed by a multinational firm overseas and transferring to a U.S. office.
Does my degree need to be in a technical field, or will a general business degree work?
A general business degree can support an H-1B petition for a Dynamics consultant role, but it requires more documentation. USCIS looks for a logical connection between the degree field and the specific duties of the role. Business information systems, accounting, or finance degrees map cleanly to functional Dynamics roles. For technical roles involving customization or integration work, computer science or software engineering degrees are a stronger fit and face less scrutiny.
How can I find Microsoft Dynamics Consultant jobs that offer visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate filters jobs specifically by sponsorship willingness, so you're not wasting time applying to roles that won't support your visa. The platform surfaces Dynamics consultant openings from employers who have sponsored before, which meaningfully improves your odds of a productive application. Searching by role type rather than just job title also helps you find functional versus technical positions that match your background.
Can I work as an independent contractor on H-1B status as a Dynamics consultant?
Not directly. H-1B status requires an employer-employee relationship, meaning a sponsor must control your work, not just pay you. Consulting arrangements through a staffing or implementation firm are common and acceptable, as long as the petitioning employer maintains control over your day-to-day work. Purely independent contracting arrangements where you set your own terms don't satisfy H-1B requirements and can create compliance problems for both you and the employer.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Microsoft Dynamics Consultant jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
