Venkatesh M.

I design and build Microsoft 365 systems that people actually use: SharePoint intranets, document management, Power Platform apps, and Copilot agents grounded in your own data. I am an Expert-Vetted freelancer, part of Upwork's top 1% of talent, and I personally lead every engagement from first call to handover. WHY CLIENTS HIRE ME 11+ years in SharePoint and Microsoft 365, including nearly a decade as a senior SharePoint developer inside a global automaker. Top Rated Plus on Upwork since 2015, with 95 jobs and $200K+ earned. My work has been delivered for 800+ organizations in 23 countries: Fortune 500 consumer and healthcare brands through Upwork's enterprise program, manufacturers, specialty chemical companies, energy producers, logistics firms, healthcare providers, law firms, local government and nonprofits. Several of those clients have stayed with me for years. WHAT I DELIVER - SharePoint Online intranets: information architecture, custom brand-led design (no templates), SPFx web parts, and migration from classic or on-premises. Built so HR and Communications can run it without filing IT tickets. - Document management: metadata, version control, approval workflows, retention and audit trails for ISO and regulated environments. - Power Apps and Power Automate: canvas and model-driven apps, Dataverse, approval workflows and Power Pages portals that replace the spreadsheet nobody wants to own. - Microsoft Copilot and AI agents: Copilot Studio and Azure AI Foundry agents grounded in SharePoint and Microsoft Graph, respecting the permissions you already have. - Teams and Viva: custom apps, tabs and employee experience inside the tools your people already use. - Tenant migrations, Power BI reporting, and integrations through Microsoft Graph and Azure. SECURITY POSTURE SharePoint Designs is ISO 27001:2022 certified, SOC 2 compliant and GDPR compliant, so your data is handled under audited controls, not just promises. That matters for regulated industries, EU and UK clients, and any team that has to pass a vendor security review. In practice: - I work inside your tenant with named, least-privilege accounts that you control and can revoke at any time. - Your data stays in your environment. Nothing is copied to personal devices or outside systems. - Every admin change is documented and handed over with the code and configuration. - I am happy to sign your NDA or DPA and complete your vendor security questionnaire. - Copilot projects start with a permissions and oversharing review, because an agent will surface anything a user can technically open. HOW I WORK Architecture and a written scope before any code, so you get a plan, not a surprise invoice. Milestones or hourly, whichever suits you. You talk to me directly. I also own the SharePoint Designs agency on Upwork, so a Chennai team of SharePoint, Power Platform and Copilot specialists builds alongside me, and I review every release. Each project ends with documentation and a handover session so your team owns what we built. Tell me what is broken or what you want to build. I will tell you plainly whether I am the right fit and how I would approach it.
