Build your career as a Dynamics 365 Developer
Projects where you choose the product you hold: Business Central with AL, CRM with Power Platform or the migration of a legacy NAV. Shakers connects you with teams that arrive with a Dynamics ecosystem to sustain, not with a list of technologies.
Going independent with Dynamics usually starts at a partner portal, at a consultancy that rents you by the day or at the English marketplace that cannot tell AL from X++. None of them explains how project collaboration works in Spanish, with a scope and an identifiable company.
This is not a certification route: it is what gets touched on a real brief and where your territory ends.
- Higher-paying projects
- More continuity between projects
- Greater recognition for your experience

Amelia
AI Agent Developer
“I have been building AI agents for years. Thanks to Shakers I stopped chasing clients and started genuinely choosing which projects I wanted to work on. I work with some of the best companies in Europe, at my own rate, and I focus on what I am good at and what I love: building.”

Luz
Backend Developer & Data Engineer
“Shakers adds a lot of value because it connects you with sharper projects, already filtered and better defined. It saves you a big part of the upfront work of understanding the client, quoting and weighing up whether it is worth it, and that means that as a contractor you can go far more directly to the opportunities that genuinely fit you.”

Rubén
Software Developer
“Life as a contractor has a lot going on and it is not always easy. We like to focus on what we are good at, but you also have to manage clients, invoicing and go looking for work. For me, Shakers has been key because it does that prospecting for me, it gives the client confidence from the very first moment, and it lets us be part of a community with real enthusiasm.”

Alejandro
AI Developer
“Shakers was key to getting my company off the ground: it gave me the flexibility to keep contracting while I built my next chapter. Without Shakers, I would have had to raise funding or push the project back.”

Toño
Product Designer
“With Shakers I have landed recurring projects that give me peace of mind and room to grow professionally. It is not just about reaching quality clients: it is feeling that you have a network behind you, one that connects you with real opportunities and helps you move forward as a freelancer.”
Join ShakersThe decisions a Dynamics Developer makes every week
A Dynamics 365 Developer customises and integrates the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem: the CRM (Customer Engagement) with Power Platform and Dataverse, and the ERP in its two products, Business Central with the AL language and Finance & Operations with X++. Their work reaches integrations and evolutionary maintenance.
Their boundary: the functional consultant configures and implements without programming; this role writes code in AL or X++. Whoever only configures a module without touching code is not in their territory.
You decide what gets customised in AL versus what configuration already brings, how the ERP crosses with the CRM and where the legacy NAV migration enters. You also decide what the project rejects: an extension untested on staging does not ship. The product belongs to the ecosystem; the code that holds it is yours.

What a Dynamics Developer delivers on a Shakers project
The brief arrives with the ecosystem
The NAV nobody maintains, the integration that breaks at month close or the CRM that does not talk to the ERP: an ecosystem problem, not a list of technologies.
Ecosystems that hold themselves up
Documented extension, tested integration and migration in phases: what you deliver, the business maintains when the milestone closes.
The product is the craft
AL for Business Central, X++ for F&O, Power Platform and Dataverse on the CRM face, with Azure on the integrations and Git on the repository.
Ecosystems counted, not courses
Having taken projects to production and knowing how to tell them: which product, what you migrated and what survived the close. MB-820 counts as a criterion.
What gets programmed and what does not
Choosing between configuration, standard extension or custom development by maintenance cost, not convenience. Sometimes configuration wins, and defending it.
Where your brief ends
You customise and integrate; you do not do functional consulting nor user training. If the engagement asks to configure without code, you say so at kickoff.
Frequently asked questions
Any other questions? Write to us and we will reply.
What does a Dynamics 365 Developer do on a real project?
Extensions in AL or X++, ERP-CRM integrations tested on staging and legacy NAV migrations in phases. One week you touch Business Central, another Power Platform: the ecosystem is yours.
Can you make a living from Dynamics 365 development in Spain?
Yes, and it gets measured by product: 199 active job ads mention Dynamics 365, 76 Business Central and 19 Navision (n=31,557). Selling the craft by project, in Spanish, without depending on the partner.
Functional consultant or developer: where do I position myself?
The consultant configures and the dev programs in AL or X++; the migration project pays both. If you know code, the developer row separates you from the training route and brings you closer to the engagement.
Should I specialise in Business Central or in F&O?
Enter through the product you already master and the market will ask for the second: Business Central rules the SME, F&O the large operation. Both share C#/.NET, Azure and ERP logic.
Working by the hour or by project as a Dynamics Developer?
It is the question of every ecosystem thread. The project route closes scope before kickoff: which product, which deliverables and which maintenance. You charge per defined engagement, not for presence.
How do you join Shakers as a Dynamics 365 Developer?
You create your profile, pass the certification process and enter the collective: only 4 percent make it. Then you choose which ecosystems you collaborate on.
The daily shape of the craft
The extension that ships today, the integration tested on staging and the legacy ERP migration that lands in phases. Less configuring modules, more code the business maintains.
The tools are the craft
199 active tech job ads in Spain mention Dynamics 365, 76 Business Central, 32 Dynamics CRM, 25 Dynamics NAV and 19 Navision (Shakers market analysis, n=31,557, September 2026). The market titles by product: Business Central Developer is a real post, not a label.
How people get here
Three doors: the .NET developer landing on AL or X++, the functional consultant crossing into code and the legacy NAV programmer retraining to Business Central. The MB-820 certification marks the dev level.
What this role is not
You do not configure a module without touching code and you do not do the functional consulting of implementation. Your product is the ecosystem that runs: its code and its continuity.
Who you share an ecosystem project with
A Dynamics ecosystem is not held up by one person alone: whoever runs the other CRM, the ITSM platform, the neighbouring ERP and the server.
Salesforce Developer
The other major CRM of the market: when the project is Salesforce and not Dynamics, the territory is their row. The platform decision comes before the profile.
ServiceNow Developer
When the platform the project asks for is ITSM and not ERP: ServiceNow is their ecosystem and their language, with the same platform logic as yours.
ABAP Developer
The neighbouring ERP: if the system that rules is SAP and not Dynamics, whoever programs ABAP is the row. Both share clients and migration calendars.
Full Stack Developer
The cross-sectional job ad titles platform fullstack: when the project brings web, integration and data from the same trade, they cover both layers of the system.
Backend Developer
When integration weighs more than the product: APIs, queues and services with no Dynamics in between, server logic goes to their repository.
Boundaries between these roles are agreed per project: the job title doesn't set them.
