Hi, I’m Manoj Annavajjala.
I’m a Power Platform Architect, Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), speaker, and technology leader passionate about helping organizations design secure, scalable, and governed business solutions using Microsoft Power Platform and AI.
For more than 15 years, I’ve worked across enterprise technology, cloud platforms, application modernization, automation, governance, and digital transformation initiatives. My career has evolved from application management and release engineering to leading enterprise Power Platform architecture and AI adoption strategies.
Today, I focus on helping organizations unlock the full potential of:
- Power Apps
- Power Automate
- Copilot Studio
- Power Pages
- Dataverse
- SharePoint Online
- Microsoft 365
- Azure AI
- Enterprise Governance & Security
My Journey
My technology journey began in software engineering and enterprise application management, where I gained hands-on experience in deployments, infrastructure, operations, and large-scale enterprise systems.
Over the years, I have led:
- Enterprise Power Platform implementations
- Governance and Center of Excellence initiatives
- SharePoint Online migrations
- Application modernization programs
- CI/CD and ALM strategies
- AI-powered business solutions using Copilot Studio and Azure AI
One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been helping organizations move from disconnected manual processes to scalable, governed, and intelligent business solutions.
