MS Teams App Publishing Expert Needed – Package, Deploy & Publish HR App to Teams Store.

Job ID: 40241038

Budget: $2 – $8 USD

We’re looking for an experienced Microsoft Teams app publishing specialist to take our existing Teams app and successfully publish it to the Microsoft Teams Store.

The app is already developed and working. It includes:

Tabs

Bot

Messaging extensions

Notifications

Your role will focus on the end‑to‑end publishing process, not building the app from scratch.

Key responsibilities:

Review our existing Teams app (tabs, bot, messaging extensions, notifications) and current configuration

Package the app correctly (manifest, icons, app package) for submission

Set up and configure any required Azure resources and permissions for production

Ensure compliance with Microsoft’s validation and security guidelines for Teams apps

Guide us through or help complete Publisher Verification / Attestation steps as needed

Submit the app to the Microsoft Teams Store and handle any feedback from the validation team until approval

Provide clear documentation and a brief handover so we can manage future updates

Requirements:

Proven experience publishing apps to the Microsoft Teams Store (not just internal/tenant apps)

Solid understanding of Microsoft 365, Azure AD, and Teams app registration

Familiarity with Microsoft’s Store validation, security, and compliance requirements

Ability to troubleshoot and respond quickly to validation feedback

Good communication skills and ability to work independently

Nice to have:

Experience publishing apps to other Microsoft marketplaces (AppSource, Azure Marketplace)

Prior work with HR or SaaS products is a plus

What to include in your proposal:

A brief summary of your Teams app publishing experience

1–3 examples of Teams apps you’ve helped publish to the Store (links or descriptions)

A rough outline of the steps you would follow to take our existing app to a successful Teams Store listing

Your hourly rate (within 2–8 USD/hour) and estimated hours for this project

This is a focused, short‑term project. If this goes well, there is potential for ongoing collaboration on future Microsoft ecosystem projects.

Please do not apply if your expertise is mainly in blockchain or crypto – this project is not related to that domain.
