  • Dataverse data models and security
• Integrate Copilot agents with Microsoft 365 and enterprise systems (e.g., Teams, SharePoint, APIs, internal platforms) using connectors, flows, and services.
• Leverage Microsoft Azure AI and Foundry services to enhance agent capabilities and support agentic workflows.
• Apply PowerShell and scripting where appropriate for automation, configuration, and operational tasks.
• Ensure solutions comply with enterprise governance, security, and compliance standards, including environment strategy, permissions, and data access controls.
• Collaborate with product owners, business analysts, and IT leadership to translate business requirements into scalable agent solutions.
• Provide technical guidance and mentoring to junior developers or makers as needed.
• Document solutions thoroughly to support long-term maintainability and knowledge transfer.

• Experience integrating systems using APIs, connectors, and workflows.
• Solid understanding of agentic AI concepts, conversational design, and enterprise application lifecycle management.
• Ability to work independently, take ownership of solutions, and operate effectively in a consulting or matrixed team environment.
• Experience with Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, or related Azure AI services.

Preferred / Nice-to-Have Qualifications
