Position Summary

We are seeking a Conversational AI Lead to design and implement intelligent voice and digital self-service experiences using Microsoft Copilot Studio, Azure AI Foundry, and Dynamics 365 Contact Center.

The role will lead the design of customer-facing conversational experiences that enable customers to authenticate, obtain information, complete transactions, resolve routine inquiries, and seamlessly transfer to live contact-center agents when necessary.

The ideal candidate combines conversational design skills with practical experience deploying production AI solutions in regulated, transaction-intensive environments. Experience with tolling, transportation, government, utilities, financial services, or high-volume consumer contact centers is strongly preferred.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop conversational experiences supporting use cases such as:
• Account and balance inquiries
• Payment inquiries
• Toll and transaction questions
• Violations and notices
• Account maintenance
• Frequently asked questions
• Knowledge-based customer service
• Design effective dialog flows, topics, intents, entities, prompts, actions, fallback logic, and escalation paths.
• Integrate conversational agents with Dynamics 365, Dataverse, APIs, back-office platforms, payment services, and knowledge sources.
• Design transfer-with-context capabilities so authentication status, conversation history, customer intent, and relevant data are available to the live agent.
• Develop generative AI experiences using Azure AI Foundry and supported Microsoft models.
• Design grounding and retrieval approaches using approved enterprise knowledge sources.
• Establish prompt-engineering patterns, AI instructions, guardrails, and evaluation criteria.
• Design solutions that minimize hallucinations and ensure transactional actions remain controlled and auditable.
• Develop English and Spanish-language conversational experiences, including testing for intent accuracy, terminology, and customer usability.
• Work with business and contact-center teams to identify automation opportunities and determine where AI should versus should not be used.
• Define and measure conversational AI KPIs, including:
• Self-service containment
• Automation completion
• Transfer rate
• Abandonment
• Intent recognition
• Analyze conversational telemetry and continuously optimize dialogs, prompts, knowledge content, and routing.
• Collaborate with security, architecture, operations, legal, accessibility, and compliance teams.
• Support testing, UAT, production deployment, hypercare, and ongoing optimization.

Required Qualifications

• 3-5+ years of conversational AI, virtual-agent, chatbot, or IVR solution experience.
• Demonstrated experience delivering production conversational AI applications.
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Copilot Studio.
• Experience designing integrations between conversational platforms and enterprise applications/APIs.
• Understanding of generative AI, prompt design, grounding, retrieval-augmented generation, and AI evaluation.
• Strong knowledge of conversational UX principles, including error handling, fallback, escalation, confirmation, and context management.
• Experience designing measurable self-service solutions rather than demonstration-only AI prototypes.
• Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder-management skills.

Preferred Experience

• Dynamics 365 Contact Center and Customer Service.
• Microsoft Power Platform and Dataverse.
• Nuance or other enterprise IVR/conversational AI platforms.
• Tolling, transportation, government, utilities, or high-volume customer-service operations.
