We’re a fast growing, publicly traded company (NYSE: ZWS), with an enduring reputation for integrity, giving back, and providing an engaging, inclusive environment where careers flourish and grow. Named by Newsweek as One of America’s Most Responsible Companies and an Energage USA Top Workplace, at Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation, we never forget that our people are at the center of what makes us successful. They are the driving force behind our superior quality, product ingenuity, and exceptional customer experience. Our commitment to our people and their professional development is a recipe for success that has fueled our growth for over 100 years, as one of today’s leading international suppliers of plumbing and water delivery solutions. Headquartered in Milwaukee, WI, Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation employs over 2800 employees worldwide, working from 24 locations across the U.S., China, Canada, Dubai, and Mexico, with sales offices available around the globe. We hope you’ll visit our website and learn more about Zurn Elkay at zurnelkay.com. Zurn Elkay is seeking a Senior Power Platform & AI Solution Architect to serve as our Microsoft AI agent expert, with deep, hands-on capability across Power Platform, Copilot Studio, and Microsoft Foundry (formerly Azure AI Foundry). This is not a traditional Power Platform architect role, and it is not a governance-only function: you'll work directly with business teams, observe real-world processes, and build practical agent solutions in real time, while also setting the architecture patterns, standards, and technical direction that our internal team and India Center of Excellence (CoE) deliver against. Business interaction and delivery carry the same weight in this role as standards and technical direction.

Key Focus Areas Include

Establishing architecture standards, design patterns, and platform guardrails across Power Platform and AI solutions
Designing and building AI agents, business applications, and automation solutions directly with business stakeholders
Serving as technical design authority for the India Center of Excellence
Owning Dataverse solution architecture supporting Dynamics CRM and D365 F&O

This Role Does Not

Own Power Platform administration, licensing, or citizen‑developer support
Own Power BI reporting or Snowflake-based analytics; that stays with the BI team
Own the broader Microsoft Foundry platform architecture, though it actively contributes to and builds on those capabilities
Function solely as oversight or governance; hands‑on solution design and delivery are core to the role
This is primarily a U.S. business‑facing role; India CoE technical direction is part of the scope but not the main focus

Responsibilities

Business Engagement & Solution Delivery

Partner directly with business stakeholders, observing real‑world processes and rapidly building, piloting, and iterating agent solutions in real time
Facilitate discovery sessions and solution workshops that translate business needs into scalable technical solutions

Architecture & Technical Leadership

Set architectural patterns, standards, and technical direction for Power Platform and Copilot Studio solutions across the organization
Design and build reference implementations, reusable components, and solution frameworks for enterprise adoption
Establish and enforce ALM practices for solution deployment across dev/test/prod environments

Agentic AI & Integration Architecture

Design grounding and integration architecture for AI‑driven agents, including RAG, MCP (Model Context Protocol), A2A (Agent2Agent protocol), knowledge sources, enterprise search, custom connectors, and REST/API integrations

Delivery Leadership

Provide technical direction to the India Center of Excellence: design and code review, work intake, quality standards, and overlap‑hours collaboration
Document architecture decisions and provide technical mentorship across the internal team and India CoE

Dataverse & Platform Architecture

Own Dataverse solution architecture supporting Dynamics CRM and D365 F&O, including data modeling, security roles, and environment strategy

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent experience
8+ years of overall IT/software experience, including 5+ years architecting solutions on Microsoft Power Platform
2-3+ years of GenAI/agent development experience, with recent hands‑on exposure to Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, RAG, MCP, and A2A patterns
Demonstrated architecture ownership: has set patterns, standards, and technical direction for a platform, not only delivered against another party’s design
Deep, hands‑on coding ability: Power Fx, custom connectors, plug‑ins, and scripting (PowerShell, Python, or similar)
Experience designing grounding and integration architecture: knowledge sources, enterprise search, custom connectors, and REST/API integration
Experience with Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 ecosystem integration
Experience directing distributed or offshore delivery teams, including design review, work intake, and quality standards
Strong business acumen and communication skills; comfortable working directly with business stakeholders to solve problems in real tien‑driven architectures
Exposure to machine learning concepts and solutions
Exposure to lakehouse or big data orchestration platforms
Microsoft Certified: AI Agent Builder Associate (Exam AB‑620) or Microsoft Certified: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect
Microsoft Certified: Azure AI Apps and Agents Developer Associate (AI‑103)
Microsoft Power Platform certifications (PL‑100, PL‑200, PL‑400, PL‑600)
Exposure to enterprise AI governance and agent inventory/compliance tooling

What Sets This Role Apart

This role sits at the intersection of business transformation and agentic AI delivery: you'll work directly with business teams to solve real problems in real time, while also shaping the architecture and standards that guide enterprise‑wide AI adoption. It's suited to someone who wants to stay hands‑on and technical rather than move into a purely administrative or oversight track.
