About Us

We are a startup developing AI-powered solutions, business applications, integrations, and automations across different products and internal initiatives.

Microsoft technologies are an important part of our work. We want to turn business requirements into useful AI assistants, reliable workflows, and connected systems that deliver measurable results.

Our delivery model combines internal ownership with outsourced development. We are looking for someone who enjoys hands‑on implementation, can coordinate external specialists, and wants to help build and lead a growing team.

The Role

We are seeking an experienced Microsoft AI Engineer with strong practical experience in Microsoft Copilot, Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, and Power Automate.

You will take responsibility for projects from requirements discovery and solution design through implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing improvement. Your work will span different business processes and products.

Alongside technical delivery, your responsibilities may include project management, team leadership, mentoring, and coordination of outsourced contributors. You should be comfortable discussing business priorities, organizing delivery, reviewing technical work, and helping colleagues improve.

Ownership of Our Microsoft Environment

You will independently manage and develop our company's Microsoft environment across Microsoft 365, Azure, and Power Platform. This includes taking ownership of configuration, access management, operational reliability, governance, documentation, and cost control.

We need someone who can identify issues, propose practical improvements, coordinate implementation, and verify that our systems continue to work reliably. You should be comfortable combining hands‑on technical work with project management, team leadership, mentoring, and coordination of outsourced specialists.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop Power Automate workflows with reliable validation, exception handling, monitoring, and recovery.
• Integrate Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, Dataverse, Microsoft Graph, external APIs, and other business systems.
• Implement custom connectors or supporting code where the project requires them.
• Evaluate AI output quality, grounding, failure behavior, latency, and operating costs.
• Establish appropriate human review and approval steps for consequential automated actions.
• Independently administer our Microsoft 365, Azure, and Power Platform environments, including users, groups, roles, application registrations, permissions, and service connections.
• Configure and manage GitHub-connected Power Platform solutions, including repositories, authentication, source control, branching, reviews, and deployment workflows.
• Manage the solution lifecycle across development, testing, and production, including solution dependencies, environment variables, connection references, release verification, and recovery procedures.
• Maintain secure application identities, credentials, and access configurations with clear ownership and appropriate permissions.
• Monitor platform health, investigate failures, maintain operational documentation, and control licensing and cloud expenditure.
• Translate business requirements into clear tasks, delivery milestones, and verifiable acceptance criteria.
• Manage project scope, priorities, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder communication.
• Coordinate outsourced developers, review their deliverables, and maintain clear ownership.
• Mentor colleagues through practical demonstrations, reviews, and knowledge transfer.
• Keep solutions maintainable and proportionate to the problem and startup budget.

Required Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience delivering production solutions using Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, and Power Automate.

• Experience integrating SharePoint, Teams, Dataverse, Microsoft Graph, or comparable business platforms.
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Entra ID, application permissions, authentication, and secure credential handling.

• Proven experience leading developers, mentoring colleagues, or coordinating distributed contributors.
• The ability to take ownership of technical problems, communicate their business impact, and carry improvements through to a verified result.
• Ability to work independently, explain technical decisions clearly, and prioritize within a limited startup budget.

Especially Valuable Experience

• Delivering Microsoft AI or automation projects in a startup or consulting environment.
• Building retrieval workflows with documented knowledge sources and permission-aware access.
• Working with Power Apps, Azure services, SQL databases, or Azure DevOps.
• Experience with Azure API Management and its AI gateway capabilities, including authentication, model routing, usage limits, monitoring, and cost control.
• Experience with related components such as Azure Key Vault, Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Azure AI Search.
• Experience building and maintaining Power BI reports and dashboards, including Power Query, data modelling, DAX, scheduled refresh, workspace permissions, and row-level security.
• Experience connecting reporting and analytics to operational workflows and business decisions.
