• Architect human-in-the-loop decision boundaries where appropriate.
• Integrate agents into product workflows
• Integrate AI agents into Microsoft 365, Copilot Studio, Power Platform, AWS services, and internal systems.
• Define and maintain action interfaces between agents and deterministic systems (APIs, workflows, runbooks).
• Ensure reliable orchestration across conversational and workflow layers.
• Own quality, evaluation, and governance
• Define measurable success criteria for agent outputs.
• Build lightweight evaluation frameworks and regression testing for prompts and behavior.
• Monitor output quality, hallucination risk, cost, and drift over time.
• Establish safe usage guidelines and governance boundaries.
• Operate and improve in production
• Monitor agent usage, reliability, and impact.
• Optimize performance, token efficiency, and response structure.
• Iterate on agent behavior based on real usage patterns and feedback.
• Proactively identify new opportunities where AI agents can improve Product workflows.

Requirements

• 6-8+ years of experience building and owning production systems end to end.
• Strong system design skills, including event-driven and serverless architectures, with clear trade-off reasoning.

• Practical experience designing or integrating AI or LLM-powered workflows in production.
• Strong independent ownership and architectural judgment.
• Ability to translate ambiguous business needs into structured, scalable AI-enabled solutions.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills.
• Critical competencies
• Prompt and instruction design as structured system artifacts.
