About The Role
You'll lead the architecture, development, and deployment of next-generation agentic AI systems that transform enterprise operations. These intelligent agents will autonomously orchestrate workflows, analyze real-time data, and embed decision-making across domains like finance, sales, and operations. You'll guide cross-functional teams, mentor engineers, and ensure technical excellence across all stages of delivery. Microsoft AI Foundry will be a key platform for agent development, and Copilot Studio may be used optionally for few use cases.
Responsibilities
- Architect and lead development of scalable, production-grade agentic AI systems.
- Design serverless, event-driven workflows using Azure Functions, Logic Apps, and Power Automate.
- Build and optimize ML models for predictive analytics, anomaly detection, and recommendations using Azure ML, Databricks, and Python.
- Integrate agents with enterprise platforms such as SAP HANA, Salesforce, Snowflake, Kafka, and UiPath.
- Ensure observability and reliability through Azure Monitor, logging, and alerting frameworks.
- Define and enforce architecture patterns, reusable components, and governance standards.
- Lead code reviews, technical design sessions, and agile ceremonies.
- Leverage Microsoft AI Foundry to build and deploy agents that meet enterprise-grade standards.
Leadership Responsibilities
- Mentor and coach junior engineers, fostering a culture of innovation and technical excellence.
- Drive cross-team collaboration and alignment on agentic AI strategy and execution.
- Own delivery timelines, quality benchmarks, and stakeholder communication.
- Champion best practices in DevOps, CI/CD, and model lifecycle management.
- Stay ahead of trends in AI, machine vision, and IoT to guide strategic decisions.
