Required Qualifications- Proven experience building agentic or multi-agent AI systems that run in production and serve real users — working systems, not demonstrations.
- Strong command of state management, concurrency, idempotency and authorisation for systems that act on a system of record on behalf of many users.
- Hands-on integration experience with enterprise APIs and data platforms, including designing safe read and write paths and handling failure gracefully.
- Working knowledge of modern AI application patterns — retrieval-augmented generation, prompt and context design, agent orchestration, tool use and protocols such as MCP.
- Strong, hands‑on command of a major cloud platform, ideally Azure — able to independently provision, configure, deploy, secure and operate cloud resources, owning an application end to end rather than only consuming pre‑built services.
- Demonstrated ability to prototype rapidly, using AI‑assisted development and fast iteration to turn a loosely defined idea into something usable in days.
- The judgement and autonomy of a senior individual contributor — able to make sound architecture and feasibility calls alone, under time pressure, and explain them to non‑technical stakeholders.
- Direct experience with Microsoft Fabric — Lakehouse, Warehouse, Data Factory, Real‑Time Intelligence, Power BI and One Lake — or a comparable enterprise data platform.
- Experience with Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Platform, Azure AI Foundry, or agent‑builder platforms such as Lyzr or Moveworks.
- Integration experience with major Corporate Function systems of record — for example Oracle HCM, SAP, Workday, Salesforce, Dynamics 365 or Service Now.
- Familiarity with enterprise governance concerns: identity and access management, data classification and residency, responsible AI policy, and evaluation of model output.
- A background that blends software engineering with consulting, business transformation or a Corporate Function discipline.
- Experience delivering in short, iterative cycles directly with non‑technical business stakeholders.
- Hands‑on experience with Agentic AI is a Must‑Have.
- Most relevant candidates hands‑on with MS technologies, Azure and Microsoft’s Agentic AI suite
- Good communication skills is a must‑have since this individual will be directly working with business teams
- A highly competitive compensation and benefits package.
- A multinational organization with 58 offices in 21 countries and the possibility to work abroad.
- 10 days of paid annual leave (plus sick leave and national holidays).
