• Participate in Agile sprints, code reviews, documentation, and continuous improvement.

• Demonstrated experience using Microsoft Copilot Studio or integrating Copilot into enterprise workflows.

• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills with the ability to quickly learn new technologies.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work cross-functionally.

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Experience integrating LLMs, OpenAI / Azure OpenAI, LangChain, or vector databases into automation workflows.
• Background in RPA, business process automation, or NIST/RMF compliance tooling.
• Experience in Azure cloud (Functions, Logic Apps, Cognitive Search, Storage, APIM).
• Prior work within federal agencies or secure enterprise environments.
• Microsoft certifications: PL-100, PL-200, PL-400, AI-102, or related credentials.

(Required or Preferred) Education:

• Bachelor’s degree in business or an IT related field
