Job Description

The CoPilot Studio Solution Architect is a senior technical leader responsible for the end‑to‑end architecture, design, and delivery of agent and copilot solutions built on Microsoft CoPilot Studio across Invesco. This role defines the reference architectures, integration standards, and governance patterns for low‑code AI agents that connect Microsoft 365 and core enterprise systems. The architect partners with business and technology stakeholders to translate priority use cases into secure, scalable, production‑grade copilot experiences aligned with Invesco’s AI strategy, risk posture, and regulatory obligations. The role requires deep hands‑on expertise across the Microsoft AI stack, a pragmatic delivery mindset, and the ability to translate emerging agentic capabilities into measurable business value.

Responsibilities

• Solution Architecture & Design – Define and own the target architecture for CoPilot Studio agents at Invesco, including topic design, generative orchestration, knowledge sources, plugins, connectors, and handoff patterns to Microsoft 365 Copilot. Establish reference patterns for integrating CoPilot Studio with existing Invesco applications, infrastructure (including Cloud across Azure & AWS), and SaaS platforms. Lead architectural reviews, design‑authority sign‑off, and technical due diligence for new copilot use cases across the enterprise.
• Delivery & Engineering Leadership – Partner with product owners, business analysts, and makers to translate business needs into agent designs, conversation flows, and grounded knowledge strategies. Oversee the hands‑on build of priority copilots – authoring topics, prompts, plugins, and custom connectors – and coach engineering teams on best practice. Drive Application Lifecycle Management, source control, environment strategy, and CI/CD for CoPilot Studio solutions using Power Platform Pipelines and Azure DevOps / GitHub.
• Governance, Security & Responsible AI – Define and enforce guardrails for CoPilot Studio, including Data Loss Prevention policies, environment strategy, authentication (Entra ID, SSO, On‑Behalf‑Of flows), data residency, and content moderation. Embed Responsible AI principles – grounding, citations, evaluation, red‑teaming, and human‑in‑the‑loop – into every solution delivered. Ensure all copilots meet Invesco’s information security, privacy, regulatory, and audit requirements.
• Business Partnership & Stakeholder Engagement – Act as the trusted technical advisor to business sponsors, evangelizing both the capabilities and the realistic limits of CoPilot Studio and agentic AI. Build and run a CoPilot Studio centralized practice covering standards, templates, maker enablement, and a value‑tracking framework.
• Operational Excellence – Establish observability, telemetry, conversation analytics, and quality metrics for production agents. Contribute to the management of capacity, consumption, licensing (messages, AI Builder credits, premium connectors), and total cost of ownership across the CoPilot Studio estate. Align CoPilot Studio delivery with Invesco’s modern delivery models and product‑aligned engineering teams.

Qualifications

• Minimum 8+ years in solution architecture or senior engineering roles, with at least 2+ years hands‑on with Microsoft CoPilot Studio (and/or predecessor Power Virtual Agents) delivering production agents.
• Deep, demonstrable expertise across the Microsoft Power Platform – Power Automate, Power Apps, Dataverse, and AI Builder – together with Microsoft 365 Copilot extensibility (declarative agents, API plugins, connectors, and the CoPilot Studio agent builder).
• Strong working knowledge of Azure AI services – Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search (vector and hybrid retrieval), Azure AI Foundry, Document Intelligence, and Content Safety.
• Proven experience with conversational design, prompt engineering, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG), evaluation frameworks, and agent orchestration patterns, including multi‑agent and Microsoft 365 Copilot handoff.
• Solid grounding in identity (Entra ID, OAuth 2.0, On‑Behalf‑Of flow), Microsoft Graph, SharePoint, and enterprise integration patterns (REST, Logic Apps, API Management).
• Experience operating within regulated environments – financial services preferred – including data classification, DLP, and audit controls.
• Demonstrated ability to lead architectural governance forums and mentor multi‑disciplinary teams of professional developers and citizen makers.
• Experience with Power Platform CLI, and Power Platform Pipelines for end‑to‑end ALM.
• Relevant Microsoft certifications (e.g. AB‑100, PL‑600, PL‑400, AI‑102) would be a distinct advantage.
• Experience integrating CoPilot Studio with line‑of‑business platforms in asset management, wealth, or capital markets would be a distinct advantage.
