  • Expertise in PowerShell, Azure CLI or other tools used for scripting and automation.
  • Strong communication skills across technical and executive audiences
  • Experience in both government and commercial environments preferred
  • Technical focus areas

  • Grounding & data access Configure web grounding and Microsoft Graph grounding (Graph connectors, indexing scope, ACL mapping) to ensure least‑privilege access to SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and line‑of‑business repositories.
  • Extensibility Support Copilot Studio / Teams extensions as applicable; document integration patterns and guardrails.
  • Security & monitoring Enable auditing, logging, and alerting across Microsoft 365 / Entra; integrate with Log Analytics and SIEM / SOAR.

  • AI Policy & Governance (Government Context)

  • Draft and operationalize acceptable use, data classification / handling, human‑in‑the‑loop requirements, red‑teaming, incident response, and model safety boundaries.
  • Align controls to Zero Trust principles and frameworks relevant to the environment (e.g., NIST 800‑53 / 171, FedRAMP baselines).
