Copilot Studio JD

Role Summary - Builds, configures, and publishes Copilot Studio agents end-to-end — designing topics / skills, knowledge sources, and generative answers, and extending agent capabilities through Power Automate, MCP Server tool connections, and Azure AI Foundry-hosted models where needed.

Key Responsibilities

- Design and build Copilot Studio agents, including topics, skills, trigger phrases, entities, variables, and conversation/agent flows.
- Configure generative orchestration, knowledge sources, and generative answers to ground agent responses accurately.
- Build and maintain Power Automate flows to extend agent actions, handle backend processes, and connect to line-of-business systems.
- Implement and consume MCP Server tool/plugin connections to extend agent capabilities beyond native Copilot Studio actions.
- Configure and test agent publishing across channels (Teams, web, custom apps) and manage environment/ALM practices (dev-test-prod).
- Tune agent behavior, instructions, and prompts within Copilot Studio; use Azure AI Foundry for advanced model selection or custom grounding (e.g., RAG) when native capabilities aren't sufficient.




- Conduct unit-level testing of topics, flows, and tool integrations; troubleshoot conversational breakdowns and connector/plugin issues.
- Apply responsible AI practices, including bias, safety, and hallucination checks, during agent development.
- Collaborate with Architect on agent design, security, and ALM alignment; participate in code/config reviews.
- Required Skills & Experience

- Strong development experience, with robust hands-on expertise in Copilot Studio (topics, generative orchestration, knowledge sources, publishing, and ALM).
- Working knowledge of Power Automate for flow-based automation and integration with Copilot Studio agents.
- Experience configuring MCP Server/tool connections to extend agent actions.
- Working familiarity with Azure AI Foundry for model selection, prompt engineering, and grounding patterns (RAG, agentic workflows) as a supporting skill.
- Understanding of responsible AI principles and bias/safety validation practices.
- Agile delivery experience preferred; strong debugging and conversational-flow troubleshooting skills.
