Custom Software Engineer

Project Role : Custom Software Engineer Project Role Description : Develop custom software solutions to design, code, and enhance components across systems or applications. Use modern frameworks and agile practices to deliver scalable, high-performing solutions tailored to specific business needs. Must have skills : Microsoft Copilot Studio Good to have skills : .Net Full Stack Development, React.js, Microsoft Foundry Minimum 3 year(s) of experience is required Educational Qualification : 15 years full time education Role Summary: Builds, configures, and publishes Copilot Studio agents end-to-end — designing topics, 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, 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/Team Lead on agent design, security, and ALM alignment participate in code/config reviews. Required Skills & Experience Strong development experience, with strong 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.
