About the RoleNimble Gravity is looking for a
Copilot & Power Platform Architect to lead the design and delivery of
enterprise automation and AI-enabled solutions for our clients.
This is a
client-facing consulting role where you'll own the technical architecture end-to-end: from discovery and stakeholder workshops through build, governance, and deployment. You'll architect
Copilot Studio agents and
Power Platform solutions that integrate seamlessly into Microsoft 365 environments-while ensuring the governance, security, and ALM practices needed to scale.
This role is approximately
80% client delivery, with opportunities to shape internal standards (
10%) and support pre-sales solutioning (
10%). You'll collaborate with data engineers, AI specialists, and delivery leads who share a bias toward shipping high-quality work that creates real value.
What You'll DoArchitecture & Delivery- Design and deliver end-to-end Power Platform solutions across Power Apps (Canvas + Model-driven), Power Automate, Dataverse, and Power Pages, selecting the right tools based on business goals and platform constraints.
- Architect and deploy Copilot Studio agents embedded into real workflows, leveraging patterns such as RAG, prompt orchestration, grounding, and tool calling when appropriate.
- Define scalable integration patterns across Microsoft 365 (Teams, SharePoint, Outlook), Azure services, and third-party systems via APIs, custom connectors, and on-premises gateways.
- Establish strong ALM practices in client environments: solution packaging, managed solutions, environment strategy, deployment pipelines, and release controls.
Governance & Security- Build governance frameworks that scale: environment segmentation, tenant strategy, DLP policies, RBAC, capacity planning, and lifecycle management.
- Define guardrails for responsible AI: data boundaries, access controls, privacy/compliance considerations, auditability, and monitoring.
- Design identity and security architecture with Entra ID, ensuring solutions meet enterprise security requirements.
Client Leadership- Lead discovery workshops to assess current state, capture requirements, and define target architecture.
- Produce clear client-ready deliverables: technical design docs, architecture diagrams, and implementation roadmaps.
- Communicate tradeoffs and recommendations to both technical teams and executive sponsors, tailoring your approach to the audience.
- Support pre-sales as needed: scoping, estimation, solution design, and technical demos.
Enablement- Contribute to Nimble Gravity's internal standards: reference architectures, templates, governance playbooks, and reusable patterns.
- Coach client makers and pro developers on best practices, including Center of Excellence (CoE) patterns and enterprise operating models.
What We're Looking For (Must-Haves)- 5+ years architecting and delivering Microsoft Power Platform solutions in enterprise environments (Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse).
- Hands-on experience with Copilot Studio and/or Microsoft 365 Copilot, including custom copilots/agents integrated into business processes.
- Strong command of Power Platform governance: environment strategy, DLP policies, ALM, and tenant administration.
- Proven experience designing integrations across Microsoft 365, Azure services, and external systems using connectors/APIs/gateways.
- Experience leading client-facing consulting engagements: workshops, technical documentation, and stakeholder presentations.
- Deep understanding of identity and access management with Entra ID (Azure AD).
- Working knowledge of AI solution patterns relevant to Copilot implementations: RAG, prompt design, grounding, evaluation.
- Excellent communication-able to explain technical concepts to non-technical audiences without losing precision.
- Ability to travel occasionally (~10-20%).
Nice to Have- Microsoft certifications: PL-600, PL-200, PL-400, MS-600, and/or AI-related certifications.
- Experience with Azure AI services (Azure OpenAI Service, Azure AI Foundry, Azure AI Search, Cognitive Services).
- Exposure to data platforms like Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, Synapse.
- Familiarity with Power BI development and integration with Power Platform solutions.
- Consulting background at a Microsoft Partner/SI/professional services firm.
