AI & Data Governance Engineer

Cyclotron is hiring an AI & Data Governance Engineer to help enterprise clients govern AI, agents, and data across the Microsoft ecosystem. The role configures governance controls, establishes lifecycle and operating processes, and delivers client frameworks, playbooks, workshops, and training.

Responsibilities:

• Implement agent lifecycle governance across Agent Builder, SharePoint agents, Copilot Studio, and Copilot connectors: intake forms and routing, maker access and publishing models, ownership change processes, monitoring, and retirement
• Configure Copilot Studio-specific DLP and connector policy (event triggers, channels, knowledge sources, HTTP requests, Graph and federated connectors) and credit consumption caps
• Support Agent 365 governance: agent inventory, identity, policy, and audit alongside Defender, Purview, and Entra ID
• Build AI CoE operating artifacts: roles and responsibilities, monitoring cadences, Agent Insights reporting, and review and escalation workflows
• Contribute to AI Opportunity Labs: AI solution and agent inventory, risk and security gap analysis, and governance maturity scoring
• Configure Microsoft Purview for AI readiness: sensitivity labels, DLP, information protection, retention, audit, and DSPM for AI
• Perform data estate and oversharing assessments across SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams, and recommend remediation before Copilot and agents go broad
• Support catalog, classification, lineage, and data ownership work in Purview and Fabric, and govern Dataverse data used by apps and agents
• Configure environments, environment groups, managed environments, and security group and role assignments; validate DLP impact on existing resources
• Implement ALM processes with Power Platform Pipelines or Azure DevOps, including approval gates and end-to-end test deployments
• Deploy and report from the CoE Starter Kit and Copilot Studio Starter Kit
• Apply Microsoft 365 and Azure governance fundamentals where they touch AI: external sharing, retention, Azure Policy, and RBAC
• Act as a trusted advisor to client administrators, platform owners, and security teams; explain governance trade-offs clearly
• Co-lead governance workshops, discovery sessions, and knowledge transfer; deliver instructor-led training on Copilot Studio governance when needed
• Contribute to deliverables: governance frameworks, intake and lifecycle playbooks, runbooks, validation summaries, and decision logs

Requirements:

• 4+ years of enterprise Microsoft platform experience, with 2+ years hands-on in Copilot, Copilot Studio, Purview, or Power Platform governance or administration
• Hands-on Copilot Studio experience, including agent publishing, security settings, knowledge sources, connectors, and how agents interact with Microsoft 365
• Hands-on Microsoft Purview experience: sensitivity labels, DLP, retention, and audit, ideally applied to Copilot or agent scenarios
• Working Power Platform governance experience: environment strategy, DLP, managed environments, and PPAC administration
• Solid understanding of Entra ID, least privilege, conditional access, and RBAC as they apply to AI and data controls
• Evidence of implementing governance in production tenants, with some exposure to designing or recommending the approach
• Clear, confident client communication and strong emotional intelligence; you can hold your own with technical leads and brief executives with support
• You have configured Copilot Studio or Agent Builder governance controls in a real tenant and can walk through the choices you made
• You have run an oversharing or data readiness assessment ahead of a Copilot or agent rollout
• You have supported an agent intake, approval, or CoE process that clients actually used
• Microsoft Fabric and Dataverse-to-Fabric integration patterns
• Azure AI services: Azure OpenAI, AI Foundry, AI Search, and content safety
• Familiarity with responsible AI frameworks such as NIST AI RMF or ISO/IEC 42001
• ServiceNow or ITSM-based intake and approval workflows
• Certifications such as SC-401, SC-900, PL-900, AB-100, or MS-102, or equivalent experience
• Consulting or professional services experience
• You follow the release plans for Copilot Studio, Agent 365, and Purview and try features in preview
