The Role 

As a member of the Workplace Productivity team, you’ll be part builder, part platform explorer, and part trusted advisor: you’ll help turn the “latest and greatest” capabilities from Microsoft and Google into secure, governed solutions that internal teams can rely on.

We would love to see 

· Understanding of latest AI tooling and working knowledge on governance models 

· Experience understanding and applying governance for AI agents, including oversight of Model Context Protocol (MCP), security, and compliance controls 

· Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365 certifications, such as Azure Solutions Architect Expert and Microsoft 365 Administrator Expert, or equivalent credentials demonstrating advanced cloud and enterprise administration expertise 

· Security Certifications - SANS or similar 

· Google Workspace Administration experience/certifications

· Deep understanding of Microsoft 365 services and how to utilize, manage, secure them at enterprise scale 

· Strong proficiency in Azure Entra ID, including understanding its dependencies related to identity and access security, as well as features like Conditional Access, Defender for O365 etc. 

· Demonstrated success in delivering data protection and compliance solutions for financial institutions by designing DLP policies and integrating Microsoft 365 and/or Google Workspace with third-party security systems 

· Familiarity with security posture improvements and hardening concepts in cloud environments (e.g., least privilege, logging/monitoring/auditing). 

· Experience designing and operating web and Windows services that integrate with other internal systems and platforms 

· Demonstrated experience managing DevOps pipelines, leveraging GitHub for configuration-as-code, and enabling automated, scalable deployments 

· Experience across all phases of the software development life cycle, including design, implementation, testing, deployment, and operational support
