About the role
As a Sr. Solution Principal – Microsoft AI & Innovation, you will be a key presales leader responsible for shaping and selling AI-led professional services across the Microsoft ecosystem. You will consult with clients, assess their AI readiness and Microsoft estate, define pragmatic AI adoption roadmaps, and translate them into clearly scoped professional services Statements of Work (SOWs). Your remit spans the full Microsoft surface area — Modern Work (Microsoft 365, Copilot, Teams), Capability (Azure platform, infrastructure, and security foundations), Application Development (Azure AI, Copilot Studio, custom agents), and Data & AI (Microsoft Fabric, Azure AI Foundry) — with a heavy focus on Microsoft Agent 365 and enterprise AI strategy.
As agentic AI moves from experimentation to enterprise-scale operation, clients need a trusted advisor who can connect AI ambition to a governed, secure, and value-driven adoption path. You will be that advisor — shaping how organizations deploy, govern, and scale AI agents responsibly on Microsoft.
You will need a balance of:
- Strategic presales acumen across the Microsoft AI portfolio
- Deep understanding of AI adoption, Agent 365 governance, and the Microsoft Cloud
- Business consulting and AI strategy skills
- Strong SOW and deal-structuring experience
You will partner closely with account teams, solution architects, and delivery leaders to design AI-driven solutions that achieve measurable client outcomes.
In this role, you will:
Client consulting & discovery
- Align into top accounts to build relationships with senior IT and business stakeholders (CIO, CDO, CTO, CISO, Head of Modern Work, and Line-of-Business leaders).
- Lead AI discovery and readiness workshops to understand current-state Microsoft estate, workplace productivity patterns, data landscape, governance maturity, and agent adoption readiness.
- Assess the client’s Microsoft footprint — Microsoft 365 and Copilot adoption, Azure platform maturity, identity and security posture (Entra, Purview, Defender), and data estate (Fabric, Azure data services) — to identify pain points and AI opportunities.
- Translate business objectives into prioritized AI use cases and adoption roadmaps spanning Copilot rollout, custom agent development, Agent 365 governance, and modern data foundations.
AI strategy & solution architecture
- Define future-state Microsoft AI architectures that span Modern Work, Capability, Application Development, and Data & AI — anchored on Copilot, Copilot Studio, Azure AI Foundry, Microsoft Fabric, and Microsoft Agent 365.
- Shape enterprise AI strategy: help clients move from ad hoc agent experimentation to a governed operating model, defining how agents are identified, owned, secured, and scaled.
- Position Microsoft Agent 365 as the control plane for AI agents — covering agent identity (Microsoft Entra Agent ID), observability, governance, security, and lifecycle management across first-party, custom, and third-party agents.
- Recommend responsible-AI and
