• Own the vision and multi-release strategy for Copilot extensibility — connectors (out-of-the-box, custom, and partner/ISV), skills and agent capabilities, and the EVAL systems that measure and safeguard quality — and align it to company-level AI and M365 goals. 
• Define the platform and developer experience that lets partners and ISVs onboard, register, and ship extensions without friction, ensuring governance and catalog changes protect rather than disrupt the partner ecosystem. 
• Set the quality bar for grounded AI: drive the EVAL strategy that closes the gap between golden-set benchmarks and real in-market coverage, and turn evaluation signal into a roadmap for retrieval, relevance, and reliability. 
• Translate customer perspectives, enterprise needs, and business goals into experiences that developers and admins love and that thread intelligence throughout — from authentication and data governance to end-user value. 
• Own feature specs, delivery of features into production, business analysis, and adoption plans across a cross-functional design and engineering team. 

Required/Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's Degree AND 6+ years experience in product/service/program management or software development.
  • OR equivalent experience.

Additional or preferred qualifications

Other Requirements: Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role. These requirements include but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings:

Preferred Qualifications:

• 10+ years of enterprise product and/or cloud service development experience as a PM with a proven track record of shipping and delivery. 
• Proven experience in multiple software product development methodologies. 
• Effective cross-group collaboration skills with a proven ability to drive results in cross-functional teams. 
• BS or MS in Computer Science or related field required; MBA is highly desired.
• Proven track record of seizing ambiguous opportunities, driving clarity into them, and creating impactful results that benefit the company through deeply involved interactions and discussion. 
• Deep understanding of AI technologies such as large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, machine learning, and natural language processing — and how to apply them to grounding, extensibility, and evaluation. 
• Solid intuition for platform and API product management: developer experience, ecosystem/partner strategy, and the tradeoffs of building for extensibility at scale. 
• Leadership, critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration, with the ability to build solid partnerships across teams. 
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills and an attention to detail; solid executive presentation skills. 
• A good understanding of how software is built and how an engineering product cycle works. 
• Thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic, results-driven environment with a passion to delight customers.
