Role-Readiness Proof / Capstone
Engineer an enterprise Copilot solution that spans Microsoft 365 and Azure. Build a declarative or custom agent with clear instructions and enterprise grounding; connect Graph/SharePoint or another governed data source; add actions through Copilot Studio, plugins or APIs; implement a code-first Foundry/Semantic Kernel agent for one complex branch; add MCP or multi-agent collaboration where it improves the workflow; enforce Entra identity, least privilege, data-loss/privacy controls and explicit human approvals; create agent evals and automated regression tests; deploy with telemetry, reliability targets and cost controls; then demonstrate an end-to-end business process with measured task completion and adoption impact.
Proof Rubric
- Prove enterprise grounding and data-access correctness
- strong Copilot/Foundry architecture
- correct Graph, connector, plugin and tool contracts
- robust Semantic Kernel or Agent Framework implementation
- secure Entra identity and permission boundaries
- responsible autonomous behavior
- eval coverage and regression quality gates
- observability and incident readiness
- scalability and cost awareness
- usable Microsoft 365 experience
- measurable business-process improvement
- and clear reasoning about declarative-vs-custom, low-code-vs-code-first, single-vs-multi-agent and human-vs-autonomous execution
