Job Description:

Providing for loved ones, planning rewarding retirements, and preparing for the future — our policyholders rely on Pacific Life to be there when it matters most. We succeed by working together and by continuously improving the tools and technologies that power the enterprise. At Pacific Life, you’ll find not just a job, but a purpose‑driven career supported by balance, innovation, and opportunities to shape the future — including your own.

We’re actively seeking a Platform Engineering Consultant to join our M365 Engineering team in Newport Beach, CA.

As a Platform Engineering Consultant you will play a key role in advancing Pacific Life’s modern workplace by architecting, optimizing, and supporting Microsoft 365 applications and capabilities. You’ll bring deep expertise across the M365 ecosystem — from Teams, SharePoint, and Exchange Online to security, identity, and emerging AI‑driven productivity tools — ensuring our workforce has secure, scalable, and reliable digital experiences.

How You’ll Make an Impact

  • Lead design and delivery of M365 solutions, including Teams, SharePoint Online, OneDrive, Exchange Online, Intune, Azure AD, identity protection, and related M365 security workloads.
  • Implement and optimize Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio capabilities, enabling secure and scalable AI‑powered workflows across the enterprise.
  • Collaborate with business and engineering partners to build M365‑powered automations, applications, workflows, and custom Copilot Studio agents aligned to Pacific Life’s objectives.
  • Serve as the M365 SME, providing technical guidance, troubleshooting, governance insights, and best practices across collaboration, communication, and AI capabilities.
  • Monitor the Microsoft 365 roadmap, evaluate new features, and drive proactive adoption strategies to keep Pacific Life at the forefront of modern workplace innovation.

What You Bring

  • Expertise across the Microsoft 365 application suite with hands‑on experience designing and supporting solutions in Teams, SharePoint, OneDrive, Exchange Online, Intune, Azure AD, and related services.
  • Experience with prompt engineering, Copilot Studio agent development, and integrating generative AI features into core M365 apps and workflows.
  • Strong understanding of responsible AI, data governance, privacy, and compliance within regulated industries.
  • Architectural proficiency with M365 Hybrid environments, identity management, and M365 security protection suites.
  • Ability to translate business requirements into M365‑based solutions that improve productivity, automate processes, and simplify user experience.
  • 10+ years designing, architecting, and deploying Microsoft platform–based solutions.
  • 7+ years serving as an M365 SME in an enterprise environment.
  • 5+ years architecting or migrating workloads to M365 cloud services.

What Makes You Stand Out

  • 1+ years of hands‑on experience implementing and supporting Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio in a large enterprise.
  • Microsoft certifications (MCSE, M365 Administrator Expert, etc.).
  • Proven ability to present M365 roadmaps and solution designs to senior leaders.
