FAQ

Microsoft AI staffing, answered.

Where do you find senior Microsoft AI experts?

Mostly outside job boards. We source through the Microsoft practitioner communities: user groups, community forums, meetups and conference speakers, with priority to recognised community contributors. Lead time depends on how scarce the profile is; we give you a realistic estimate when we qualify the brief.

How do you vet Microsoft AI consultants?

Every profile passes three checks: a technical interview led by a senior peer on the same Microsoft stack, verification of vendor credentials against the official registry where one exists, and reference calls on past enterprise deliveries. Profiles that fail any step are not presented.

What engagement models do you offer?

Three models: staff augmentation (an expert embedded in your team, billed on a daily rate), a dedicated squad (architect plus engineers delivering an agreed scope), and a fractional AI architect (two to eight days a month for design authority and governance).

Can your experts work within our Microsoft tenant security model?

Yes. Our Microsoft profiles are used to Entra ID conditional access, Purview sensitivity labels and private endpoints, and work under your tenant policies with named accounts and least-privilege access.
