It is a mobile first, cloud first world and we’re empowering it. Microsoft Azure is at the heart of the Microsoft Cloud providing the backend infrastructure for hyper-scale distributed and dynamic computing. Our team within Azure provides the software platform which enables internal Microsoft services (including Office 365, Bing.com, XBOX Live, Skype, and OneDrive) as well as many external customers to run their large-scale mission-critical Cloud applications for their businesses. We are looking for a world-class Software Engineer to help us continue to evolve, expand, and define our software platform and infrastructure. Some of the many areas we are tackling include ring 0 and (-1) core infrastructure services, five 9s (99.999%) reliability, fault-tolerance, distributed service monitoring, operational efficiency within the datacenter hardware lifecycle, performance metrics collection/analysis, alerting, visualization, device operations, and coordination of node diagnostics and repairs. This is a fun and fast-paced environment and a great opportunity to work on something highly strategic to Microsoft and extremely relevant in the industry. There are very few opportunities in Computer Science which have the potential impact to work at the massive scale like we do. If you’re like us and passionate about building robust highly distributed software systems defining the backbone to the Microsoft Cloud, let’s talk.
