Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safer place for all. We want to reshape security and empower every user, customer, and developer with a security cloud that protects them with end-to-end, simplified solutions. The Microsoft Security organization accelerates Microsoft’s mission and bold ambitions to ensure that our company and industry is securing digital technology platforms, devices, and clouds in our customers’ heterogeneous environments, as well as ensuring the security of our own internal estate.

Devices, Messaging, Identify, Web, and the Cloud are integral parts of our everyday lives. They are essential for many things we do but are also a primary way cybercriminals exploit users and infiltrate organizations. Do you want to join a team dedicated to protecting billions of people from these threats? At Microsoft Security, our mission is to make the world a safer place for all. As a member of the Microsoft Threat Protection Research team, you’ll be joining a diverse global community of engineers, data scientists, security researchers, threat hunters, and program managers. We cultivate extensive knowledge of attacker tactics and leverage cutting-edge technology to combat them effectively.
We are looking for a Principal Director of Technical Program Management to lead the Protection Programs and Customer Engagement team within Microsoft Threat Protection Research (MTP-R). This team is accountable for driving end-to-end protection programs across the MTP suite and reimagining how we engage with customers to deliver unified, impactful security experiences. This leader will play a critical role in shaping how we plan, execute, and evolve protection strategies across Microsoft Security.
This role requires a deep understanding of what it means to lead large-scale, operationally intensive programs that support millions of customers—and the accountability that comes with it. The team balances the urgency of delivering protection outcomes with the discipline of long-term planning, customer empathy, and technical rigor. A successful leader in this role will bring clarity and cohesion to complex initiatives, foster cross-organizational collaboration, and drive a strategic vision that reflects the full breadth of Microsoft’s protection platform. Are you ready to take on this challenge?
