Microsoft Azure Edge + Platform (E+P) is a globally distributed team of engineers, architects, program managers, product managers, business program managers, business administrators, user experience researchers and designers who are responsible for the platform for Microsoft and for delivering Microsoft’s edge vision. We create the most reliable and trustworthy OS and platform services to empower Microsoft and our customers to achieve more. We unlock the next wave of opportunity at the edge through an at-scale ecosystem driving widespread adoption of our Microsoft cloud services.

Microsoft’s Edge + Platform Security Fundamentals (EPSF) team is looking for a Senior Security Program Manager to join our Microsoft Offensive Research & Security Engineering (MORSE) team. The MORSE team is responsible for securing the Windows client and server operating systems, used by billions of customers every day in businesses and across Azure. This team performs security design reviews, code reviews, and penetration testing on key features of Windows and Azure to make sure they meet the highest possible security standards, as well as defines security requirements and best practices that all of our platforms must adhere to.  Our platforms serve as the foundation for nearly everything the company builds. From Windows Client and Server to edge devices to Azure and Xbox – the security of everything built on top of our platforms relies on the premise that the platform itself is secure.

In this impactful role, you will partner with engineering and PM teams inside and outside EPSF to secure the operating systems built at Microsoft. The ideal candidate will have experience with native code (C/C++), penetration testing (code audit, writing fuzzers, finding creative ways to break assumptions), a clear understanding of OS (Operating System) security fundamentals, solid computer science skills, and a passion for keeping Microsoft customers safe. 

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
