We will only achieve our mission of transforming how others work if we live our culture. We start with becoming learners in all things and apply that mindset to learning about our customers, being diverse and inclusive, working together as one, and—ultimately—making a difference in the world. 

Running a global world class service that is tightly integrated with mission critical productivity apps (Microsoft Teams and Outlook) with millions of active users presents broad and evolving challenges. We’re constantly in need of improving our engineering systems and cloud services to meet the growing demands of a large user base (and a team of engineers) that are rapidly expanding. We have complex multi-tiered applications running off distributed micro-services, handling billions of user interactions every day, generating petabytes of data that require analysis and transformation, spanned across hundreds of thousands of machines. As a Senior Sofware Engineer, your key responsibilities include the following: 

• Modernizing our systems to ensure that our developers can work with the newest and best technology.  
• Refactoring and optimizing our computations and framework to improve our performance and scalability so that we can deliver cost-effective features.   
• Developing tools to analyze, monitor and recover our services to increase the resiliency of our services.  
• Improving our engineering systems to ensure that our growing and global development team can build, deploy and manage our service in a secured and compliant manner.  
• Build and improve systems that enable big data analysis to measure user and organizational productivity and customer engagement.   

Our customer needs evolve rapidly, our systems are diverse, and our backend challenges are broad. This allows our backend engineers to continuously find new areas of interest to go deep and develop new subject matter expertise, while helping us find better ways to innovate on agility, scale and security. 

We run as a start-up, encouraging team members to share a sense of “founder-ism.” Team members engage directly with customers, iterate rapidly, and focus on solving the needs of employees around the world. Our culture is inclusive, casual, and motivated. Our team celebrates diverse backgrounds, and values passion for serving our customers. Our team has a keen sense of accountability and provides its members with opportunities for learning and career growth. 

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.
