Software Engineer II

On Team Xbox, we aspire to empower the world’s 3 billion gamers to play the games they want, with the people they want, anywhere they want. Gaming, the largest and fastest growing category in media & entertainment, represents an important growth opportunity for Microsoft. We are leading with innovation, as highlighted by bringing the Game Pass subscription to PC, bringing Xbox to new devices with Cloud Gaming, and our recent acquisition of Activision Blizzard King creating exciting new possibilities for players.

The Xbox Experiences and Platforms team is home to the engineering work that makes this vision possible, building the developer tools and services that enable game creators to craft incredible experiences, the commerce systems that connect publishers with their audience and help gamers engage with their next favorite games, the platforms on which those games play at their best, and the experiences that turn every screen into an Xbox.

Our Experiences Engineering team is looking for a Software Engineer II to help us build future shared Xbox experiences across PCs, Consoles, Handhelds, Mobile devices, Smart TVs, and Web browsers. These experiences range from storefronts and content discovery to gaming community and cloud gaming features. In your role you will work alongside a diverse team of Software Engineers, Program Managers, and Designers to create technologies that empower team Xbox to delight gamers no matter where they play.

You will be collaborating on native and managed code bases that form the foundational architecture for identity and social experiences that are shared across all our platforms. Working with other developers on the team, your contributions will build important capabilities that help gamers play and engage with the games they love.

We welcome gamers and non-gamers alike, and actively seek out new perspectives to make our products better for everyone. Come join Experiences on Team Xbox and help define what’s next for Gaming!

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.
