Software Engineer II

At Microsoft, our core mission is empowering every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. Microsoft Entra sits within our Security, Compliance, Identity and Management Division and is at the heart of the day-to-day technology experience for billions of humans globally, playing a critical part in enabling everyone to achieve more. Our suite of products powers everything from Windows to Office, Azure to Xbox. Microsoft Entra is a dynamic and inclusive team which cares deeply about our customer experience and works to solve extraordinarily complex problems at extreme scale. If that sounds fun, we would love to meet you!  

Microsoft Entra is seeking a Software Engineer II to join our team and help tackle some of our most complex problems – our Routing team, of which you would be a part, is charged to increase availability of mission-critical services, building better software to serve over 1B humans globally. Are you passionate about distributed systems, and how to build and run them at extreme scale? Are you curious, a learner, someone who wants to grow in the craft of software engineering? 

You will work on some lynchpin services in Microsoft Entra, e.g. traffic management, runtime platform (K8s) or livesite management. These services process millions of requests per second, powering hundreds of billions of authentications per day, and with challenging availability targets (>99.99%). You will be part of the team shipping critical software quickly and safely. This is a hands-on role, you will need to be a team player, equally comfortable designing the better mousetrap, and rolling up your sleeves to ship the new mousetrap from whiteboard into production.
