This is a unique opportunity to use your diverse skills and experience in building core technologies that will directly affect the future of Microsoft on the cloud.

Not if we can help it. Security is a key component of our work but that's not all we do. We are looking for people who can design and implement cloud scale platform services in these areas. These positions also involve developing distributed services at hyper scale and the mindset that comes with developing these services. A lot of innovation is happening in security at extreme cloud scale. Our team's goal is to ensure that Azure Security is the most secure and resilient cloud platform with high development agility and operational efficiency.

We also consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements. If you need assistance and/or a reasonable accommodation due to a disability during the application or the recruiting process, please send a request via the Accommodation request form.

Benefits/perks listed below may vary depending on the nature of your employment with Microsoft and the country where you work.

In this position, you can take charge and own all aspects of building and running highly available secure distributed services while providing mission critical functionality for Azure. These projects have the highest priority at Azure and we provide the support you need to complete these projects. In our group, you and your work will be seen, appreciated, and rewarded. You will be the technical lead for various features and facilitate design discussions.

We know it's lonely at the top, so in addition to the excitement of working on new technologies, upward trajectory to your career, and compensation commensurate with your expertise and experience, we provide a close team-oriented environment with knowledgeable members who collaborate and engage in rapid experimentation and turnaround. In our group we ask questions and generate answers. Some of the questions we ask are "How do you develop services that compensate for 5% of the hardware being defect without generating a support call?" and "How do we protect against widespread outage while rolling out a service that has a bug that was not discovered in testing?" If you like figuring out a conundrum and working in a cohesive group, join us at Azure Security
