You will work closely with your customers in driving the vision and developing roadmaps. Being a foundational layer of Microsoft means that your leadership and individual work will have a broad impact across the entire company.

As an engineering leader you will need to learn fast and contribute to both the backend and frontend. The service is being developed in a "next generation" solution with a frontend written in Angular and a backend written in C#, among other technologies. We leverage Azure components including web services, Azure SQL, Queues, App Insights, DocumentDB (NoSQL), and Azure Functions. We have a variety of synchronous and asynchronous systems working together to support security at hundreds of datacenters around the world. We will own this service from the ground-up. We have several other interesting projects on the horizon focusing on improvements to datacenter physical security leveraging RFID, computer vision, feature detection, and pattern matching in large data sets.
