Microsoft has been leading the AI transformation. The Business & Industry Copilot Organization (BIC)’s mission is to transform business applications, low code platforms, and industry solutions through copilot and generative AI. The Copilot AI Team plays two critical roles in implementing BIC’s vision. First, we are the world-class experts on the science and technology of generative AI (large, small, language, action, action, multi-modal, fine-tuning) and know how to use them with Microsoft technology stack. Second, we architect how BIC products consume our innovations and own generative AI service end points with engineering rigor (aka. Copilot AI Platform). We have completed the first full fiscal year in the era of generative AI, and delivered hundreds of new Copilot features in Dynamics 365 and Power Platform, over 2 million monthly active users for our Biz apps copilots, new industry & ISV capabilities supporting Copilot, and even transforming Microsoft’s own internal business operations through Copilot.
We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to join our team. We are a growing team of Data Scientists, Architects, Software Engineers, and Product Managers with responsibilities that span across multiple key areas. We build different AI technologies together with multiple product teams in BIC, including Business Applications, Power Platform, and Microsoft Copilot Studio. We develop platform components that benefit all BIC Copilots in the Dynamics and Power suite.
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.
