Description

Overview AI is transforming the world - and design is evolving with it. At Microsoft, we’re not just designing for the future - we’re designing with it. As Microsoft continues to push the boundaries of AI, we are on the lookout for passionate individuals to work with us on the most interesting and challenging AI questions of our time. This is your opportunity to help shape a new era of human-computer interaction - where design and intelligence move in harmony, and designers and AI collaborate as creative partners. We’re inviting the next generation of creative thinkers and doers to help shape how people work, learn, communicate, and create - with AI not as a tool, but as a teammate. We’re looking for a Product Designer II to join us in Microsoft 365 Copilot team - someone who thinks beyond screens and pixels, sees interfaces as intelligent systems, workflows as conversations, and products as living, learning collaborators. As both a designer and a builder, you already embrace GenAI and agents to amplify your capabilities and unlock new potential. If you thrive in ambiguity, love exploring the unknown, and want to define design in the age of intelligence, we’d love to work with you. 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. Responsibilities Ship world-class AI applications that delight consumers with an emphasis on craft, quality, trust, and positive user and societal impact. Translate abstract AI potential into tangible, elegant user experiences. Drive speculative design explorations, future concepts, and vision work that stretch what’s possible, must value craft and translate vision into well-polished design prototypes. Own a product area and be responsible for understanding user needs and behaviours, defining product requirements, managing end-to-end product development, launches and iterations. Collaborate deeply with product managers, engineers, and researchers to define user flows, prototypes, and end-to-end journeys that blend human intent and AI potential. Qualifications Required Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Design, Product Design, Human Computer Interaction, User Experience, Interaction Design, or related field AND 4+ years experience working in product or service design. OR Master's Degree in Industrial Design, Product Design, Human Computer Interaction, User Experience, Interaction Design, or related field AND 3+ years experience working in product or service design. OR equivalent experience (e.g., demonstrated experience working in product or service design and using design thinking to solve problems). A portfolio demonstrating strong interaction + visual design and prototyping skills. Strong command of all aspects and levels of interaction/UX design from information architecture to systems and workflows to micro-interactions. A proven track record of creatively solving hard problems, driving complex design issues across multidisciplinary groups such as engineering, product management, research and marketing; and shipping relevant experiences within deadlines. User-centric approach to design and an understanding of how to apply research insights into design and development of product experiences. Experience in data driven decision-making. Outstanding storytelling ability to generate empathy, using written and verbal communication, presentation, and organizational skills. A portfolio review presentation is expected as part of the interview process for this role. Your presentation should showcase your work experience and demonstrate your design and storytelling skills, along with your authentic interest for the space through compelling communication. This position will be open for a minimum of 5 days, with applications accepted on an ongoing basis until the position is filled. Microsoft is an equal opportunity employer.
