The Azure Core Organization is responsible for creating the foundation of Microsoft’s Cloud Platform for utility computing. This platform is one of the lowest levels of the services software/hardware stack and includes an efficient, virtualized computational substrate, a fully automated service management system, and a comprehensive set of highly scalable storage services.
Azure is a rapidly growing and evolving cloud platform; teams collaborate to manage the capacity lifecycle from demand signals to hardware decommission. Our vision is to create a Capacity Infrastructure Services (CIS) platform to automate hardware, software, and devices provisioning/de-provisioning functions, datacenter operations, business processes, and deliver data analytics e2e. This will enable Microsoft services to manage capacity in a consistent, efficient, and secure way.
As a Software Engineer in the CIS team, you will contribute to developing a holistic resource provisioning ecosystem to secure, validate and provision the Azure platform and contribute to the fastest growing cloud platform on the market. This opportunity will allow you to see the internals of Azure core services, learn how they bootstrap and scale, and have the chance to own an area of million-dollar business impact.
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.
