Responsibilities
- Define Windows Fundamentals metrics, success criteria, cohort strategies, and measurement frameworks across reliability, performance, responsiveness, power, battery life, memory, and storage.
- Architect, build, deploy, and operate scalable backend services and data pipelines for telemetry ingestion, transformation, orchestration, storage, health monitoring, diagnostics, and engineering workflows.
- Establish standards for service reliability, security, compliance, observability, data quality, schema evolution, deployment safety, incident response, and operational support.
- Analyze telemetry, diagnostic signals, and traces to identify trends, anomalies, regressions, causal factors, and customer impact.
- Lead metric investigations using statistical methods, experimentation, systems debugging, and performance-analysis tools, and convert findings into prioritized engineering actions.
- Build automation, AI-assisted analysis, dashboards, alerts, and diagnostic workflows to detect issues earlier and reduce manual engineering effort.
- Provide technical leadership across Windows engineering, data science, security, silicon, OEM, and service teams; mentor engineers and influence architecture and investment decisions.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related technical field and 8+ years of technical engineering experience with coding in languages including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python, or equivalent experience.
- Three or more years of experience in backend service development, data engineering, distributed systems, large-scale analytics, systems analysis, or related work.
- Demonstrated success architecting, developing, deploying, and operating reliable production services, data pipelines, telemetry systems, analytics, or engineering platforms.
- Strong software design, programming, debugging, statistical reasoning, and problem-solving skills, including the ability to lead ambiguous technical work and influence decisions through evidence.
- Experience with operating systems, Windows internals, distributed services, system-level development, performance engineering, data engineering, or large-scale fleet analytics.
- Experience defining organizational KPIs, establishing baselines and cohorts, investigating regressions, and communicating insights to engineering and leadership audiences.
- Experience designing scalable telemetry schemas, service APIs, orchestration systems, data-quality controls, monitoring and alerting, anomaly-detection systems, or automated diagnostic workflows.
- Experience with Kusto, Azure services and data platforms, privacy-conscious telemetry, secure service operations, statistical analysis, machine learning, or AI applied to engineering analysis and diagnostics.
- Ability to meet Microsoft, customer, and/or government security screening requirements, including the Microsoft Cloud Background Check.
Benefits
- The position requires passing the Microsoft Cloud Background Check upon hire or transfer and every two years thereafter.
- Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis until the position is filled, with the posting open for a minimum of five days.
- Microsoft provides equal employment opportunity and accommodation support during the application process.
