Overview

The Artificial Intelligence Frameworks team at Microsoft develops AI software that enables running AI models everywhere, from world’s fastest AI supercomputers, to servers, desktops, mobile phones, Iot devices, and internet browsers. We collaborate with our hardware teams and partners to build the software stacks for AI across Microsoft.
Our stack enables ML developers to optimize and scale out model training and inference.  We work directly with OpenAI on the models hosted on the Azure OpenAI service. The ONNX Runtime is shipped in major Microsoft products, including Office, Windows, Bing, SQL Server, and Dynamics, serving trillions of inferences daily.

The team operates at the intersection of AI algorithmic innovation, purpose-built AI hardware, systems, and software. We are a cross-disciplinary team of highly capable and motivated people with a collaborative and inclusive culture. We collaborate with and contribute to the open-source community.  

As a Senior Software Engineer on the team, you will have the opportunity to work on multiple levels of the AI software stack, including the fundamental abstractions, programming models, compilers, runtimes, libraries and APIs to enable large scale training and inferencing of models.

  

This is a hands-on technical role: as a senior software engineer it requires hands-on software design and development skills. We’re looking for someone who has a demonstrated history of solving technical problems and is motivated to tackle the hardest problems in building a full end-to-end AI stack.  An entrepreneurial approach and ability to take initiative and move fast are essential.

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.
