Job Description:

This is an exciting time to join the Business and Industry Solutions (BIS) and work on something highly strategic to Microsoft in shaping the future of the autonomous enterprise and lead the development of intelligent, agent-first experiences that transform how businesses operate. The Business and Industry Solutions (BIS) team is looking for a Applied Scientist II to drive innovation at the intersection of AI, experimentation, and enterprise systems. In this role, you will design and evaluate autonomous agents that deliver measurable improvements in accuracy, latency, and cost-efficiency. You’ll lead rapid experimentation cycles, develop robust evaluation frameworks, and apply advanced techniques like reinforcement learning to enable multi-step reasoning and decision-making. You’ll collaborate across engineering, product, and partner teams to ensure agents are performant, secure, reliable, and extensible—empowering customers and partners to build on our platform. This is your opportunity to influence the next generation of AI-native business applications and deliver real-world impact at scale.

Job Responsibility:

  • Deliver impactful solutions by executing high‑leverage data science and analytics initiatives within a product area or feature team, ensuring measurable improvements to user and business outcomes
  • Lead the design and implementation of advanced model fine‑tuning pipelines, including Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), to align AI system behavior with user intent and improve performance in real‑world scenarios
  • Own complex, end‑to‑end projects that combine technical depth with cross‑functional collaboration, influencing feature direction and prioritization rather than broad organizational investment decisions
  • Develop and maintain robust measurement systems, experimentation frameworks, and causal inference methodologies tailored to dynamic AI systems and enterprise‑scale environments
  • Leverage AI to streamline workflows and enhance team productivity through intelligent automation and innovation

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field AND 2+ years related experience (e.g., statistics, predictive analytics, research)
  • OR Master's Degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field AND 1+ year(s) related experience
  • OR Doctorate in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field
  • OR equivalent experience
  • 2+ years developing and evaluating AI systems
  • Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements
  • This position will be required to pass the Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter

Nice to have:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field AND 5+ years related experience
  • OR Master's Degree in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field AND 3+ years related experience
  • OR Doctorate in Statistics, Econometrics, Computer Science, Electrical or Computer Engineering, or related field AND 1+ year(s) related experience
  • OR equivalent experience
  • 1+ year(s) experience creating publications (e.g., patents, peer-reviewed academic papers)
