Job Description:
The Cloud and AI Platforms Monetization (“CAPM”) organization is a big picture team at our core that encourages a diverse and inclusive culture. We are respectful, collaborative, honest, accountable, and caring. Employees on the team can expect to have opportunities to grow their own experience and career while shaping the future of the Azure business with data-informed strategies. We are growth strategists who monetize product value and improve the buying experience for customers to drive business growth and profitability for Microsoft. The CAPM team enables the Microsoft mission by creating durable profit growth through high-impact monetization strategies, packaging, and pricing. Azure Integration Services is a growing $1B+ portfolio at the heart of the Azure Application Platform, powering how modern applications connect, communicate, and scale. This role offers the opportunity to shape a platform that sits at the crossroads of cloud‑native architectures, enterprise modernization, and the next generation of AI‑driven integration patterns. As AI adoption accelerates, Azure Integration Services – inclusive of API Management, Logic Apps, Service Bus, and Event Grid – has become the critical control plane for the AI application stack to govern and scale the APIs/API calls, AI models, agents, and event flows that power intelligent applications – making this one of Azure’s most important AI‑adjacent growth engines. We are seeking a Business Planner to join our team! In this role, you’ll convert technical capabilities and product roadmap into durable business outcomes by defining monetization strategy, shaping business models, and driving pricing and packaging decisions that deepen product‑market fit. You’ll contribute to simplifying the customer experience, designing adoption motions, and turning customer signals into clear business and commercial choices. Your work will directly influence how developers and enterprises adopt and scale Azure Integration Services globally. Our team is customer‑focused and inclusive, values collaboration and data‑driven problem solving, and works across cross-functional partner teams to define and execute business models and monetization strategies that drive long‑term growth. You’ll work closely with engineering, product, finance, marketing and sales to bring clarity to portfolio decisions, streamline and modernize offers, and ensure that Azure’s integration platform is positioned to win in an evolving cloud and AI landscape. If you thrive in strategic, cross‑functional, and high‑impact environments, this is a uniquely visible opportunity to shape how modern applications are built and governed in the AI era.
