Microsoft Artificial Intelligence (MAI) is the organization within Microsoft that encompasses Copilot, Bing, Edge, and fundamental AI. It’s designed to create the world’s most compelling and successful consumer artificial intelligence (AI) products and models. If successful in our mission to produce an AI companion for everyone, this will have a profound impact on society, changing everything from health and education to social relationships and work. Working with the MAI organization, we are now looking to establish a new leading publication with a distinct brand identity to understand this shift and discuss it in an independent framework. We are seeking a Content and Social Media Program Manager to bring both structure and flair to its operations and public-facing activities. This role is at the intersection of publishing, communications, logistics, promotion and cross-functional support across the range of our output—both supporting the journal’s launch and growth while also coordinating key events and initiatives across MAI. From curating convenings and high-profile lectures to managing editorial operations, building a readership and social media storytelling, this is a can-do generalist role for someone with taste, agility, and executional excellence. You’ll help shape how Microsoft AI shows in the world—and how the department makes its ideas real.
