Are you a data professional deeply interested in the current race in AI? Come join us! We are looking for a Data Scientist to support Compete. We help quantify how Microsoft products are performing relative to the broader marketplace e.g. market share across a variety of metrics. We use a wide combination of data sources (1P, 3P, public, surveys, panels, etc) and science models to produce our estimates. As a business facing team, interest and ability to connect product and strategy hypotheses back to data and qualitative factors is central to the role. AI is a big focus, both as a competitive space (e.g. Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc) and because we are actively integrating AI into our daily workflows. Join over 150 data scientists on the broader horizontal IDEAs team where data science, engineering, and PM work together to support multiple business and product verticals at scale! In this role you will both support stakeholders directly and work with the broader IDEAs team to scale your solutions across Microsoft. We play a crucial role in supporting Microsoft 365 and the Experiences + Devices group (E+D), both of which are central to the Company's mission to empower individuals and organizations to achieve more. Our objective is to foster a data-informed culture by equipping the Experiences + Devices group with actionable insights to guide their decisions. This initiative represents a significant opportunity to deliver impactful information that will improve operational efficiency, drive empowerment, and support Microsoft’s success in the evolving AI landscape.
