  • Partner with security, compliance, and governance groups
  • Improve partner experience across Collaborate and Reporting workflows
  • Define and execute a multi‑year modernization strategy
  • Leverage automation and AI to reduce friction and improve productivity
  • Deliver incremental value while shaping long‑term architecture

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience
  • Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role
  • Microsoft Cloud Background Check: This position will be required to pass the Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter
