Job Description:
The Azure AI Translator team at Microsoft builds the core technologies that power multilingual communication across Microsoft products and services—including Azure Cognitive Services, Office, Bing, and global enterprise solutions. Our work brings together cutting-edge language models, scalable cloud systems, and worldwide deployment needs to deliver fast, reliable, and secure translation experiences at massive scale. As a Senior Software Engineer on the Azure AI Translator team, you will design, build, and maintain the tools, services, and platforms that enable translation services for over 100 languages. Your work will span cloud-native services, CI/CD pipelines, large-scale distributed systems, and internal engineering tools that support the full lifecycle of model training, evaluation, and deployment. You will improve developer workflows, enhance system reliability, and enable the Translator team to ship high-quality language technologies quickly and confidently. This is a deeply technical role requiring hands-on design and development expertise. We are looking for candidates with experience building and maintaining infrastructure for large-scale services, ideally hosted in GitHub or Azure DevOps, and deployed across Azure environments. We foster a collaborative, growth-oriented culture where engineers are encouraged to experiment, share knowledge, and push boundaries. Initiative, adaptability, and a bias for action are essential as we continue to advance the state of AI-powered translation.
