Senior Software Engineer

Azure High Performance Computing and Artificial Intelligence Platform group is the team behind Azure’s cloud offering that powers some of the most demanding and largest-scale Artificial Intelligence training and inference workloads in the industry. The virtual machine series that our team owns combines cutting-edge graphics processing units (GPUs) and accelerators, as well as a state-of-the-art scale-out network infrastructure to enable these workloads. We collaborate with many Microsoft teams and our industry partners to design and bring up the underlying platform, and we build the software to expose this platform as an Azure service. As a Senior Software Engineer in the Azure High Performance Computing and Artificial Intelligence team, you will play a critical role in both enhancing our current graphics processing unit virtual machine offerings as well as designing and delivering the next generations of our platform by solving technical problems at all levels of the stack, contributing to our codebases to enable new features on our virtual machines, and collaborating with our industry partners. This position involves deep technical work covering a broad range from hardware/software interactions, device virtualization, and performance analysis of graphics processing unit workloads in virtual machines. Since our team is also responsible for the vertical integration of our virtual machine offerings, you will also have the opportunity to work with upper layers of the Azure infrastructure software as well as directly engage with our high-volume internal customer teams to resolve issues they face on our current offering. It is an exciting time for the team as we are working on expanding the capacity and range of supported scenarios to fuel the next growth wave. This position offers a unique opportunity to have a huge impact on Microsoft’s Artificial Intelligence infrastructure and Artificial Intelligence initiatives. Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees, we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
