Job Description
Microsoft is a company where passionate innovators come to collaborate, envision what can be and take their careers further. This is a world of more possibilities, more innovation, more openness, and the sky is the limit thinking in a cloud-enabled world. Microsoft’s Azure Data engineering team is leading the transformation of analytics in the world of data with products like databases, data integration, big data analytics, messaging & real-time analytics, and business intelligence. The products include Microsoft Fabric, Azure SQL DB, Azure Cosmos DB, Azure PostgreSQL, Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, and Power BI. Our mission is to build the data platform for the age of AI, powering a new class of data-first applications, and driving a data culture. Within Azure Data, the messaging and real-time analytics team provides comprehensive solutions and a robust platform that enables users to ingest high granularity signals (real-time & observability) and complex data, converting those into a competitive advantage in real-time for both end users and modern applications. We’re Azure Messaging – a rapidly growing group of around 40 engineers – and we’re experts at moving hundreds of millions of small packets of information into and out of the cloud, per second. We work on the cutting edge of distributed messaging systems, where milliseconds latency, massive throughput and 99.99% service availability aren’t tradeoffs – they’re all necessary. Our infrastructure needs to be resilient enough for financial transactions, rapid enough for streaming and gaming applications, and still nimble enough to move many petabytes of data per day. We build the Azure Service Bus (http://aka.ms/servicebus), Azure Event Hub (http://aka.ms/eventhub), Azure Event Grid (http://aka.ms/azureeventgrid) and Fabric RTI Eventstreams (http://aka.ms/eventstream) services, which help power Microsoft SaaS applications like Office 365, Xbox Live, Halo, Application Insights (and many, many more), as well as thousands of external Microsoft customers. Our group fosters a diverse, inclusive, and collaborative work culture that prioritizes people at all times. We are looking for a Site Reliability Engineer II to help scale and operate Fabric Event Stream as a globally distributed, highly reliable platform, with a primary focus on region build-out, deployment, and site reliability engineering (SRE).
