Microsoft 365 Copilot is a groundbreaking productivity tool that leverages the power of large language models, user data, Microsoft Graph, and the web to drive unparalleled creativity and productivity. At the heart of this innovation is the Office AI team, which plays a crucial role in the development of Copilot experiences across M365 and an expanding list of partners across Microsoft. We own the infrastructure that enables complex orchestration of M365 Copilot workflows to put powerful AI capabilities at the user’s fingertips, as well as the chat user experience and horizontal skills, and extends across Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and an expanding list of partners across Microsoft. As a Software Engineer II on the Office AI Platform team, you spend most days designing and implementing changes to core feature and platform components that power Copilot across Office apps. You review telemetry to understand how your features behave in production, debug issues across client and service boundaries, and iterate with partner teams to land integrations cleanly. You write and review code, add or refine instrumentation, update tests and build pipelines, and contribute to drive root‑cause investigations when something breaks. Your work alternates between building new platform capabilities and strengthening the reliability, performance, and security of existing ones so Copilot scenarios run consistently at Microsoft scale.
Job Responsibility:
Design, implement, test, and ship platform components used by multiple Office apps (client or service), with emphasis on performance, reliability, and maintainability
Collaborate with PMs and partner teams to translate requirements into design docs and execution plans
own feature delivery end‑to‑end
Add high‑quality telemetry, logging, and dashboards
use signals to validate behavior, detect regressions, and drive mitigations in production
Participate in on‑call rotations
triage incidents, perform root‑cause analysis, and deliver durable fixes and recovery mechanisms
Contribute to platform auth and security best practices and help roll out improvements safely
Develop and maintain high‑quality, maintainable code in one or more of C#, TypeScript/Node.js
contribute to unit and integration tests, as well as CI pipelines
Partner with others to improve local build/run, evaluations for Copilot workflows, and developer tooling that speeds platform iteration
Review Pull-Request (PR)s, share knowledge, and contribute to inclusive team culture
mentor early‑in‑career engineers
Document designs and operational playbooks for discoverability and supportability
Balance near‑term agility with longer‑term platform consistency
pay down engineering debt thoughtfully
