Do you want to directly impact hundreds of millions of devices every month and enjoy the gratification that comes from keeping millions of customers protected from the ever-growing threats of cyberattacks? Do you have the engineering skills, attention to details and quality, passion for building systems and services that delights our customers and allows them to be productive? Do you want to be part of a diverse, fast paced and highly technical team that takes pride in regularly delivering value to our business customers on time with quality in an agile cadence? You will want to talk to us! We are part of Windows Servicing and Delivery (WSD) team that delivers high quality servicing releases to keep Microsoft customers protected and productive by continuously building and delivering Windows Operating System updates to consumers, enterprises and Microsoft Cloud customers. Our team is trying to solve the problem of not only keeping the Windows powered enterprises, data centers, and cloud services safe and secure through software updates but also to consume these Windows updates with zero to minimal downtime such that businesses and consumers continue to remain available and productive deploying these updates. We are building a system that will help in engineering, building, delivery and deployment of software updates for a code base as big and wide as Windows in a re-bootless way. We are building a modern AI powered engineering system that is intelligent, efficient and can operate on a scale to produce re-bootless updates. We will also enhance Windows with new innovations and capabilities to deploy, monitor and manage these updates. You will work across OS components, compiler-linker-loader tool chain, installers and management to build the stack and overall solution. If you are a deep thinker and passionate about problem solving. If scalability, performance, downtime, high availability problems get you thrilled. If you are excited about leveraging AI to solve engineering and scale problems, then this is a great opportunity to build your career and create business impact.
