The posting

Overview

Are you a software engineer who loves code, moves fast, and enjoys solving problems at scale? Are you excited about AI and want to build the platform that makes AI reliable, resilient, and effortless to operate at global scale?

Do you want to work with cutting-edge open-source and cloud technologies and build systems that are fault-tolerant, self-managing, self-healing, and highly scalable across public and private datacenters around the world? Do AI, Big Data, cloud infrastructure, Docker, Kubernetes, and distributed systems excite you?

If yes, come build with us.

Join the Azure Intelligent Container Platform team within CoreAI and help shape the infrastructure behind the next generation of AI-powered cloud services.

Azure AI Services enable customers to build intelligent applications with powerful capabilities to see, hear, speak, understand, and interpret using deep learning and large language models (LLMs). Our mission is to transform these breakthrough AI technologies into production-ready, first-class Azure services—delivering the reliability, scale, simplicity, and performance customers need to bring AI innovations to life.

Responsibilities

This role offers end-to-end ownership and real-world impact. You will work closely with leading technology providers and engineering teams to bring cutting-edge AI technologies to Azure—from architecture and productization to platform engineering, deployment, performance, reliability, security, and customer experience.

You will solve challenging problems across the entire software stack and have the opportunity to influence both how the technology is built and how millions of customers experience AI at Azure scale.

You will:

  • Build for massive scale: Design and develop highly available, scalable distributed systems running across global public and private datacenters.
  • Engineer for resilience: Build platforms that are fault-tolerant, self-managing, self-healing, and designed for operational excellence.
  • Push cloud-native innovation: Leverage Docker, Kubernetes, open-source technologies, and cloud platforms to solve complex infrastructure challenges.
  • Make AI production-ready: Turn rapidly evolving AI and cognitive technologies into reliable, secure, performant, and easy-to-use Azure services.
  • Own the full lifecycle: Drive solutions from architecture and system design through implementation, testing, deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.
  • Solve hard problems: Tackle challenges in distributed systems, performance, availability, scalability, security, privacy, and user experience.

Ship technology that matters: Build products and platforms that enable AI experiences for customers around the world.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
