Principal Applied Scientist – Sales Insights Platform
Microsoft
Scalable Analytics Platform
We are building a scalable, Azure-based analytics platform that delivers rich, customer-level sales insights and proactive alerts to Microsoft’s internal sales and account management teams. This platform provides a comprehensive view of each enterprise customer by surfacing insights like abnormal revenue changes, share-of-wallet opportunities, peer benchmarks, competitive keyword gaps, and product feature adoption health, on a daily and real-time basis.
The underlying system leverages traditional machine learning models for data-driven analysis and augments the delivery of insights with agentic inter-operation using large language models (LLMs) to generate meeting briefs, pitch assets, follow-ups, and safe CRM updates for our sales agents.
As a Principal Applied Scientist, you will define technical vision and lead the development of both the ML and LLM components of this platform, ensuring it scales across millions of data points and delivers trusted, actionable intelligence that drives business decisions.
This role is available in either Redmond, WA or Mountain View, CA.
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.
