Principal Software Engineer - Microsoft Teams

Principal Software Engineer

Microsoft Teams is the hub for modern collaboration within the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, bringing together everything teams need to succeed in one place. As one of Microsoft’s most dynamic and impactful products, Teams is redefining the future of work and teamwork. Our Teams Immersive Experiences engineering group is at the forefront of this innovation; building next-generation meeting experiences that leverage cutting-edge AI and multi-modal interactions to make virtual meetings more intelligent, natural, and engaging.

We are seeking a Principal Software Engineer with deep full-stack expertise and proven technical leadership skills to help drive these innovations and deliver best-in-class meeting experiences to millions of users. In this role, you will contribute across the full stack: from the user-facing web UI of Teams meetings to the highly scalable cloud services that power real-time communication. You will work closely with a talented team of engineers to design, build, and integrate new capabilities into the Teams platform, ensuring they are robust, secure, and performant. This is a high-impact, high-ownership, hands-on position. You will lead by example in architecture and coding, guiding the team on engineering best practices, and driving critical technical decisions that shape our product’s future. The ideal candidate is passionate about innovation and quality, adept at solving complex problems at cloud scale, and equally excited to mentor others and foster a culture of excellence.

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.
