The Cloud Consoles team at Microsoft is seeking a Software Engineer to help design, build, and operate distributed systems that power mission-critical services such as Serial Console, Cloud Shell, and future cloud infrastructure initiatives. This role offers hands-on experience with real-world distributed systems at scale, making it ideal for engineers who are eager to deepen their technical expertise and contribute to foundational cloud services.
In your first 60 days, you will ramp up on the team’s architecture, tooling, and processes while contributing to bug fixes and small improvements. By 120 days, you will own the development of a backend feature or service, collaborating with senior engineers and stakeholders.
