Overview

Azure Arc is connecting the rest of the world's computing power to Azure. As Azure Arc team, we extend Azure’s cloud capabilities to on-premises, multi-cloud, and edge environments, simplifying the management of servers and Kubernetes environments. By projecting servers and Kubernetes clusters into Azure Resource Manager, customers can easily manage configurations and applications, enable monitoring and security, and deploy 1st and 3rd party applications.


As a Senior Software Engineer, you will work on designing, coding, validating, shipping, and running high scale services. You will collaborate with a dynamic team and contribute to all aspects of the stack, from agents running on servers and Kubernetes clusters to high-scale, globally distributed cloud services. You will integrate with other Azure services and create solutions using C#, Go, Kubernetes, Linux, Windows Server, and open-source technologies.

You will have end-to-end ownership of your areas, including design, code, testing, and telemetry coverage. As a senior engineer on the team, you will mentor early-career engineers. This is an opportunity to collaborate with various teams and disciplines to deliver results that exceed our customers’ expectations, expand your knowledge, and accelerate your career growth.

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.
