Description

Overview

Microsoft is a company where passionate innovators come to collaborate, envision what can be and take their careers to levels they cannot achieve anywhere else. This is a world of more possibilities, more innovation, more openness in a cloud-enabled world. The Business & Industry Copilots group is a rapidly growing organization that is responsible for the Microsoft Dynamics 365 suite of products, Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, AI Builder, Microsoft Industry Solution and more. Microsoft is considered one of the leaders in Software as a Service in the world of business applications and this organization is at the heart of how business applications are designed and delivered.  

We’re an incubation team within Microsoft Copilot Studio building something fundamentally new: AI agents that can operate as teammates in the enterprise - agents that can take on multi‑step work, operate across contexts, retain memory, and handle novel problems with minimal supervision. These agents collaborate with users across Microsoft 365—participating in conversations, coordinating in Teams, documents, and acting across productivity tools—reliably enough that enterprises can trust them with real responsibilities as part of the working team.

This is greenfield platform work at the intersection of distributed systems, applied AI, and user experience. As a Senior Software Engineer, you will help define how autonomous agents operate within enterprise environments and shape the architecture that enables them to run reliably at scale.

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.
