Azure Compute is Azure's most profitable business and is growing incredibly fast! We provide millions of virtual machines for customers to run their workload in the cloud. We are a globally available foundational service that hosts services with the scale of Bing/Skype/ AzureStore/SQL, host millions of multiplayer gaming sessions and allow solving large computational problems in seconds. The Azure Computer Manager is the "kernel" of the Microsoft Compute Cloud. We build a fault tolerant distributed system on top of commodity datacenter hardware, to deliver an infrastructure for hosting cloud applications in virtual servers. We create an illusion that resources are limitless, infinitely elastic, and always available.
We are working on a few different areas that you can help provide an impact: Projects improving cluster scale and density- this includes capabilities and mechanisms for large service footprints, managing 20x more physical machines and services than it does today, schemes to improve VM density, reducing cluster fragmentation, increase utilization of compute cores; expanding azure capabilities for containers (Docker/Hyper-V Containers), etc. We are building a set of highly scalable, highly available, micro services that will be the next generation of the Compute Fabric and provide service management
If you want hands-on services architecture experience, being a part of significant service re-architecture, this is the role for you. If you are someone who would like to produce impact across a large number of systems; if you have a penchant to learn and utilize your broad skill sets to produce great customer impact; if you have hands on experience with design on large scale and development of highly available distributed systems, then this opportunity is the one - Join the Compute Manager and help us build the foundation for the cloud to power the future of computing!
