The AI Training team is tasked to deliver next generation Deep Learning infrastructure, so that data scientists from Azure customer base, Bing, Cortana, Office 365 and MS Research can enrich their target customers experience with the magic of AI.
As a team, we adopt a culture of meritocracy, bias towards taking big risks and failing fast, and value hacking together. You will join a team of talented infrastructure DevOps to embrace Docker, Kubernetes, TensorFlow, CNTK and High-Performance Compute (HPC), engage AI GPU and high-speed connect hardware vendors, actively participate and contribute back to Open Source communities. Most importantly, you will have unique opportunities in engaging data scientists who work on the bleeding edge of deep learning, and practice "know your customers better than they know themselves".
