Redmond, WA $123,850 Overview Corporate Services Finance (CSF) provides financial planning, analysis, and controllership support for Corporate Functions (Corporate, External and Legal Affairs (CELA), Finance, Human Resou Overview Corporate Services Finance (CSF) provides financial planning, analysis, and controllership support for Corporate Functions (Corporate, External and Legal Affairs (CELA), Finance, Human Resources (HR), and Microsoft Office of Strategy and Transformation (MOST)). The CSF team is responsible for P&L (profit & loss) management, decision support, and financial stewardship of $12B in annual global expenses. We partner with leaders across Corporate Functions to enable transformation and optimize resources.   We're looking for a Finance Manager, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), to join our central CSF FP&A team in a high-visibility analytical role at the center of how CSF plans, forecasts, and governs it's spend. You'll own several core processes outright - OPEX (Operating Expenses) forecast support, people cost and headcount analytics, allocated Azure, and non-GWS CAPEX (Capital Expenditure) forecasting - and you'll be the person who turns those numbers into the insights that shape resource decisions across Corporate Functions.   This role will provide you with exposure to the full FP&A cycle, controllers across every Corporate Function, and executive-level reporting, and you'll have real room to redesign the processes you inherit. We're not looking for someone to run the model as it exists today. We're looking for someone who will make it better, faster, and smarter, including by putting AI (artificial intelligence) and automation to work.   What success looks like: Owns their processes outright. Controllers and partners come to you directly for allocated Azure, CAPEX, and people cost questions — and trust the answer. Moves from reporting to insight. Your analysis doesn't just show what happened to people cost; it explains the drivers, flags the risk, and recommends the action. Leaves the process better than they found it. At least one of the processes you inherit is materially faster, more standardized, or automated by year end — and you drove it. Build credibility across the function. You communicate clearly with controllers, finance leaders, and non-finance partners, and adjust the message to the audience. Is a resource, not a silo. When the team is under pressure during close, forecast, or planning, you're someone people want on the problem.   Attributes we are looking for:  Highly analytical, with structured thinking and solid attention to detail. Energized, genuine curiosity, and a growth mindset — you ask why, and you keep learning. Self-starter who operates well with ambiguity and doesn't wait to be told what to analyze. Solid communication skills with the ability to make complex financial data land with a non-finance audience. Collaborative and flexible — works well across teams and steps up on shared priorities.   At Microsoft, our mission—to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more—guides how we partner with customers to deliver trusted, impactful solutions. With a growth mindset culture, we innovate responsibly and measure success by shared progress—people, teams, and customers. Join us to do meaningful work that changes the world and helps shape what’s next for everyone. Responsibilities OPEX forecast and close support. Support the CSF forecast and close cycles end to end — assumption validation, variance analysis, data integrity checks, and the analysis that feeds our close and forecast decks. Partner with controllers to make sure submissions are accurate, well-understood, and land on time. People cost analytics. Own analysis of the largest driver of CSF spend. Evaluate key people cost drivers, build and maintain cost-per-head views by geography, role type, and level, and explain what's moving and why across payroll, stock compensation, signing bonuses, and relocation. Organizational hygiene and headcount insights. Analyze organizational shape across CSF — pyramid, span of control, organization depth — and translate that into insight leaders can act on. Bring the "so what" to headcount trends, hiring activity, and the drivers behind people spend. Allocated Azure and Non-GWS CAPEX. Own the allocated Azure forecast and the non-GWS CAPEX forecast for G&A (General & Administrative) functions across CSF, including actuals review, variance explanation, and forward-looking outlook. Process improvement and automation. Bring a modernization mindset to everything you touch. Identify where reporting and analysis can be standardized, automated, or AI-enabled, and lead those improvements — partnering with our tools and engineering partners where the solution is more complex. Flexible team support. Support the broader central FP&A team on ad hoc analysis and special projects. This team moves, priorities shift, and the people who thrive here lean in where they're needed.

Our work spans workload management, resource governance, admission control, load balancing, capacity planning, performance diagnostics, cloud efficiency and cost attribution, and live-site engineering. We turn deep telemetry into durable platform capabilities so product teams can grow without trading off customer experience, reliability, or cost.  We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to set technical direction for the next generation of workload-management and cloud-efficiency systems. This is a hands-on engineering role with organization-wide scope. You will define architecture, write and review production code, guide critical cross-team investments, and lead complex work from ambiguous problem through measured production outcome. Success means lower latency and failure rates, higher infrastructure utilization, faster diagnosis and recovery, and reusable engineering systems that improve every service built on the platform.    Who Thrives in This Role  You are a systems thinker who stays close to the code and the production behavior. You can move from a profile or packet trace to an architectural decision, from a noisy live-site signal to a reproducible diagnosis, and from a promising algorithm to a safely measured rollout. You challenge assumptions with data, explain trade-offs clearly, and prefer durable platform improvements over one-off fixes.  You also move toward the hardest cross-team problems. You are comfortable creating clarity where ownership is distributed, priorities compete, and the right answer requires both deep technical judgment and sustained influence. At this level, you multiply the effectiveness of other engineers while remaining accountable for concrete shipped outcomes.  Why This Role Matters  Performance engineering is where customer experience, reliability, and cloud economics meet. The systems you shape will determine how efficiently critical business platforms use capacity, how gracefully they behave under stress, and how quickly engineering teams can understand and correct problems. The impact compounds across services, regions, and customers. 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. Responsibilities Set the multi-year technical strategy and architecture for workload management, performance, and infrastructure efficiency across shared Agent 365 Foundation services.  Design, build, and operate distributed control-plane and data-plane capabilities for admission control, resource governance, scheduling, load balancing, throttling, capacity allocation, autoscaling, and graceful degradation.  Lead the development of algorithms and feedback systems that improve utilization and fairness while protecting customer latency, availability, tenant isolation, and service-level objectives.  Build a rigorous performance-engineering system: representative benchmarks, profiling and tracing, production telemetry, anomaly detection, attribution, experimentation, and automated regression prevention.  Translate large-scale telemetry and cost signals into prioritized engineering action; establish measurable goals and prove improvements through controlled rollout, shadow-mode validation, fault injection, and production results Own critical technical decisions across teams and platforms. Identify dependencies early, resolve architectural conflicts, and create designs that can be adopted incrementally without compromising safety or operability.  Operate what you build as a Designated Responsible Individual. Define service-level objectives, participate in on-call, lead complex incident response, and drive root-cause and systemic repair work to closure.  Apply Microsoft's Secure Development Lifecycle, Secure by Design, and Secure by Default practices, including threat modeling, least privilege, credential hygiene, safe deployment, and supply-chain integrity.  Use AI-assisted and agentic engineering practices to accelerate development, performance analysis, incident triage, and optimization while establishing evaluation, reliability, safety, and cost guardrails.  Raise the engineering bar through architecture reviews, code reviews, technical writing, mentoring, and direct collaboration with senior and principal engineers across Agent 365, Power Platform, Dynamics 365, Dataverse, and Azure.  Embody Microsoft's Culture and Values.

Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safe Overview Security represents a critical priority for our customers in a world awash in digital threats, regulatory scrutiny, and estate complexity. Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safer place for all. The Microsoft Security organization accelerates Microsoft's mission and bold ambitions to ensure that our company and industry is securing digital technology platforms, devices, and clouds in our customers' heterogeneous environments, as well as ensuring the security of our own internal estate.   Cyber Defense Operations Detection Engineering owns the end-to-end detection system that turns adversary activity into reliable, high-signal cases for investigation at incident speed. This role sits at the center of that system. You will own a detection portfolio: a named set of threat actors, techniques, and partner platforms for which you are singularly accountable for what we detect, what we stop detecting, and whether we can defend that answer to leadership, auditors, and incident reviewers.   This is a hands-on portfolio role, not a program management role. This role is built for someone who has worked cases. You should have sat in a SOC seat, chased real adversary activity through telemetry, and felt the cost of a noisy detection on the receiving end.  You will author and optimize detections yourself, working directly with our investigation and hunt partners to convert engagement findings into production detection logic. But the majority of your leverage comes from the decisions you make about the portfolio rather than the detections you write personally: what gets built, who builds it, what gets onboarded, and what gets turned off.   We are looking for a  Senior Detection Portfolio Engineer to join the team!   Starting February, 2026, Microsoft employees are expected to work from a designated Microsoft office at least three days a week if they live within 50 miles (U.S.) or 25 miles (non-U.S., country-specific) of that location.

Principal Security Architect
Redmond, WA $223,500 Overview The Microsoft Red Team (MRT) attacks Microsoft services and technologies to identify critical and systemic security risks, demonstrate authentic attack paths, and help engineering teams, inv Overview The Microsoft Red Team (MRT) attacks Microsoft services and technologies to identify critical and systemic security risks, demonstrate authentic attack paths, and help engineering teams, investigators, and incident responders improve their ability to protect, detect, investigate, and respond to real attacks. Red Team operations create a unique security engineering challenge. Authorized operators use many of the same techniques as sophisticated adversaries across complex cloud, identity, endpoint, network, and application environments. Microsoft must be able to observe those operations, protect and manage the infrastructure that enables them, and distinguish authorized activity from genuine adversary activity without weakening either offensive realism or defensive response. As a Principal Security Architect in Microsoft Red Team Engineering, you will serve as the “blue team to the Red Team.” You will set technical direction and deliver critical capabilities that make Red Team operations observable, secure, reliable, and safely distinguishable from real attacks at scale. This is a Principal individual-contributor role focused on the telemetry, detections, monitoring, deconfliction, and operational infrastructure surrounding Red Team engagements, rather than on executing the engagements themselves. You will work at the intersection of offense and defense, partnering closely with Red Team operators, software engineers, detection engineers, security researchers, threat intelligence, incident response, and platform and telemetry teams across Microsoft. As a peer to Red Team operators, you will define what effective visibility looks like for adversarial operations, drive the right telemetry into centralized monitoring, and design and implement detections that distinguish authorized operations from real attacks using the same tradecraft. You will shape the architecture and strategy for Red Team telemetry, monitoring, detection, alerting, deconfliction, and operational security, while working with engineers and partner teams to turn that strategy into durable production capabilities. The role requires deep security expertise, strong software and systems engineering judgment, and the ability to move between architecture and implementation, solve ambiguous cross-organization problems, and enable others to deliver at greater scale. Responsibilities •    Define and drive the technical strategy and architecture for Red Team visibility, telemetry, detection, deconfliction, and operational security. •    Use live Red Team operations, security incidents, threat intelligence, and adversary activity to identify systemic visibility and control gaps and translate them into prioritized engineering investments. •    Architect and build scalable services and data pipelines that collect, normalize, enrich, and correlate Red Team telemetry to make the right signals available to defenders. •    Drive the development of monitoring, hunting, detection, and alerting capabilities that help contextualize Red Team activity, identify unexpected or unauthorized behavior, and distinguish authorized operations from genuine adversary activity. •    Build durable deconfliction capabilities that combine operational context, asset and identity information, infrastructure signals, and behavioral telemetry while protecting sensitive Red Team information. •    Own and evolve the authoritative inventory of Red Team operational assets, ensuring infrastructure, tooling, identities, and related metadata are accurate, automated, auditable, and usable by monitoring and deconfliction systems. •    Raise the engineering bar across Red Team systems through strong patterns for testing, reliability, observability, secure development, deployment, and infrastructure lifecycle management. •    Provide hands-on technical leadership through architecture, implementation, reviews, debugging, operational response, and mentorship, while influencing engineering teams and roadmaps across Microsoft. •    Help ensure Microsoft can conduct authentic Red Team operations with strong visibility, control, and confidence in its defensive response. Qualifications Required/minimum qualifications Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 6+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python OR equivalent experience. Other Requirements Ability to meet Microsoft, customer, and/or government security screening requirements is required for this role.

Experience in cybersecurity, including one or more areas such as security telemetry, detection engineering, security monitoring, incident response, threat analytics, cloud security, identity security, endpoint security, or offensive security infrastructure. Experience designing distributed services, data pipelines, automation, or large-scale security platforms. Demonstrated ability to set technical direction in ambiguous problem spaces, identify systemic risks, and translate complex security challenges into durable engineering solutions. Proven ability to influence architecture, priorities, and execution across multiple teams and organizations, and to communicate effectively with engineers, security practitioners, and senior technical leaders.

The difference between a transfo Overview The Frontier Transformation Framework helps our customers become Frontier Firms: organizations where AI is part of the operating system the business runs on. The difference between a transformation and a one-off deployment is what happens after go-live. Without a deliberate improvement and optimization discipline, returns erode: adoption plateaus, agents drift, prompt libraries go stale, and high-value agents are starved while low-value ones persist. Intelligent Optimization is the operating discipline that makes AI value compound over time rather than dissipate. The Frontier Transformation team is how the Microsoft Frontier Company, the organization this role sits within, delivers this: a small, senior human-agent team in which each member carries one of the Framework's eight capabilities into the customer, directs a set of digital co-workers to deliver at a scale headcount alone could not, and is designed to fade into a customer counterpart who can carry the work forward.   We are seeking a Frontier Intelligent Optimization SME to make AI value compound across strategic customer engagements. In this role, you will establish and run the Intelligent Optimization Framework as a permanent operating rhythm, grounded in kaizen and strong facilitation, that redesigns and reruns workflows to outcomes. You will solve the last-mile problem, embedding what gets built into how work actually gets done through standard work, clear ownership, and an execution cadence that makes new ways of working stick, working directly with business owners, operators, champions, and the Value, Skilling, Change, and engineering leads.   This is a role for people who are energized by making change hold rather than launching it, who can read measurement signals and turn them into the next round of improvement, and who believe a program that ships once and leaves is just a release, not a transformation. You are designed to fade into a customer counterpart who owns the improvement rhythm after the engagement ends. If you are excited by turning AI deployments into value that compounds cycle after cycle, this role is for you.   Responsibilities Core Responsibilities   Establish and run the Intelligent Optimization Framework as a permanent, always-on operating rhythm rather than a one-off activity, grounded in kaizen and strong facilitation.   Redesign and rerun workflows to outcomes, running structured improvement cycles in which each measurement cycle feeds and improves the next. Solve the last-mile problem by embedding new ways of working into standard work, clear ownership, and a disciplined execution cadence. Read the Copilot Dashboard and other measurement signals to find where usage is shallow, which roles are stuck, and where behavior change is or is not landing, and convert those signals into prioritized improvements. Continuously refine prompt libraries, enablement materials, and agent configurations based on usage data and Work IQ behavior signals. Detect and correct agent drift, retire or rework low-value agents, and direct further investment toward high-ROI agents. Establish standard work, ownership, and review cadences that make improvements durable and repeatable across teams. Facilitate improvement events and retrospectives that treat friction and feedback as inputs to the next cycle rather than one-off fixes. Capture reusable improvement patterns and playbooks that raise the quality and speed of every subsequent cycle. Transfer the  optimization discipline, cadences, and tooling to the customer's own people so the rhythm is sustained after the engagement fades. Recommend and drive the discontinuation of workflows, agents, and enablement assets that are not returning value (including work the engagement itself originally built) to ensure capacity flows to the most im portant value .   Success in this role looks like   AI value compounds cycle after cycle rather than plateauing after initial deployment. Adoption deepens, agents stay tuned and current, and prompt libraries and enablement stay fresh. New ways of working stick because they are embedded in standard work, ownership, and an execution cadence. Investment flows to high-ROI agents while low-value ones are reworked or retired. The customer runs the  intelligent optimization rhythm independently after the engagement fades. Low value work is deprioritized and stopped. Subtraction is accepted by the customer as a normal part of the improvement rhythm.   Qualifications Required/Minimum Qualifications Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field AND 6+ years experience in technology solutions, practice development, architecture, consulting, and/or technology domain (e.g., Security) Master's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field AND 4+ years experience in technology solutions, practice development, architecture, consulting, and/or technology domain (e.g., Security)  OR equivalent experience. Proven track record running continuous improvement or operational excellence programs that delivered sustained, measurable results. Hands-on experience with kaizen, Lean, or comparable improvement methodologies and facilitation of improvement events. Experience establishing standard work, ownership models, and execution cadences that make change durable. Experience with quality assurance or evaluation practices for production systems. Ability to read operational and adoption metrics and translate them into prioritized improvements. Strong facilitation and stakeholder-management skills across business and technical teams. Ability to work directly with operators and business owners to embed new ways of working into daily operations. Strong problem-solving skills in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.   Additional or Preferred Qualifications  Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field AND 8+ years experience in technology solutions, practice development, architecture, consulting, and/or technology domain (e.g., Security) Master's Degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or related field AND 6+ years experience in technology solutions, practice development, architecture, consulting, and/or technology domain (e.g., Security) OR equivalent experience.
