Member of Technical Staff - Technical Program Manager
Redmond, WA $222,050 Overview Copilot is evolving into an agentic system that can plan, reason, and execute actions across tools, data, and services. Securing such a system cannot rely on static controls, offline review, Overview Copilot is evolving into an agentic system that can plan, reason, and execute actions across tools, data, and services. Securing such a system cannot rely on static controls, offline review, or policy‑only enforcement. It requires runtime defenses that adapt to intent, behavior, and context as the system operates. Copilot Security and Privacy is responsible for building these defenses directly into Copilot. Our work focuses on new security primitives for agentic AI, including runtime misuse detection, adaptive guardrails, containment and isolation mechanisms, and feedback‑driven control systems informed by offensive security research. We are hiring a Principal Technical Program Manager (TPM) to own the end‑to‑end delivery of these capabilities. This is a deeply technical execution role for someone who can operate at the boundary of security engineering, AI research, and platform systems—turning ambiguous threat models into shippable, operable defenses deployed in a globally scaled AI product. This role is not about process, governance, or coordination. The TPM is accountable for making complex systems land in production, under real‑world adversarial pressure. Most security roles protect systems after they exist. This role helps define how agentic AI systems defend themselves while they operate. You will shape how Copilot detects misuse, enforces boundaries, and recovers safely in real time—working directly on the mechanisms that make autonomy deployable at global scale. The impact is immediate, technical, and measurable in production behavior. If you want to operate where AI systems, security engineering, and execution reality intersect, this role offers that surface area—without turning you into a policy owner or process layer. 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.   Starting January 26, 2026, Microsoft AI (MAI) employees who live within a 50- mile commute of a designated Microsoft office in the U.S. or 25-mile commute of a non-U.S., country-specific location are expected to work from the office at least four days per week. This expectation is subject to local law and may vary by jurisdiction. Responsibilities Own Delivery of In‑Product AI Threat Defenses Lead execution of runtime threat defense capabilities embedded directly into Copilot execution paths, not layered on externally. Drive delivery of detection, prevention, and containment mechanisms that operate synchronously and adaptively as agents reason and act. Ensure defenses are designed as control systems with clear signals, enforcement points, and feedback loops. Translate Threat Models into Executable Systems Take emerging and ambiguous agentic AI threat models—including misuse, escalation, and information‑flow risks—and convert them into concrete engineering plans. Partner with security engineers and researchers to translate offensive security insights and red‑team findings into production features. Make judgment calls about enforcement boundaries, degradation strategies, and isolation guarantees. Drive Cross‑Cutting Technical Execution Coordinate delivery across security engineering, AI research, platform/runtime teams, and Copilot product surfaces. Own dependency management, sequencing, and delivery risk for systems that are tightly coupled and cannot be built independently. Resolve technical and organizational tradeoffs where ownership boundaries are unclear and failure modes are novel. Ensure Operability at Runtime Define what “working” means for threat defenses: detection quality, false‑positive tolerance, performance impact, and blast‑radius containment. Ensure defenses are measurable, testable, and observable in production. Lead learning loops from live incidents, near‑misses, and adversarial testing back into system design. Qualifications Required Qualifications: Bachelor's Degree AND 6+ years experience in engineering, product/technical program management, data analysis, or product development OR equivalent experience. 3+ years of experience managing cross-functional and/or cross-team projects. Preferred Qualifications: Bachelor's Degree AND 12+ years experience engineering, product/technical program management, data analysis, or product development OR equivalent experience. Proven ability to lead execution in high‑ambiguity environments where requirements, threats, and system behavior evolve rapidly. Solid systems thinking: ability to reason about execution paths, failure modes, and adversarial behavior. Track record of making sound technical tradeoffs and shipping durable solutions without relying on heavy process. Background in security engineering, distributed systems, applied research, or ML systems prior to or alongside TPM work. Experience delivering runtime detection, abuse prevention, or adaptive enforcement systems. Familiarity with agentic AI systems, LLM‑based products, or non‑deterministic execution environments. Experience partnering closely with offensive security or red‑team functions. Demonstrated ability to translate research, prototypes, or threat models into production‑grade systems. Solid analytical skills, including working with telemetry, signals, and feedback loops. #MicrosoftAI #MAIDPS Technical Program Management IC5 - The typical base pay range for this role across the U.S. is USD $139,900 - $274,800 per year.

The role is the single-threaded owner for a portfolio of cross‑functional relationships and programs, ensuring they are executed with clear operating models, decision rights, escalation paths, and engagement norms—especially at “incident pace,” where ambiguity creates risk. This role ensures that cross-company work does not degrade into ad‑hoc “who owns what” debates but instead follows defined constructs that distinguish security risk ownership from operational execution, with measurable outcomes and durable governance.   CDO/Ops Hub and partner organizations often move at different speeds, with different mandates, which can lead to unclear handoffs, role confusion, and slower response—particularly during high-severity incidents and complex cross-org programs.This role exists to eliminate ambiguity by translating “RACI on paper” into lived, repeatable operating behavior, and by upgrading partner engagement structures, so coordination is predictable and fast. This role partners across: CDO/Ops Hub functions that coordinate incident response and enforce cross-company process/routing. CISO organization stakeholders involved in incident response, decision-making, and governance constructs. Post‑incident review and process partners where handoffs and ownership must be explicit. Engineering/Product/Compliance partners involved in risk and remediation execution models (operating model emphasis on common language, responsibility clarity).   Core Deliverables: Cross‑Org Operating Model Playbook: clear scope, decision rights, RACI, escalation paths, engagement norms. Partner Engagement Plans for priority stakeholders: cadence, artifacts, shared tooling, and issue-resolution mechanisms. Handoff Contracts / Interface Maps: explicit “start/stop” responsibility boundaries for key workflows (incidents, PIRs, audit requests, comms, etc.). Executive‑Ready Briefs: decision memos and status updates grounded in defined constructs and measurable outcomes.   Success Measures: Measured outcomes should reflect clarity, speed, and reduced friction, such as: Partner teams can articulate where responsibility starts/stops, and incidents execute with fewer ownership disputes. Reduction in partner confusion flagged as a blocker during high‑severity incidents (tracked through partner relationship upgrade metrics). Improved consistency and predictability of cross‑org handoffs (e.g., PIR ownership clarity, documentation standardization, streamlined handoff process). Increased adoption of standard engagement frameworks (fewer side channels; better planning/lead time discipline). Responsibilities Key Responsibilities:   1) Operating Model Ownership: Define “Who Owns What” (and Make It Real) Define and maintain clear ownership boundaries and “handoff contracts” across teams (e.g., what CDO/Ops Hub owns vs. what partner orgs own). Translate abstract RACI into operational execution behaviors under pressure (e.g., incident declaration, response strategy, comms lanes, escalation). Ensure operating models distinguish security risk ownership from execution, reducing duplication and conflicting authority.   2) Partner Relationship “Portfolio” Management (Business + Security Stakeholders) Build and run a structured portfolio of partner relationships, including engagement plans, shared artifacts, and regular sync mechanisms (“infrastructure to support collaboration”). Drive targeted relationship upgrades with prioritized partners to reduce confusion during incidents and cross-org execution. Establish predictable engagement pathways (intake, routing, escalation) so teams know how to work together without side-channeling.   3) Cross‑Functional Program Delivery with Clarity and Governance Own the governance layer for cross-org programs: program charters, RACI, decision logs, escalation routes, and “definition of done” criteria. Ensure partner dependencies and obligations (audit, compliance, PIR handoffs, etc.) are executed through defined constructs—not ad‑hoc heroics.   4) Incident‑Pace Interface Clarity (Especially for Executive + Crisis Moments) Ensure the right roles engage at the right time (e.g., Incident Coordinator vs. dCISO vs. CISO vs. business leaders) and that escalation paths remain unambiguous. Reduce friction by clarifying comms lanes and decision ownership during incidents (including executive communication expectations and “who speaks for whom”).   5) Continuous Improvement of Handoffs, Procedures, and “Seams” Own improvements to the core procedures governing handoffs and interaction points between CDO and partner teams (including engagement “rolodex” patterns). Use partner feedback and retrospectives to systematically reduce recurring confusion, delays, and duplicated effort.   6) Executive Readouts & Decision Support Translate complex operational realities into clear executive decision points, tradeoffs, and recommendations. Provide crisp, cross‑org narratives on what is working, where ownership is breaking down, and what must change to reduce risk and accelerate outcome s.
