Adoption Lead - Sales AI Transformation
Multiple Locations, Multiple Locations $169,750 Overview Microsoft Customer and Partner Solutions-Core (MCAPS) accelerates customer outcomes and business growth. By uniting product, engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, and partners aro Overview Microsoft Customer and Partner Solutions-Core (MCAPS) accelerates customer outcomes and business growth. By uniting product, engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, and partners around a common customer mission, we help customers realize value faster and turn innovation into measurable business impact. Through deep technical expertise and differentiated go-to-market execution, we win competitively, capture market share, and scale repeatable growth motions. We differentiate through value creation - delivering world-class, AI-powered customer experiences that accelerate adoption, strengthen loyalty, and create sustainable competitive advantage, driving growth that outpaces the market.   Services Sales is changing how it sells. New AI agents, tooling, processes, policies and go-to-market priorities are reaching sellers, managers, sales excellence and deal operations teams at a steady pace, and each one changes how deals are priced, built, recorded and closed. The value of those investments is only realized when the field actually works differently.    We are looking for an Adoption Lead to serve as the single accountable owner for adoption across the Services Sales Organization. Working from changes assessed and approved through the organizations change management process, you will translate organizational priorities and transformation initiatives into adoption strategies, turn a high volume of change into a small number of planned, field-ready landings, and be accountable for whether people adopt and sustain the new ways of working. You will orchestrate with the teams that build, approve and broadcast changes rather than duplicate them: product and engineering teams build, intake and governance teams approve, and established landing channels broadcast. You own the adoption journey that connects them.    This role sits at the center of the business. Success is measured not by what is launched, but by adoption, sustained behavior change and measurable business outcomes. The ideal candidate combines strong program management discipline with proven adoption and change practice, understands how change affects frontline roles, is comfortable with AI and sales technology, and has the credibility to lead across organizational boundaries without direct authority.    Candidates who live within 50 miles of Microsoft's Redmond campus will be required to work in the office 3 days per week.    Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.

Coach cross-functional teams to simplify processes, resolve root causes, and communicate program value in ways that build stakeholder buy-in. Adoption strategy and sponsorship  Lead the adoption strategy for Services Sales transformation priorities, defining the target behaviors and adoption outcomes for each approved change and the plan to achieve them. Influence sponsorship and build trusted partnerships with Director, GM and CVP leaders to hold the field accountable for adopting new ways of working. Equip leaders and managers to sponsor, model and reinforce adoption within their organizations. Partner with change intake and go/no-go owners to sequence approved changes into a predictable landing cadence that limits field fatigue and maximizes adoption. Align stakeholders across organizational boundaries on adoption accountabilities (RACI), resolving dependencies that block adoption.  Adoption readiness Build on impact assessments from change intake to define what each audience needs to know, understand and do differently, and the behaviors that signal adoption. Identify readiness gaps, adoption barriers and potential resistance, and plan how to address them before launch. Lead the identification of skilling and reskilling needs that adoption depends on, in partnership with enablement and HR. Set adoption-readiness criteria and feed them into go/no-go decisions, so changes reach the field with audiences, materials and support routes ready and security, privacy, compliance and responsible AI requirements met.  Adoption execution and reinforcement Orchestrate coordinated landing and reinforcement through field enablement, communications, landing channel owners and champions networks, working through their functions rather than duplicating them. Translate complex changes into role-specific, scenario-based guidance anchored in one authoritative destination for the field. Own adoption after launch, tracking usage by role and region and running targeted follow-up with lagging teams until new ways of working are sustained. Lead the definition and tracking of adoption metrics across awareness, readiness, usage, behavioral change and business impact. Use adoption data and field feedback to drive targeted interventions and reinforcement, ensuring every checkpoint produces a specific change in course, content or action.  Adoption insight and value Lead the adoption rhythm of business through existing forums, including a monthly adoption health readout to sponsors on usage, risks and decisions. Provide insight into value realization and recommend when to accelerate, adjust or retire a change. Establish a scalable, repeatable adoption playbook, capturing lessons learned and sharing best practices with peer programs. Bring field insight back into program and product prioritization so that what is built next reflects how the field works.   Qualifications Required Qualifications Bachelor's Degree in Business, Operations, Finance, or related field AND 6+ years experience in program management, process management, or process improvement OR equivalent experience. Preferred Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Business, Operations, Finance, or a related field AND 12+ years of experience in program management, process management, or process improvement OR Master's degree in Business, Operations, Finance, or a related field AND 8+ years of experience in program management, process management, or process improvement OR equivalent experience. Proven experience driving technology adoption and sustained behavior change across large, cross-functional organizations, using structured methodologies such as Prosci ADKAR; change management certification (Prosci or CCMP) a plus. Experience leading adoption of AI, automation or sales technology (for example Copilot, CRM, deal or pricing tools) in enterprise sales, customer success or other field-facing organizations. Working knowledge of professional services sales motions, deal processes and sales systems. Adoption analytics skills, including defining usage and behavior metrics and using dashboards (for example Power BI) to drive decisions. Demonstrated ability to influence senior leaders in a matrixed organization and translate complex change into clear, actionable guidance for diverse audiences.

Nov 13 Solution Architecture
Principal Value Creation Lead
Multiple Locations, Multiple Locations $178,100 Overview The Frontier Transformation Framework helps our customers become Frontier Firms: organizations where AI is not a tool added to the business but part of the operating system the business runs Overview The Frontier Transformation Framework helps our customers become Frontier Firms: organizations where AI is not a tool added to the business but part of the operating system the business runs on. The single biggest reason AI programs stall is not the technology; 95% of AI pilots fail to deliver meaningful P&L impact because they are deployed without a value hypothesis, measure the wrong things, or never baseline before building. Value Creation and Management is the discipline that closes that gap, turning AI from a cost center with unclear returns into a tracked investment with board-level visibility. The Frontier Transformation team is how the Microsoft Frontier Company, the organization this role sits within, delivers this: a small, 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 Principal Value Creation Lead  to define, design, and prove the business value of AI and agentic investment across strategic customer engagements. In this role, you will own the Value Realization Framework end to end: surfacing where AI investment aligns with a customer's strategic objectives, building the value hypotheses and investment cases that unlock funding, declaring the measurement approach before anything is built, and proving realized outcomes against baselines once solutions are live. You will operate at the intersection of finance, business strategy, engineering, and field delivery, working directly with CFOs, executive sponsors, account teams, Industry Business Architects, and delivery pods. This is a role for people who are equally comfortable in a CFO-led value workshop and in the detail of a P&L model, who can move from strategic ambition to a defensible financial figure, and who are energized by making value real rather than anecdotal. You will help customers see, fund, and capture the value of becoming a Frontier Firm, while shaping the reusable value patterns, benchmarks, and playbooks that scale this discipline across industries. If you are excited by the opportunity to make AI investment measurable, fundable, and provable, this role is for you. Responsibilities Lead value discovery through the Value Realization Framework, running facilitated (often CFO-led) workshops that identify where AI and agent investment aligns with the customer's strategic business objectives. Build and own value hypotheses for each candidate use case, framed as a single testable statement and mapped to the four value themes: Enrich Employee Experience, Reinvent Customer Experience, Reshape Business Processes, and Bend the Innovation Curve. Produce value-ranked agent backlogs, prioritizing opportunities by business value, feasibility, and time-to-impact using the Value Rubric and Frontier Guide (Today-vs-Frontier benchmarks). Develop the Business Case that unlocks funding: a three-scenario financial model (Conservative, Expected, Optimistic) with ROI, time-to-break-even, sensitivity analysis, and an explicit cost of inaction. Design the Measurement Spine, decomposing the sponsor's Impact KPI into Value Driver KPIs, and defining Adoption Diagnostics (Reach and Depth) that explain why the numbers moved. Capture before-and-after baselines for every use case ahead of deployment, using quantitative snapshots, user surveys, and stakeholder interviews, so impact can be proven afterward. Build and run measurement instruments, including the Copilot Dashboard in Viva Insights and the per-engagement Pulse Dashboard (Power BI) that reads the Measurement Spine live. Produce the Agentic Business Impact Report, correlating AI and agent deployment to financial KPIs such as cycle time, cost-to-serve reduction, and throughput improvements tied to specific workflows. Own the P&L of every Frontier Loop, accounting for human labor, agents, tokens, licenses, and value leakage, and surfacing where projected value is or is not being realized. Assess Scale Readiness at the end of each engagement (Scale / Sustain / Pivot) and translate the final value assessment into a defensible financial figure that informs the scale decision. Develop reusable value patterns, rubrics, benchmarks, and playbooks that scale the Value Creation and Management discipline across industries and regions, and transfer the practice to the customer's own finance and value owners. Success in this role looks like Every AI and agent investment is anchored to a value hypothesis and a strategic KPI, with a clear baseline captured before anything is built. Sponsors secure funding because the Business Case is credible, transparent, and directly tied to the customer's strategic priorities. Customers move from concept to funded delivery to proven, board-visible P&L impact rather than anecdotal productivity gains.

The Se Overview The Region Expansion team within Microsoft’s Cloud Operations + Innovation (CO+I) organization is responsible for enabling Azure’s long‑term global and regional infrastructure growth. The Senior Program Manager, Global Expansion role is a senior individual contributor position focused on leading end‑to‑end workstreams within the Global Prepositioning Program. This role is critical to shifting Microsoft's cloud expansion to a governed, ahead‑of‑demand operating model that prepares land, power, permitting, network, and schedule readiness in advance of demand. As a Senior Program Manager, you will own and drive one or more complex prepositioning workstreams, operating with significant autonomy while partnering closely with acquisition teams, engineering, finance, planning, and regional program leadership. You will translate long‑range global expansion strategies into executable plans, integrate prepositioning milestones into regional Plans of Record (PORs) and schedules, surface risks and tradeoffs, and ensure leadership has clear visibility and decision‑ready insights. This role requires comfort with ambiguity, strong systems thinking, and the ability to generate clarity across a highly matrixed, global environment.  Responsibilities Strategic problem solving Lead strategic initiatives that answer the question "What option or decision should we take?" Take each one from problem framing through analysis, recommendation, leadership decision and regional implementation. Develop and run decision frameworks that help Microsoft make faster, consistent portfolio choices. For example, assessing land and expansion options with clear Yes / No / Conditional Yes recommendations. Build business cases and position papers on expansion trade-offs, such as when to invest ahead of demand, how to maintain long-range options, and how to balance schedule risk against carrying cost. Turn strategy changes into programs that reach across the portfolio. Coordinate Region Design, Networking and partner teams, and identify the highest-value expansion options each change opens up. Long-term expansion strategy Help set the standards and methods for geography and subregion expansion strategies, and the long-range plans of record that link Microsoft's expansion direction to near-term decisions. Work with regional expansion leaders so strategies are consistent, comparable and feed into capacity planning. Bring market, demand, supply and policy insight into new-region assessments and recommendations. Cross-functional leadership and influence Build alignment across real estate, region design, networking, engineering, finance, energy, legal and capacity planning partners. Do it through influence, not authority. Present clear, data-backed recommendations to senior leaders and executive forums. Spell out the trade-offs, what must be true, and the concessions each option requires. Bring problems to the surface early, especially where work is drifting from the strategy, and set out options before they become constraints. Data, tools and AI Work with partners to make expansion data authoritative, connected and ready for AI. Use the team's planning systems as the record for your initiatives. Look for ways AI can speed up analysis and decisions. Qualifications Required Qualifications: Bachelor's degree AND 4+ years of experience in engineering, product or technical program management, data analysis, or product development, OR equivalent experience. 2+ years of experience managing cross-functional and/or cross-team projects.

As a Principal Field Operations Construction Program Manager, you will help deliver the core Overview Microsoft Cloud Operations & Innovation (CO+I) is the engine that powers our cloud services. As a Principal Field Operations Construction Program Manager, you will help deliver the core infrastructure behind Microsoft's online services, including Bing, Office 365, Xbox, OneDrive, and Azure. Our infrastructure spans over 200 datacenters and 1 million servers, supporting more than 1 billion customers and 20 million businesses worldwide. With a focus on environmental sustainability, we continue to grow and evolve to meet changing business demands, maintaining Microsoft's position as a world-class cloud provider. Data Center Operations Construction (DCOC) delivers complex construction and retrofit programs inside live, operational datacenters. The work spans capacity additions, mechanical and electrical equipment replacement, end-of-life remediation, network and deployment enablement, and first-of-kind retrofits, all executed without interrupting the customer availability the sites exist to provide. The Principal Field Operations Construction Program Manager owns the Operations Construction portfolio across a group of assigned metros. Where metro program managers deliver the projects in front of them, this role decides what that portfolio contains: which work advances, which is deferred, which is stopped, and in what order, across metros competing for the same capital, outage windows, vendor capacity, and site operations bandwidth. Accountability sits with the health of the multi-metro portfolio as a whole rather than with any single project inside it. The role leads the program managers and contract construction and safety managers working across those metros, and is measured on their capability and consistency as much as on delivered projects. It carries the most complex work in its portfolio, including first-of-kind retrofits in live space where no established execution method exists, and converts that work into standards and practice the wider program adopts. Reporting to the Director of Operations Construction, this position represents DCOC to site leadership, engineering, commissioning, and enterprise customer programs.

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 Lead portfolio strategy and prioritization across assigned metros, translating capacity, availability, sustainability, and business objectives into executable construction plans while balancing capital, resources, outage windows, vendor capacity, and operational constraints. Own portfolio delivery and governance across safety, scope, schedule, budget, commercial performance, and risk, including forecasting, change management, project controls, commissioning readiness, operational turnover, and closeout. Exercise independent judgment on complex, high-impact programs, assessing project viability, investment trade-offs, emerging risks, and delivery confidence, and personally leading the most complex, first-of-kind, or highest-risk initiatives when warranted. Lead and develop program capability across the portfolio, providing direction, coaching, and technical leadership to program managers and contract construction and safety teams while building workforce capacity, bench strength, and consistent execution practices. Develop and scale construction standards and program practices, establishing execution methods for first-of-kind work and translating lessons learned, root cause findings, project controls, and performance data into repeatable standards and playbooks adopted across metros and regions. Influence senior stakeholders and delivery partners across site operations, engineering, commissioning, supply chain, security, legal, and enterprise programs, presenting portfolio performance, investment needs, forecasts, and risk in terms that enable clear business decisions and resolve competing priorities. Model and champion a safety-first, accountable culture while embodying Microsoft’s culture and values, holding internal teams and external partners to high standards for safety, security, availability, operational excellence, and responsible delivery.

By uniting product, engineering, marketing, sales, customer success, and partners around a common customer mission, we help customers realize value faster and turn innovation into measurable business impact. Through deep technical expertise and differentiated go-to-market execution, we win competitively, capture market share, and scale repeatable growth motions. We differentiate through value creation - delivering world-class, AI-powered customer experiences that accelerate adoption, strengthen loyalty, and create sustainable competitive advantage, driving growth that outpaces the market.    Within MCAPS-Core, Cloud + AI Platforms (CAIP) is one of the most strategic businesses worldwide at Microsoft. Given the tremendous momentum in customer pursuit of Digital Transformation, there’s never been a more exciting & compelling time to be a part of the Cloud + AI Platform business at Microsoft!  And within CAIP, the WW Technical Success operates as the bridge between product direction, sales strategy, and scalable delivery execution. It plays a pivotal role in enabling the field, building scale through the Field and Factory, development of reusable intellectual property (IP) and assets, managing field technical escalations and product blockers, influencing product direction, and engaging in high-priority customer engagements. We are looking to hire a Senior Cloud Solution Architect – App & Data Modernization to help industrialize the path to AI-ready workloads. Modernization is the prerequisite for AI value: legacy applications and the data coupled to them block AI-native experiences, and our team’s mission is to modernize the app and its data together — as one wave, one cutover, one outcome. You will design and build high-quality, repeatable intellectual property (IP) — frequently including code — for broad use by Microsoft delivery teams and partners, and you will build the content and skilling that enables the field to adopt agentic modernization tools at scale.  You will bring depth in application modernization (moving .NET or Java workloads to Azure containerization and PaaS — App Service, Azure Container Apps, AKS, Functions, and API Management) and/or database migration and modernization (SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, Cassandra, and MongoDB to Azure SQL, Flexible Servers, and Cosmos DB) — ideally both. You do not need to be a full-time developer, but you will be comfortable operating in a developer-centric team: working in modern developer tools and environments, contributing to a code-based IP portfolio, and reasoning through assess → upgrade → remediate → containerize → deploy workflows. Working with agentic tooling — GitHub Copilot’s app-modernization capabilities, Azure Migrate, and the Azure Copilot Migration Agent — you will help shape an industrialized, agent-native approach to modernization, always under human control.  This is a high-impact opportunity to lead innovation at scale and empower customers to unlock the full value of their Cloud and AI investments.

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 Develop strategy to solve critical CAIP App & Data Modernization priorities across Cloud + AI customers — modernizing applications and their data together with focus on SQL Databases.  Design and build high-quality, repeatable IP offerings — frequently including code — that can be delivered by Microsoft teams and partners, built agent-native using modern developer tools, environments, and build systems.  Bring hands-on depth in application modernization and SQL database migration and modernization.  Build the content and skilling that enables field CSAs, delivery teams, and partners to adopt agentic modernization tools at scale.  Design and build automation and solutions for delivery efficiency, and help close the gap from migration to true, agentic modernization.  Build trusted relationships with stakeholders across MCAPS-Core, Engineering and with business leaders to shape cloud and AI modernization strategy, acting as a technical advisor and champion for long-term success.  Unblock and accelerate customers’ modernization efforts — architect solutions for customers and help resolve blockers and escalations.  Deliver new offerings with direct customer engagement before scaling them out to the field through internal and partner delivery engines.  Be the Voice of the Customer; share insights and best practices, and partner with Engineering teams to remove blockers and influence Microsoft’s product roadmap.  Inspire AI adoption by sharing best practices, leading with Microsoft’s AI story, and helping customers innovate with confidence at scale.  Maintain technical skills and knowledge of market trends and competitive insights; collaborate and share with the technical community.
