Do you want to be at the forefront of innovating the latest hardware designs to propel Microsoft’s cloud growth? Are you seeking a unique career opportunity that combines both technical capabilities, cross team collaboration, with business insight and strategy?
Join our Strategic Planning and Architecture (SPARC) team within Microsoft’s Azure Hardware Systems & Infrastructure (AHSI) organization and be a part of the organization behind Microsoft’s expanding Cloud Infrastructure and responsible for powering Microsoft’s “Intelligent Cloud” mission.
Microsoft delivers more than 200 online services to more than one billion individuals worldwide and AHSI is the team behind our expanding cloud infrastructure. We deliver the core infrastructure and foundational technologies for Microsoft's cloud businesses including Microsoft Azure, Bing, MSN, Office 365, OneDrive, Skype, Teams and Xbox Live.
The SPARC organization manages Azure’s hardware roadmap from architecture concept through production for all of Microsoft’s current and future on-line services. Well-defined and executed strategic planning ensures products meet the requirements for performance, features, and time-to-market. The ability to draw insights from a deep understanding of the cloud HW Infrastructure landscape and industry trends is critical in informing the roadmap and planning decisions. Deep technical understanding of our hardware architecture, workload modeling and analysis are necessary to making informed, data-driven decisions. Our hardware technology pathfinding work helps keep our product portfolio competitive by maturing new concepts for productization. Together, these functions create a strategic hardware and technology roadmap.
To fulfill our mission, SPARC technology planning and pathfinding team is seeking a highly motivated Senior Electrical Hardware Engineer for the development of complex servers and infrastructure with a concentration on advanced high-performance systems utilizing advanced power delivery solution technologies. The candidate will collaborate closely with Microsoft product groups, industry partners and researchers to develop systems concepts that will meet the requirements for Microsoft cloud services platforms at the lowest possible Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). The candidate will be responsible for evaluating technology and conceptualizing potential prototypes. The Senior Electrical Hardware Engineer will collaborate internally and externally to supply on-paper analysis and prototyping of the most promising concepts to be matured into production.
