The Devices and Drivers team oversees the Windows PnP device and driver platform, working closely with OS and device technology teams (graphics, audio, network, storage, input, etc) and external hardware vendors and PC manufacturers to drive innovation across the Windows hardware ecosystem and make devices work seamlessly on PCs, servers, Azure, and other consumer and enterprise systems. As a member of the team, you will have the opportunity to work with highly motivated experts across Windows, Microsoft, and the hardware industry to build products and features that showcase the best of Windows and Microsoft technologies.

In Core OS, we are responsible for the Operating Systems that power Azure, Microsoft's Linux OS, the platforms for Windows Client and Xbox, and our Windows Server ecosystem – through all of these, we support every one of our cloud businesses and billions of customers around the world. In this era of ubiquitous computing, systems software excellence has never been more important for Microsoft. High quality, high-efficiency operating systems and platform components underpin everything we do as a company, from making our systems more reliable for our customers, to increasing our competitiveness by reducing COGS, to delivering new features and capabilities to delight customers – that’s all us!  

To deliver on our vision for a secure, reliable, and versatile hardware platform that blurs the line between hardware and software, we are looking for a Software Engineer II with  problem solving, design, coding, and debugging skills combined with a drive for learning, execution, and customer results. You should have a desire to understand complex systems and produce high quality code that runs on millions of machines every time a driver is deployed, a device is installed, a system is booted, and a new device or peripheral is connected. This is an awesome  opportunity to challenge yourself and be part of one of the core Windows platform teams that influences the next generation of hardware for Microsoft and the greater PC ecosystem.

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.
