Builds workplace software, PCs and cloud services
The Microsoft 365 Intelligent Conversation and Communications Cloud (IC3) powers billions of real-time interactions across Copilot experiences, Microsoft Teams, Dynamics, and solutions built on Azure Communication Services. Operating across 25+ global regions, our messaging platform processes billions of messages daily and supports hundreds of millions of users, including 400M+ monthly active users across Copilot and Teams products. In IC3, we’re building Copilot and Teams messaging capabilities that turn conversations, meetings, and everyday interactions into shared understanding, lasting knowledge, and action. Join us to shape how agents participate in collaboration and help teams carry work forward.
We are building the next generation of messaging infrastructure at the intersection of distributed systems and AI.
Our mission is to evolve messaging beyond communication into a foundational AI capability, providing the real-time conversational context and memory that enable Copilot and intelligent agents to deliver richer, grounded, multi-turn experiences.
This creates unique engineering challenges: building globally distributed systems with high throughput and low latency while meeting demanding requirements for reliability, security, privacy, compliance, data sovereignty, and cost efficiency.
If you are excited about large-scale distributed systems, real-time data, and building infrastructure for AI-powered experiences, this is an opportunity to have impact across some of Microsoft's most important products.
As a Software Engineer on the IC3 Messaging team, you will:
Shape human agent collaboration: Work on Copilot and Teams messaging experiences that turn conversations, meetings, and shared work into understanding, decisions, and action.
Build infrastructure for AI-powered experiences, enabling conversational context to support grounding, retrieval, and intelligent experiences.
Help evolve how the team builds with AI, championing agentic development practices and sharing repeatable patterns that improve engineering velocity and quality, as well as training and evolving AI to assist with non-coding scenarios such as site reliability engineering, support and administration.
Move fast and deliver continuously with the highest quality.
Design for trust: Embed privacy, permissions, governance, and safe disclosure into human agent interactions.
Design, build, and operate distributed services at scale, focusing on performance, reliability, security, and efficiency.
Own features end to end, from design and implementation through testing, deployment, telemetry, and production operations.
Make engineering decisions using data and telemetry, balancing scalability, reliability, performance, maintainability, and cost.
Operate what you build, participating as a DRI to diagnose issues, restore service health, and improve reliability based on production learnings.
Collaborate with engineers and partner teams across Microsoft to deliver cohesive end-to-end capabilities.
Take increasing ownership of ambiguous technical problems and contribute to the evolution of our platform and architecture.
