Full Job Description

Overview

Microsoft is a highly innovative company that collaborates across disciplines to produce cutting-edge cloud technology that changes the world. The Cloud Server Infrastructure team within Microsoft Azure builds and operates the hardware and software foundation powering Microsoft’s global cloud services. The platform spans massive scale across global datacenters, requiring continuous innovation in reliability, efficiency, performance, automation, and serviceability.

The team partners across hardware, firmware, software, and operations to improve cloud infrastucture availability and enable next-generation systems. Microsoft also contributes to industry efforts such as Project Olympus and the Open Compute Project to accelerate open hardware innovation.

We are looking for a highly motivated Software Development Engineer to build and operate large-scale cloud infrastructure systems that power Azure. In this role, you will design and develop software that manages and monitors cloud hardware across hyperscale environments, driving improvements in reliability, availability, and performance.

You will work across the full stack—from low-level Linux-based device software to cloud-scale service orchestration—enabling intelligent decision-making on hardware health signals and improving overall cloud hardware availability and performance. This role provides an opportunity to influence next-generation datacenter architecture and contribute to industry ecosystems such as the Open Compute Project, aligning with Microsoft’s open hardware innovation strategy.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and maintain Linux-based service and device management stack using C, C++, Python, and systems programming languages.
Build and optimize distributed systems and cloud services for monitoring and managing hardware at hyperscale.
Implement hardware interface programming (SPI, I2C, GPIO, UART) and support board bring-up, firmware, and Linux boot flows including U-Boot and kernel integration.
Develop and enhance device telemetry, health monitoring, hardware health signal processing, and automated remediation workflows.
Drive live-site excellence through monitoring, debugging, root cause analysis, repair loops, and continuous service reliability improvements.
Collaborate with hardware, firmware, platform, and partner teams to deliver end-to-end solutions across hardware-software boundaries.
Translate customer and production feedback into feature enhancements, bug fixes, reliability improvements, and supportability investments.
Leverage and contribute to open-source ecosystems such as OCP and Linux where appropriate, bringing relevant best practices into Microsoft platforms.
Demonstrate end-to-end ownership for components and features, including design, implementation, validation, deployment, and production support.
Apply strong debugging and problem-solving skills in complex distributed, embedded, and hardware-software integrated environments.
Deliver secure, maintainable, and high-quality code with clear design documentation, unit/integration coverage, and operational readiness.
Participate actively in code reviews, design reviews, technical decision-making, and cross-team alignment.
Balance feature delivery with reliability, scalability, observability, performance, and long-term supportability.
Communicate clearly with peers, stakeholders, partner teams, and customers; convert ambiguity into actionable engineering plans.
