At Microsoft, we believe in the transformational power of design: Innovation only happens when we make things simple and fluid, and the UX disappears behind the achievements of our customers. That’s where you come in. We’re looking for a designer who’s driven by empathy for customers, and the need to know how to serve them better. And we need you right now, because we’re building some of the fastest-growing, highest-impact technologies in the world today. 

The Azure design team is looking for a design superfan that can help craft the future of our Azure Container Registry offerings. We’re seeking a motivated creative interaction designer who lives to understand customers, create beautifully clear experiences, and explore the limitless potential of the cloud. You bring your skills to your fellow design collaborators with optimism, a retractable ego, and an open mind. 

In our team, we believe in the power of inclusion, diversity of ideas, skills, backgrounds, work / life balance, and the joy of solving challenging problems.  We help large enterprises use Azure however and wherever they need it: in the cloud, on the edge, all at huge scale. We strive for a collaborative culture where everyone can flourish and innovate, including in our own approaches to the ever-changing global climate. 

Join us, and you’ll be a part of a dedicated community of UX professionals working on Microsoft Azure.  We are working toward the vision of Azure as the World’s Computer, and we need your help.
