We are Microsoft Search in Bing and, as a team, we have a foot in both the consumer and enterprise worlds. This unique space challenges us to innovate and find new ways to meet the expectations of consumers, while respecting the compliance needs of enterprise. Together, we build engaging and modern experiences for information workers using industry-standard tech, mostly TypeScript, and React and Redux for rendering. While primarily client-focused today, we will soon be expanding to server and native rendering. What is so exciting is that our framework is highly modular, with components used and applied in applications across Microsoft 365, interfacing with REST APIs from our unified search backend, and the Microsoft Graph. To help us achieve our goals and partner with stakeholders in design, research, PM, and data science to influence the future of search in the enterprise, we seek an experienced frontend developer.

As a software engineer on our team, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with teams across Microsoft and the world to develop rich, AI-powered result cards and whole-page experiences, experimenting with new paradigms for search results. In the big picture, you will contribute to components integrated in applications across Windows and the Microsoft365 ecosystem, including SharePoint, Word, Outlook, and across desktop and mobile form factors. If you are passionate about responsible development and building components that are accessible and sensitive to the needs of all users, we would love to consider your application for this role!
