We take engineering-based approaches to solve production reliability problems. We are responsible for improving availability, latency, scalability, performance, and efficiency. We have interest in behaviour of distributed systems generally. We care deeply about software quality and how software is constructed and designed with a production-oriented focus on monitoring, release processes, safe deployments, performance optimization,  capacity management, crisis response, resiliency engineering and similar concerns beyond pure functionality which are relevant to improving reliability. 

Our team is built on trust and teamwork; we work in a start-up like environment toward shared goals and use an iterative approach to deliver value and stability to our customers.  Our “no dead-ends” philosophy ensures that every customer can realize their full potential through the Microsoft Cloud.  Customer obsession, Automation, Data Driven, Collaboration and Troubleshooting are few characteristics of our team. We are growing fast but remain agile. You will work with teams across Microsoft, established industry players, and customers. Our partners and customers are eager for our solutions and ready to bet big on Azure. You will have the opportunity to design and develop creative, compelling, and innovative systems that support our world-wide operations. You will develop software and services at scale, innovating on the latest technologies as the earliest adopters while mentoring other team members.
