Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, Washington, United States, 98052
Principal Software Engineer in Ai Driven Configuration & Experimentation Platform
ECS (Experiments and Configuration Service) is the backbone of Microsofts experimentation and configuration ecosystem, powering safe rollouts and controlled experimentation across M365, Copilot, and Azure. We are expanding beyond core experimentation into next-generation platforms for change inventory intelligence and AI-powered RCA agents, aiming to redefine how engineers troubleshoot, learn from incidents, and continuously improve service reliability. As a Principal Software Engineer in AI Driven Configuration & Experimentation Platform, you will lead the design and evolution of large-scale distributed systems that empower thousands of developers across Microsoft. Youll collaborate with partner teams, influence long-term strategy, and shape the architecture for high-reliability experimentation, change management, and AI-driven operational quality. This opportunity will allow you to: Drive company-wide impact by defining technical strategy and standards for experimentation, change inventory, and incident analysis; Partner with leaders across engineering and product to solve systemic challenges in safe rollouts, telemetry, and the automation of root cause analysis (RCA); Mentor engineers and raise the bar for engineering quality, design rigor, and AI-augmented developer experience. Microsofts mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
