Description For Cloud & AI Solution Engineer – Azure Platform

Microsoft is seeking a Cloud & AI Solution Engineer focused on the Azure Platform to drive technical sales and solution architecture for commercial customers. This role combines deep technical expertise with customer-facing responsibilities, helping organizations modernize their infrastructure and leverage the full potential of Microsoft's cloud services.

As a Solution Engineer, you'll work directly with technical and business stakeholders to design and implement secure, scalable, and resilient architectures that support AI workloads and business-critical applications. Your expertise in migrating core workloads—including Windows, SQL Server, Linux, PostgreSQL, and Oracle—to Azure will be crucial in guiding customers through their cloud journey.

The role requires hands-on experience with modern cloud technologies, particularly Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), containerization, and hybrid networking solutions. You'll lead technical workshops, create proofs of concept, and develop architecture accelerators to demonstrate value and enable successful deployments. With 25-50% travel expected, you'll have the opportunity to work closely with customers on-site.

Key responsibilities include driving technical sales through demonstrations and architectural guidance, leading solution design workshops, resolving technical blockers, and maintaining deep expertise in cloud migration strategies. You'll also work with enterprise applications like SAP and Azure VMware Solution (AVS) while representing Microsoft in technical communities.

Microsoft offers comprehensive benefits including industry-leading healthcare, educational resources, investment options, and generous parental leave. The company's mission to empower every person and organization on the planet creates an environment where you'll work with cutting-edge technologies while making a meaningful impact on customers' digital transformation journeys.
