Description For Software Engineer II - CTJ - Poly

Microsoft's High Performance Computing (HPC) team is seeking a Software Engineer II to help build hyperscale solutions for managing and scaling infrastructure across multiple clouds, both public and government-owned. This role offers a unique opportunity to support both national security missions and Azure public cloud demands.

As a Software Engineer II, you'll be responsible for developing automated capacity management solutions that work across multiple clouds. The position involves full-stack engineering with an emphasis on backend development, supporting various types of capacity from AI to supercomputing. Your code will run on millions of machines, forming the backbone of cloud operations.

The role offers a hybrid work environment with the flexibility to work partially from home, with some on-site work required for government cloud operations. You'll be working with cutting-edge technology while contributing to critical national security infrastructure.

Key aspects of the role include:

  • Building and maintaining large-scale distributed services
  • Developing automation solutions for cloud capacity management
  • Working with specialized hardware and infrastructure
  • Supporting both public and government cloud environments
  • Implementing security-focused solutions for classified environments

The position requires an active Top Secret clearance with SCI access and offers competitive compensation ranging from $100,600 to $199,000 per year (higher in SF and NYC areas). You'll be part of Microsoft's inclusive culture that emphasizes growth mindset, innovation, and collaboration.

Benefits include comprehensive healthcare, educational resources, investment options, parental leave, and generous time off. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to work on challenging technical problems at scale while contributing to both commercial and government cloud infrastructure.
