Azure App Service App Service is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) offering and one of the top services in Azure all-up (with most paying customers of any Azure compute service). The service powers Web Apps, Mobile Apps, API Apps, Logic Apps, Azure Static Web Apps, and Functions, a hot offering for the serverless world. Azure Functions Azure Functions is an open source project at the heart of Azure's serverless platform and is the next generation of cloud compute. It runs in more than 50 regions and handles billions of daily invocations of customer code written in a variety of languages including JavaScript, Python, C#/F#, Java and PowerShell. Azure API Management APIs are the foundation of our connected, digital world. Azure API Management enables companies building APIs to publish, describe, secure, manage and monitor their APIs so that they can focus on providing the functionality their developers want, while we provide them the infrastructure they need. Azure Logic Apps Azure Logic Apps is a cloud service and platform for automating enterprise business process workflows and integrating services, systems, apps, and data across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments with little or no code. Responsibilities We are looking for multiple engineers who are passionate about building new products while also managing a globally distributed service. An ideal candidate who can produce high quality solutions independently but will contribute to and benefit from a collaborative and diverse team environment both locally and across geo. A candidate who can wear many hats, learn quickly and change direction when needed. A candidate who can use appropriate artificial intelligence (AI) tools and practices across the software development lifecycle in a disciplined manner. In this role you will help to build and deliver the next set of services, features and developer tools that will define how applications are developed and hosted on Azure. You'll be working on both open source and platform components written in a variety of programming languages. This is a unique opportunity to work on large scale distributed systems and implement initiatives that are key to Microsoft's cloud strategy. In CoreAI Cloud Foundation team, you own features from the design phase through implementation to production. As part of this ownership, you are expected to help support your features by actively participating in an on-call rotation (DRI), which includes creating/updating SOPs, Troubleshooting Guides, monitoring systems, mitigating/restoring incidents, and deep-dive analysis of root causes of outages. This position is collaborative - requires working with many partner teams, learning and understanding how to use their technology.
