Principal Software Engineer Lead

In Mixed Reality, people—not devices—are at the center of everything we do.

Our tech moves beyond screens and pixels, creating a new reality aimed at bringing us closer together—whether that’s scientists “meeting” on the surface of a virtual Mars or some yet undreamt-of possibility.

To get there, we’re incorporating groundbreaking technologies, from the revolutionary Holographic Processing Unit to computer vision, machine learning, human-computer interaction, and more.

We’re a growing team of talented engineers, program managers and artists putting technology on a human path across all Windows devices, including Microsoft HoloLens, the Internet of Things, phones, tablets, desktops, and Xbox.

Our team has people from a wide variety of backgrounds, identities, previous work histories, life experiences, and we are eager to maintain and grow that diversity.

Our varied backgrounds and unique experiences enable us to be better at building the best solutions for our customers and make for dynamic and joyful collaborations with colleagues!

If you are passionate about groundbreaking Mixed Reality technology and want to work on a team dedicated to a culture of inclusion, growth mindset and collaboration, we need you!

We are looking for a Principal Software Engineer to help build our next set of services and experiences for the Azure Mixed Reality Platform.

The ideal candidate is inclusive and wants to work alongside a team of engineers who have a wide range of skills and experiences to execute the project vision.

You are a person with domain knowledge and expertise in building clients and services across different platforms, have a passion for knowing the system from customer to backend.

You will build clients and services for Mixed Reality Services across all platforms, including PC, HoloLens, Android, and iOS, using our native technology stack and have an opportunity to collaborate with leading computer vision experts at Microsoft.

In addition, you should be passionate about designing and delivering high-quality code optimized for performance and ease of use.

Finally, you will participate in designing and developing critical components and services in the platform and growing your expertise in cross-platform development, distributed systems, and computer vision.
