Software Engineer

Are you passionate about defining the future of personal computing? Do you have the passion and experience to build and lead a new engineering team to deliver a new set of cloud experiences that will expand the reach of Windows? 
 
The newly formed Windows Incubation team is chartered to build a new direction for Windows in a cloud first world. It starts with working back from the emerging needs of cloud information workers that need a fast, secure, and always connected experience to stay productive. We will create a new Windows experience that combines the speed and ease of use of the Web with the power of Windows 365 for more compute resources on demand. Our work will lead the next wave of cloud innovation for Windows, from defining a new hybrid app model that can scale from local to cloud compute, to building a Web-based shell with direct integration with Windows 365. The building blocks we create will chart a new direction for the experience and business model of Windows – from low-cost PCs powered through advertising and subscriptions, to new direct-to-cloud hardware devices across work and life.  
 

Our team is looking for an exceptional Software Developer to join a team to create a new Web-based Shell and interaction model to power this vision. You will work on the latest innovations in modern Web programming, cloud computing, and open source to take new experiences from prototyping to production. You will partner with Product Management and Design to ideate and create prototypes to validate early thinking and use on-going customer data and research to validate your ideas. You will work in a fast-paced startup environment, collaborating with the best engineers in the industry to work on hard engineering challenges, as we are building our team and product from the ground up.
