Software Engineer II

The Microsoft M365 Enterprise Copilot was launched two years ago to address the fundamental shift in how people work, build their career, and find meaning in their workplace. Employee engagement is in flux during times of economic, demographic, societal and AI changes. People want to be excited about their work, be connected to their company culture, understand how to be more productive, succeed and feel supported in their careers.

Employee Self Service(ESS) Agent (part of M365 Copilot 1P Agents) preview was announced as part of Microsoft Ignite 2024 Conference keynote by Satya followed by a deeper capability presentation by Rajesh Jha and Charles Lamanna. ESS Agent will automate some of the core functions like HR, ITHD, Facilities etc for our Enterprise customers, significantly reducing their cost while delighting their employees with much richer and engaging experiences.

ESS Agent team is hiring a Software Engineer II to expand our ecosystems of ISV connectors to deliver next level of cross platform AI scenarios.

Our team has a keen sense of accountability and provides its members with opportunities for learning and career growth through a sense of ownership.

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
