Full-timeDesign, Art/Creative +1
AI is transforming the world - and design is evolving with it. At Microsoft, we’re not just designing for the future - we’re designing with it. As Microsoft continues to push the boundaries of AI, we are on the lookout for passionate individuals to work with us on the most interesting and challenging AI questions of our time. This is your opportunity to help shape a new era of human-computer interaction - where design and intelligence move in harmony, and designers and AI collaborate as creative partners.

We’re inviting the next generation of creative thinkers and doers to help shape how people work, learn, communicate, and create - with AI not as a tool, but as a teammate. We’re looking for a Product Designer II to join us in Microsoft 365 Copilot team - someone who thinks beyond screens and pixels, sees interfaces as intelligent systems, workflows as conversations, and products as living, learning collaborators. As both a designer and a builder, you already embrace GenAI and agents to amplify your capabilities and unlock new potential. If you thrive in ambiguity, love exploring the unknown, and want to define design in the age of intelligence, we’d love to work with you.

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.
