Overview
We are looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join the Ads Engineering team and help advance the core capabilities of our Ads serving stack. This system powers advertisements across a range of Microsoft services, including Bing Search, MSN, Start.com, and shopping experiences in the Edge browser. Our serving stack is a high-scale, low-latency, geo-distributed system with numerous components—including large-scale machine learning inference for ad ranking, real-time bidding infrastructure, and other subsystems supporting diverse ad scenarios.
This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the innovation and evolution of a system operating at an exceptional scale and speed. You’ll face a wide variety of technical challenges: from designing new features and optimizing performance down to the millisecond, to building scalable infrastructure for containerized services. You’ll work alongside a passionate, world-class engineering team, own major feature areas, and collaborate globally. If you thrive on solving complex technical problems in a dynamic environment, this is the opportunity for 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.
