  • Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements is required pre-offer and post-hire.

Responsibilities

  • Use appropriate AI tools and practices across the software development lifecycle in a disciplined manner.
  • Support efforts to use debugging, tests, tools, logs, telemetry, and other methods to proactively verify assumptions before issues occur.
  • Review product feature code and test code to ensure it meets team standards and contains the correct test coverage.
  • Create and implement code for a product, service, or feature, reusing code as applicable.
