Microsoft Teams is the hub for teamwork that integrates all the people, content, and tools your team needs to be more engaged and effective. It is core to Microsoft’s modern work, modern life & modern education value prop. We are reinventing the way people communicate and work together across the globe. We own the infrastructure that enables complex orchestration of Copilot workflows to put powerful artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities at the user’s fingertips.
AI is now going through a transformational change with the advent for Large Language models (LLMs). We are seeking a Principal Applied Scientist with experience in working with LLMs who has designed scalable systems using LLMs. As a Principal Applied Scientist, you will design and build systems that allow LLMs to reason over large amounts of data as well as leveraging lighter weight models in place for specific scenarios. We are looking for an individual who has the capability of working with research teams and partnering with them to deliver joint solutions. This can range from working together to build fine-tuned models to coming up with ways to build custom LLMs for specific product needs.
We are excited to hear from candidates who are passionate about making an impact on how people interact with their computers and who are eager about the opportunity to be at the forefront of growing new business for Microsoft. This is a rare chance to be part of cutting-edge technology that is poised to revolutionize productivity and innovation.
Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.
