Microsoft Security aspires to make the world a safer place for all. We want to reshape security and empower every user, customer, and developer with a security cloud that protects them with end to end, simplified solutions.

We own services end‑to‑end—design, implementation, deployment, monitoring, and live‑site reliability—partnering closely with product and engineering teams to deliver secure, resilient, and observable experiences. Engineers on the team take ownership, contribute to technical design, and raise the engineering bar through quality, reviews, and operational excellence. If you’re passionate about large‑scale systems, reliability, and building services that protect customer data and trust, you’ll find this team meaningful and rewarding.
