Microsoft | Boulder, CO | Senior Software Engineer | ONSITE (can frequently work from home) | Full Time
Microsoft is looking for a Senior Software Engineer in Boulder, CO for its Commercial Software Engineering (CSE) team.
This is a role where you will work with a wide range of technologies and languages, developing cloud solutions side-by-side with software engineers outside of Microsoft. We are looking for a senior engineer who has a strong background in cloud architecture, a history of mentoring junior engineers, and strong software engineering skills. The role does involve traveling to customer locations roughly twice every three months (flying in on a Monday and out on a Friday) - all travel is planned well in advance.
This isn't a consulting role - there are no billable hours, we work side-by-side with external engineers building projects with them, not for them. Project schedules are determined collectively by both parties and we ensure we don't burn engineers out (work-life balance is a high priority). This role doesn't involve any on-call responsibilities during or after a customer project.
Hi! On-site is a hard requirement? Spending 2 weeks per quarter at client site, plus work from home... seems like it is already a fairly remote-friendly position.
I also because I've had a few great conversations with MS over the past 20 years or so, but never been able to make geography work.
Anything on the product side for this by chance? Did sales/solution engineering before but working in a product role in what you described sounds so much fun.
I don't believe there is a role like this in the product teams at Microsoft anymore.
There are groups within Commercial Software Engineering who are technology-aligned and work within a specific domain (ex: Kubernetes or Machine Learning), but that may not be what you are looking for. I did a quick search on the Microsoft Careers page and didn't see any openings in those groups.
