Software Engineer II

Online Advertising is one of the fastest growing businesses on the Internet today, with about $70 billion of a $600 billion advertising market already online. Search engines, web publishers, major ad networks, and ad exchanges are now serving billions of ad impressions per day and generating terabytes of user events data every day. The rapid growth of online advertising has created enormous opportunities as well as technical challenges that demand computationally intelligence and scalable algorithms. Eventually Computational Advertising has emerged as a new interdisciplinary field that involves information retrieval, data mining, machine learning, statistical modeling, optimization, linear algebra, and micro-economics, to solve challenging problems that arise in online advertising.

Delivery Engine is at the core of this effort, working on large distributed systems with low latency and high throughput. Today, we design, develop, and operate a global ads marketplace that has a double-digit annual growth rate. This is a self-motivated and results driven environment that will unleash your potential. As a Software Engineer II of this team, you would help us build highly scalable, highly performant services which host state of the art machine learning models. Your work will touch many components of our stack

We need candidates who have shipped products or worked on large scale online services and have 4 or more years of relevant software development experience. This is a rare opportunity to influence technology development in an important growth area at Microsoft. You will design, implement, analyze and tune complex algorithms operating on large datasets in collaboration with top scientists and engineers across Microsoft's global R&D team.

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.
