As a, you will define and drive the architecture of the core systems behind this platform—spanning real-time decision services, streaming pipelines, and ML inference integration. You will also help lay the foundation for emerging AI-enabled enforcement flows, including agentic workflows that reason, adapt, and take multi-step actions using large language models and learned policies.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 6+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python
    • OR equivalent experience.
  • 6+ years of experience in backend or distributed systems engineering, with a proven record of system-level architectural leadership.
  • Advanced proficiency in C++, C# or equivalent systems languages.
  • Deep experience designing and scaling streaming or real-time systems (e.g., Kafka, Flink, Beam).
  • Solid command of performance profiling, load testing, capacity planning, and operational rigor.
  • Comfort designing systems for high QPS, low latency, and regulatory traceability.
  • Familiarity with ML inference orchestration, model deployment workflows, or online feature pipelines.


Ability to meet Microsoft, customer and/or government security screening requirements are required for this role. These requirements include but are not limited to the following specialized security screenings:

  • Microsoft Cloud Background Check: This position will be required to pass the Microsoft Cloud background check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science
    • OR related technical field AND 10+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python
    • OR Master's Degree in Computer Science or related technical field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience with coding in languages including, but not limited to, C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, or Python
    • OR equivalent experience.
  • 10+ years of experience in backend or distributed systems engineering, with a proven record of system-level architectural leadership.
  • Understanding of LLM integration, RAG, or agentic task flows, even at an architectural/infra layer.
  • Experience building systems that support human-in-the-loop moderation, policy evolution, or adaptive enforcement logic.
    Experience building efficient, scalable ML inference platforms.

Responsibilities
  • Design and evolve large-scale, low-latency distributed systems that evaluate ads, content, and signals in milliseconds across global workloads.
  • Lead architectural efforts across stream processing pipelines, real-time scoring services, policy engines, and ML integration points.
  • Define system-level strategies for scalability, performance optimization, observability, and failover resilience.
  • Partner with ML engineers and applied scientists to integrate models into production with cost-efficiency, modularity, and runtime predictability.
  • Guide technical direction for next-generation capabilities, including the early architecture of agentic/LLM-powered policy orchestration flows.
  • Influence platform-wide standards, review designs across teams, and mentor senior engineers through deep technical leadership.
