Overview
The Azure High Performance Computing & Artificial Intelligence HPC & AI Platform team builds the infrastructure that powers the world's most advanced AI and technical computing workloads. We define and deliver the hardware roadmap, software platform, and core services that enable customers to train frontier AI models, deploy large-scale inference systems, run complex scientific simulations, accelerate engineering innovation, and create immersive digital experiences.
Our platform serves many of Azure's most strategic customers, providing supercomputer-scale capabilities that push the boundaries of artificial intelligence and scientific discovery. The systems we build power some of the largest AI training environments on the planet, helping customers transform industries, accelerate breakthroughs, and solve problems that were previously impossible at cloud scale.
We are seeking a Principal Technical Program Manager to lead the strategy, execution, and delivery of customer-facing AI supercomputing programs. In this role, you will partner with leading AI organizations, engineering teams, and executive stakeholders across Microsoft to deliver hyperscale AI infrastructure that supports frontier model training and next-generation AI workloads. You will drive complex, cross-organizational programs spanning datacenter infrastructure, hardware platforms, networking, storage, software systems, reliability, and operations.
The successful candidate combines deep technical expertise in AI systems and large-scale distributed computing with exceptional leadership and execution skills. You will define long-term vision, align stakeholders across multiple organizations, influence executive decision-making, and lead through ambiguity to deliver business-critical outcomes. This role requires a proven track record of managing highly visible programs, translating customer needs into scalable platform capabilities, and driving results through broad influence rather than direct authority.
As a leader on the Azure HPC & AI Platform team, you will help shape the future of AI infrastructure and enable the training and deployment of the world's most advanced AI models. Your work will directly impact Microsoft's most strategic AI customers and contribute to defining the next generation of cloud-scale AI supercomputing.
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.
