Job Details
Microsoft CoreAI 's mission is to empower every developer to shape the future with Artifical Intelligence (AI) . CoreAI is developing a new AI-first app stack, aligning infrastructure, platforms, and tools to support this mission. By providing developers with the right tools and resources, we aim to enable both Microsoft and our customers to unlock the full potential of AI in their applications and business processes. We're hiring a Principal Software Engineer to join CoreAI.

As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals.

Connecting AI systems with the right knowledge is a central part of modern application and agent platforms . Over the last two years RAG has enabled grounding for many scenarios, but as the questions get more complex and data volumes grow, we need continued innovation to create systems that can handle the needs of future applications and agents.
The AI Knowledge team within Azure Foundry builds the knowledge understanding and retrieval systems for the Microsoft platform. We cover a wide spectrum of problem spaces, including internet-scale vector and hybrid search , state of the art transformer-based ranking models , unstructured content understanding and structure extraction, and more.
We're looking for experts in knowledge graphs, semantics, alternative representations, and adjacent topics, to join us in pushing the limit of performance for knowledge retrieval.
This is an exploration effort and we're looking for individuals that have extensive experience in the domain, have a demonstrated track record of being self-starters, are productive coders, understand the business backdrop in which technology exists, and are great team players.
