Are you excited by the prospect of building identity and cybersecurity services at cloud scale? Microsoft operates thousands of internal Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) tenants that enable our workforce to develop, monitor, and test Microsoft’s software and services. Security of the identity plane that underpins the Microsoft Cloud is a key pillar of our Secure Futures Initiative. The Identity and Access Management Protect (IAM Protect) team builds, secures, and manages these tenants. We develop solutions to fully automate tenant creation, configuration, security, and inventory.

We are seeking a Principal Software Engineer to help architect and design the tools and solutions that enable us to build and manage large volumes of highly secure Entra ID tenants. This role will draw deeply upon your expertise in Entra and Azure technologies, your ability to design for scale, and your enthusiasm to mentor and share your knowledge within and across teams. In this role, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of security at Microsoft and leveraging your insights to protect Microsoft services and customers, while guiding a group of skilled security software engineers.
