Overview
Microsoft Azure operates one of the largest Internet Protocol (IP) networks in the world, connecting millions of servers across hundreds of data centers to customers globally.
This infrastructure supports a wide range of services and requires robust security measures to ensure reliability and trust.
The Azure Networking Security team plays a critical role in safeguarding the routers and switches that form the backbone of this network.
The team includes software engineers and network engineers who are responsible for automating and deploying security-related changes across network devices within Azure Networking.
As a Senior Software Engineer in Azure Networking, you will play a pivotal role in developing solutions that directly supports Microsoft's mission-critical infrastructure by enhancing the reliability, integrity, and security posture of Azure's global network.
Engineers collaborate across multiple domains to deliver impactful solutions that protect Azure's backbone and enable secure cloud operations at scale.
Microsoft's mission is to empower every person and every organisation on the planet to achieve more.
As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realise 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.
