Principal Technical Program Manager

The Azure HPC & AI Infrastructure team defines and delivers the systems that power some of the world’s largest AI training and inference workloads. As Microsoft continues to expand the scale and sophistication of its AI infrastructure, networking is a key defining technology determining system performance, reliability, efficiency, and speed of deployment.

We are seeking a Principal Technical Lead for AI Infrastructure Networking to provide technical leadership for the networking architectures that connect GPU and accelerated computing infrastructure. This role will help deliver the next generation of networking capabilities behind Microsoft’s AI infrastructure, spanning technologies including InfiniBand, RDMA, high-performance Ethernet, network interface devices, switches, optics, and emerging AI interconnect architectures.

This is a highly cross-functional technical leadership role operating at the intersection of AI systems architecture, networking, GPU platforms, datacenter infrastructure, software, operations, and silicon and networking suppliers. The successful candidate will define technical strategy, shape architecture and roadmap decisions, and drive complex infrastructure programs from early technology evaluation through qualification, deployment, and operation at hyperscale.
