Description

The Commerce Platform team is looking for a principal developer to work on one of Microsoft’s largest scale, most business critical cloud services. These services process nearly 150M transactions daily with load growing linearly as Microsoft moves to a fully cloud-powered services and devices company. The Commerce Platform powers all of Microsoft’s key businesses: Windows Store, Microsoft Store, XBOX, Office 365, Azure, Windows Phone, and Dynamics to name just a few. If you purchase a Windows 8 app, aggregate XBOX points, register a windows phone, buy a Surface, or purchase Office for personal or business use then you are using the commerce platform. If you are interested in developing an online cloud platform which can meet the SCALE, RELIABILITY, and AVAILABILTY demands of somewhere between 500M-1B users while maintaining the SECURITY required for this type of data, than this opportunity may be right for you. We are staffing a team responsible for modernizing the subscriptions service, which manages the billing, dunning, incremental revenue recognition, entitlements, and promotions, for recurring, subscription-based software. Our users include Xbox Live Gold, Office 365, Bing Ads, Windows Store, Windows Phone, and Azure Hosted Services. In this role you will ensure the quality of recurring billing features, improve the accuracy and robustness of system monitoring, and streamline the process from check-in to deployment in production. You will modernize our invoicing and revenue processing pipelines to ensure timely and accurate reporting to our financial systems. You will be able to suggest and make improvements to the code based on live data. You will work on a team that is fully committed to test in production and continuous deployment. As live site health is critical to our business you will actively participate in helping meet our availability, reliability and latency requirements. There is no better opportunity to experience the world of cloud-based on-line services. Successful candidates are expected to have: • Exceptional problem solving skills • Relentlessly high standards (never satisfied with the status quo) • Action oriented • Excellent verbal and written communication skills • Ability to handle multiple competing priorities in a fast-paced environment Qualifications include: • 10+ years software development experience shipping customer-facing products or online services
• Experience and skills in operating cloud-based distributed systems • Excellent C++, C# or Java coding skills, with a degree in Computer Science or mathematics • Ability to understand unfamiliar code bases, and debug server-side, multi-threaded, and highly scalable applications • Strong Database Skills • Familiarity with Commerce is a plus
