If you are looking for the opportunity to build highly scalable services and rich data insights on Azure’s largest distributed platforms, then the Azure Data Governance team is the right place for you to come and take on your next challenge.

Our team is working on building new platform capabilities for Governance and Privacy Compliance across the Azure stack. For our customers to maintain control and compliance over their data, we are making a big bet on building platform features that enable compliant Asset Management, complete with Discovery, Classification, Data Lineage, Insights, and Privacy Operations that allow for better data-driven decisions to be made by the enterprises that stake their reputation on top of us. We need engineers who care deeply about our customers and want to build services in a way that empowers our customers, while ensuring compliance and privacy, to help build strong trust.

Responsibilities We are looking for engineering managers who have a track record of success, who deliver results, and who (preferably) have a background in large scale data processing systems. Everyone on the team owns significant areas of the system, directly contributes to the vision, direction, and implementation of new features, and are key to the success of our products. In addition to your manager role, you will collaborate on your designs across our partner engineering teams and work closely with our PMs to design, build, and maintain a growing set of features that will serve the needs of our customers.
