Since its release in 2008 it has grown to having hundreds of thousands of users managing millions of servers and clusters around the world.

• Being an agile, web-based application gives the team the flexibility to deliver on a faster than Windows basis and drive customer experience at a pace that surprises many teams, allowing us to reach out to our customers and react to them and their needs faster than ever before. Meanwhile, our Windows Server Containers offering has been growing in popularity and we need to integrate Windows containers as a first-class citizen in open-source projects like Kubernetes. You will work with the partner teams to build the “bridge tooling” alongside the community to close the gap between Windows and cloud native technologies.

• Drive execution of feature work through the whole software development lifecycle
• Collaborate across boundaries (internally and externally) to create a seamless product that delights our customers
• Work with the PM team to prioritize, estimate, and schedule feature work to meet the highest-priority demands on Windows Admin Center and Windows Server Containers
• Identify and implement engineering best practices. Drive Live Site culture within the organization to ensure services truly delight our customers
• Hire great talent and help meet career aspirations of all engineers on your team

Required Qualifications
