OverviewMicrosoft has an exciting opportunity to join the Azure Cloud Collaboration Center (CCC) team as a Service Engineer. The CCC is a one-of-its-kind facility combining innovation and scale to address operational challenges and unexpected events in order to provide new levels of customer responsiveness, security, and efficiency. This facility is purpose-built for cross-team work, with collaborative design elements including a 1,600 square foot video wall that provides a comprehensive visualization for Azure health, from internal processes to the customer experience; and is used to bring together engineering teams from across Azure that optimize and advance Microsoft's cloud services to be secure and reliable. The Azure CCC offers customer tours designed to offer customers a window into how we build, manage, and operate Azure at-scale, with the goal of building and reinforcing their trust in the Microsoft cloud. It includes impactful video content and hardware artifacts that range from generally available to cutting edge research that help bring Azure to life. The CCC also includes engineering collaboration workspace with near real time telemetry of the Azure cloud. This position offers an unparalleled opportunity to build and leverage your understanding of Azure, Microsoft services and/or technical approaches that develop and evolve the cloud deployment and operations strategy for Azure. The CCC is a special and highly maintained physical environment, customer experience, and collaboration space. In this role, you will deploy, manage, and maintain various types of servers, computing, telecommunication, teleconferencing, audio/visual, and video wall hardware, software, and technologies.
