Job Description
Hello future teammate! We're on quite the bold mission; we're building an AI companion that's truly empathetic, kind, and equal partners to our users. This isn't an assistant—it's a thoughtful collaborator that grows alongside the people they serve. We believe AI should elevate human potential through genuine connection and mutual understanding.
You'll join our small and nimble team as a Prompt Engineer, the architect of these relationships. You'll craft the foundations that enable meaningful human-AI partnerships. You'll shape how our companions think, respond, and evolve through language—if you'll allow slight anthropomorphization, teach them how to be their best selves. You're somewhat of a designer, somewhat of an engineer, and somewhat of a mad scientist. You'll work intimately with the design and leadership team—because this is the product!—you're designing the core of the experience.
This isn't just engineering—it's a profound exploration of what connection can mean in the age of artificial intelligence. No big deal. Just another Tuesday.
What We Are Looking For
AIs can do anything. Given the right product focus and talent, AIs can do anything. We're a humble but incredibly talented end-to-end team—we pretrain models, we fine-tune, we evaluate, and we ship Copilot to all consumers of the world. We find ourselves in this beautiful moment in time. You have a profound opportunity to influence the world for the better. AI is not just about being intellectual, it's about getting people to a new place in their life—elevating, bettering, supporting, empowering. Really understanding. And seeing someone whole. That's our focus. Does that resonate with you?
Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
