Product Designer II

The CoreAI Computational Design team is shaping the next generation of coding environments across VS Code, Azure AI Foundry, GitHub, and Visual Studio, while fusing trust-building experiences in concert with the Microsoft Responsible AI team. We are looking for a -shaped person with experience and awareness in both culture (one leg of the symbol) and coding (the other leg symbol), and who thrives moving across the needs of humanity and the power of computation.As coding evolves from a one-way act of writing instructions into a dialogue with agentic systems, we see new possibilities for how software can be built, deployed, and maintained. Our vision is to make this future tangible by designing experiences that feel natural to use, draw strength from scale, and create the sense of working with a true collaborator.

Responsible AI Designer

Within this team, we're looking for designer to help shape how developers experience Responsible AI across Microsoft's CoreAI ecosystem. You'll design generative UI patterns and trust-based interactions that make AI governance feel natural, not like a compliance checkbox. Think: real-time guidance that helps developers build safely without slowing them down-making "the right thing" the easy thing. This isn't theoretical work. Your designs will ship as infrastructure that millions of developers rely on daily.
