Overview Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to change the world around us. At Microsoft, we are committed to the advancement of AI driven by ethical principles. We are looking for a AI Product Manager II to join a small incubation team to accelerate Microsoft’s capabilities for detecting and responding to AI incidents. You will work closely with product engineering teams and centralized function teams to educate and prepare them for responding when issues occur. This role works broadly across Microsoft on all levels of the AI stack and the teams supporting this important transformation. This is part incident responder, part security product manager, and always an advocate for customers and the company. Are you passionate about the safety and security of AI and how that intersects with our lives? This may be a great opportunity for you! Who we are: We are the Artificial Generative Intelligence Security (AeGIS) team, and we are charged with ensuring justified confidence in the safety of Microsoft’s generative AI products. This encompasses providing an infrastructure for AI safety; serving as a coordination point for all things AI incident response; researching the quickly evolving threat landscape; red teaming AI systems for failures; and empowering Microsoft with this knowledge. We partner closely with product engineering teams to mitigate and address the full range of threats that face AI services – from traditional security risks to novel security threats like indirect prompt injection and entirely AI-native threats like the manufacture of NCII or Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) or the use of AI to run automated scams. We are a mission-driven team intent on delivering trustworthy AI and response processes when it does not live up to those standards. We are always learning. Insatiably curious. We lean into uncertainty, take risks, and learn quickly from our mistakes. We build on each other’s ideas, because we are better together. We are motivated every day to empower others to do and achieve more through our technology and innovation. Together we make a difference for all of our customers, from end users to Fortune 50 enterprises. Our team has people from a wide variety of backgrounds, previous work histories, and life experiences, and we are eager to maintain and grow that diversity. Our diversity of backgrounds and experiences enables us to create innovative solutions for our customers. Our culture is collaborative and customer focused. What we do: The AeGIS Program Management Office is a small team of strategy and operations ninjas that accelerate and support the AeGIS team. AI has the potential to transform our daily interaction with technology. Our team develops the “how we work” arm of this complex organization and supports other workstreams in program management and operations. Our team tightly partners throughout Microsoft so that we learn from experience and work to prevent harms before they happen. How you can help: We are searching for a dynamic and resourceful Technical Program Management II who is interested in expanding their skills and expertise into the AI, safety, and security realms. The ideal candidate will have demonstrated curiosity in AI and a passion for safety and security. Your experience in product or program management will be the base that we build from. You will be working closely with a team of seasoned experts to support AI incident response and accelerating the skills of our partners. You will build expertise in AI, safety, and security. Listening, understanding, and talking are all part of this role.
