Microsoft’s Azure Data engineering team is leading the transformation of analytics in the world of data with products like databases, data integration, big data analytics, messaging & real-time analytics, and business intelligence. The products our portfolio include Microsoft Fabric, Azure SQL DB, Azure Cosmos DB, Azure PostgreSQL, Azure Data Factory, Azure Synapse Analytics, Azure Service Bus, Azure Event Grid, and Power BI. Our mission is to build the data platform for the age of AI, powering a new class of data-first applications and driving a data culture.

Within Azure Data, the messaging and real-time analytics team provides comprehensive solutions and a robust platform that enables users to ingest high granularity signals (real-time & observability) and complex data, converting those into a competitive advantage in real-time for both end users and modern applications.

The Kusto team builds Microsoft’s big data interactive analytics service – Azure Data Explorer, that powers Microsoft big data analytics products and is used extensively to operate many other Microsoft services and products.

The Kusto product team is expanding as the Azure Data Explorer service gets more momentum and adoption globally. We are making the digital transformation happen for more and more businesses across the world.

Join the Kusto team as Software Engineer and be part of empowering businesses all over the world to be more up to date, aware and efficient in a rapidly changing environment in ways that they could not imagine before.

We do not just value differences or different perspectives. We seek them out and invite them in so we can tap into the collective power of everyone in the company. As a result, our customers are better served.

The Kusto team started as a small incubation 10 years ago, and since then has made a lot of buzz within Microsoft, offering a new solution, Azure Data Explorer, for exploring and analyzing log data based on new disruptive technology. Azure Data Explorer’s panel of customers includes thousands of Microsoft services and is growing constantly, within and outside Microsoft.

Today, we are running a very large-scale cloud service, providing log analytics for hundreds of teams across all Microsoft divisions, as well as for Azure Top100 companies, indexing over 50PB of data daily.

We are looking for experienced and motivated engineers to help us drive the Kusto revolution and make it THE technology for log search and text analytics across the world. Reinventing the way people interact with big data is happening NOW in the Azure Data Explorer (Kusto) team.
