About the Team Copilot Security builds the foundations that make Microsoft’s AI experiences trusted, resilient, and safe. We design and implement security capabilities that protect users across Windows, Edge, web, mobile, and third-party ecosystems. Our work spans secure identity flows, defenses against threats like prompt injection, and privacy-first systems that scale globally.
About the Role Copilot is entering a new era of agentic AI, where intelligent agents take actions on behalf of users. We’re looking for a Software Engineer II with solid fundamentals and high growth potential,someone who can quickly deepen their expertise in AI-driven security and expand their ownership over time. You’ll contribute to secure orchestration frameworks, AI-powered defenses, and the core systems that ensure Copilot’s actions remain trustworthy. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy solving complex technical problems, learning new AI-driven patterns, and building secure, scalable systems that balance innovation with user trust.
Why This Role Matters Your work will directly shape how hundreds of millions of users experience safe, trustworthy, and innovative AI. You’ll be at the forefront of defining how agentic AI can proactively defend users, mitigate emerging threats, and unlock new secure scenarios, making a global impact on Microsoft’s most transformative products.
Responsibilities Build and ship security features that protect Copilot from threats such as prompt injection, adversarial manipulation, and unsafe agentic workflows. Implement secure orchestration components that allow Copilot to safely delegate and execute actions across devices, services, and platforms. Contribute to developing intelligent agents that apply information-flow reasoning, guardrails, and common-sense constraints for security and privacy. Collaborate with partner teams across engineering, product, security, privacy, and AI to adopt secure agentic patterns and best practices. Instrument and monitor key metrics for agentic AI security, using data to improve reliability, safety, and user trust. Write clear documentation for secure agentic patterns, including safe-delegation guidelines and emerging risk considerations. Demonstrate high growth potential by progressively expanding technical scope, autonomy, and ownership as you gain experience with agentic AI and security systems.
