As Microsoft continues to push the boundaries of AI, our vision is bold and transformative: to reinvent online shopping experiences for hundreds of millions of users worldwide. Microsoft Shopping empowers customers to find what they want quickly and confidently by surfacing the most relevant products at the best prices from across the web.
Our team operates at true web scale—connecting billions of products from merchants globally and delivering rich shopping experiences across Bing, Edge, MSN, and Copilot. We combine cutting-edge information retrieval, recommendation systems, and generative AI to help users make informed purchase decisions. As part of the Microsoft AI (MAI) organization, our work directly drives critical Microsoft businesses and shapes the future of commerce.
If you have a keen interest in solving complex AI challenges, building systems that operate at massive scale, and leading innovation in personalization and relevance, this is the team for you. We move fast, uphold a high bar for quality, and are committed to using data and AI to create delightful, trusted shopping experiences for everyone.
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.
