Research Intern - Azure Systems Research
Redmond, WA
Job/Internship Description
OverviewResearch Internships at Microsoft provide a dynamic environment for research careers with a network of world-class research labs led by globally-recognized scientists and engineers, who pursue innovation in a range of scientific and technical disciplines to help solve complex challenges in diverse fields, including computing, healthcare, economics, and the environment. Azure Systems Research is a research group that brings forward-looking systems research directly into the core of Azure. The group migrated from the Systems Research Group at Microsoft Research for a closer integration with Azure. Our group's research is focused on designing and building next-generation cloud systems, and to bring about non-linear improvements on the cost efficiency, reliability, and usability of Microsoft's online services and datacenters. We work closely with the company's product groups to (1) propose and lead joint projects that improve efficiency (broadly construed), and (2) do research on potential future efficiency improvements. Over the last several years, technology arising from our research has had a major impact in the operation of Azure and of our datacenters and has led to publications in top systems conferences such as ISCA, ASPLOS, OSDI, SOSP, Eurosys, SoCC, NSDI, MICRO, and USENIX ATC. Current projects for which we are seeking PhD research interns include, but are not limited to, memory disaggregation and oversubscription, efficient GPU/LLM deployments, power efficiency and sustainability from the node to the datacenter levels, AIOps, and serverless computing. You will have access to real problems for which the solutions have significant impact; code, datasets and workloads from large deployments of real systems; and the possibility to prototype, evaluate, and deploy solutions. Research Interns are expected to clearly document and communicate their ideas and given suitable results, contribute to research publications.Research Interns are also encouraged to show initiative throughout the internship and suggest further directions for research. We strongly believe in building and fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment. We practice open communication and respectful dialogue. We support multiple social and career building opportunities in our research internship program. 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.
ResponsibilitiesResearch Interns put inquiry and theory into practice. Alongside fellow doctoral candidates and some of the world's best researchers, interns learn, collaborate, and network for life. Research Interns not only advance their own careers, but they also contribute to exciting research and development strides. During the 12-week internship, Research Interns are paired with mentors and expected to collaborate with other interns and researchers, present findings, and contribute to the vibrant life of the community. Research internships are available in all areas of research, and are offered year-round, though they typically begin in the summer. Research interns are also expected to:Engage early with their mentors to clearly formulate a plan of work for the 12 weeks of the research internship.Clearly and frequently document and communicate their progress, making adjustments to the plan as the project evolves.Participate in relevant meetings, and in relevant activities with other research interns.Show initiative throughout the research internship.
