Microsoft Launched the public cloud service-Azure in China on May 2013, Cosmos is the key component to Azure which support the platform of public cloud. Cosmos is a massively-parallel supercomputer comprised of tens of thousands of commodity servers, coordinating to provide vast reliable storage and stunning computation power. Every day we process hundreds of petabytes of data from Azure, Bing, AdCenter, MSN, and Windows Live. Every day we run thousands of computations that read and write petabytes of data. The underlying service needs to be unimaginably fast, and it needs to be rock-solid reliable.
The Cosmos Team is on path to scale to exabytes of storage in coming years. Our users run computations over the sum corpora of human knowledge - multiple copies of the world-wide-web and all of the structured data/imagery linked from it. A ‘small’ computation for us reasons over terabytes of storage within a few seconds; computations that read petabytes are becoming more and more common.
The Cosmos team in STB is effectively part of a bigger Cosmos team located in Both Bellevue, WA, USA and Beijing.
Cosmos team in STB is looking for a top-notch developer to help advance the state of the art in cloud storage and computation engine. The dev will design, implement, and deliver one or more important Cosmos services, components, or tools.
This is a fun and fast paced environment and a great opportunity to work on something highly strategic to Microsoft. We have very tough competition and there are a lot of challenges for us to tackle.
