Senior Program Manager, Product Team - Health AI

At Microsoft AI, our health team is on a mission to help millions of users better understand and proactively manage their health and wellbeing. We’re responsible for ensuring that Microsoft AI’s models and services are useful, trusted and safe across diverse customer health journeys.

For this role the Microsoft Health AI team is looking for a Principal/Senior Program Manager that will help ensure our team of product managers, engineers and designers are best set up to deliver on our core health product solutions. Across all our hires, it’s important for colleagues to share our enthusiasm about the role of technology and AI in health and healthcare, but also appreciate the challenges and risks of delivering effective solutions in a complex and safety critical space. By design, we will remain a lean team (albeit within a much larger organization), and as such you will need to be action orientated, self-sufficient and actively help to cultivate and promote a positive team culture.

Microsoft’s wider 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.
