Data&AI Science

The Data&AI Science team in Microsoft’s CoreAI Division is shaping the future of AI for developers. We are a diverse, entrepreneurial, and multidisciplinary team of scientists, researchers, and engineers driven by the shared mission of empowering every developer and their team to achieve more using AI-assisted tools. Our work powers key innovations behind GitHub Copilot, VSCode, Visual Studio, and other Microsoft Copilots, bringing cutting-edge AI to millions of developers worldwide.

Check out our past research publications, and track our latest news & features to see how we improve developer productivity with AI. 
We are always seeking passionate scientists and engineers who can excel in:

• Develop state-of-the-art models for code completion, editing and agentic reasoning.
• Develop retrieval-augmented and program analysis models that improve a model’s awareness of large and complex codebases, enabling context-rich code assistance.
• Design and prototype efficient inference algorithms to enable fast, interactive code generation experiences at scale.
• Build evaluation benchmarks for Github Copilot completion/chat/agentic scenarios.

• Collaborate across disciplines in Microsoft and Github.
• Stay up to date with the research literature and product advances in AI for software engineering.
