As a Member of Technical Staff, LLM Evaluation, you will develop and implement cutting-edge methodologies to help us evaluate how well Copilot performs in real-world usage scenarios. Users turn to Copilot for all types of endeavors, making it critical that we ensure our AI systems effectively help them meet their needs. Our vision for meeting user needs is expansive and includes not only task completion, but also affective aspects of the experience. You will be responsible for developing new methods to evaluate LLMs, train classifiers, experimenting with data collection techniques, and implementing methodologies to provide real-time signals on Copilot performance. We're looking for outstanding individuals with experience in the social sciences, machine learning, and analysis of natural language. The right candidate is a creative problem solver who will work closely with user researchers and product leaders to build automated evaluation frameworks that help us drive improvements in Copilot. 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. Starting January 26, 2026, MAI employees are expected to work from a designated Microsoft office at least four days a week if they live within 50 miles (U.S.) or 25 miles (non-U.S., country-specific) of that location. This expectation is subject to local law and may vary by jurisdiction.
