About The Position

App Builder is transforming how businesses create and deploy custom applications through AI‑powered experiences. Within Microsoft's Business & Industry Copilot (BIC), we're pioneering the next generation of low‑code and no‑code solutions – empowering anyone to build powerful applications without deep technical expertise.
Our design studio plays a critical role in shaping how people interact with AI to bring their ideas to life as real, production‑quality applications. As a Product Designer 2, you'll help craft experiences that enable users to generate, configure, and deploy applications using AI assistance – quickly, independently, and with confidence.
This role sits at the intersection of AI, UX, and Engineering. You'll collaborate with a highly skilled, cross‑functional team to design intuitive interactions that make intelligent capabilities understandable and usable. We're particularly interested in designers who are curious about how AI can augment the design process itself, exploring emerging workflows to build intuitive product experiences.
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.
