Product Designer Ii

AI is transforming the world - and design is evolving with it. At Microsoft, we’re not just designing for the future - we’re designing with it. As Microsoft continues to push the boundaries of AI, we are on the lookout for passionate individuals to work with us on the most interesting and challenging AI questions of our time. This is your opportunity to help shape a new era of human-computer interaction - where design and intelligence move in harmony, and designers and AI collaborate as creative partners.

We’re inviting the next generation of creative leaders to help shape how people work, learn, communicate, and create - with AI not as a tool, but as a teammate. We’re looking for a **Product Designer II** to join us in Microsoft 365 Copilot team - someone who thinks beyond screens and pixels, sees interfaces as intelligent systems, workflows as conversations, and products as living, learning collaborators. Microsoft 365 Copilot is the new UI for AI - this is where the future of work is being designed.

As a Product Designer, you’ll bring fresh ideas, strong design skills, and a curious mindset - focusing on what AI should do, not just what it can do. You see AI not just as an engine, but as a medium - one that changes how we build, design, and create. You are also an experienced ‘builder’ who advocates for Gen AI-led transformation and already utilize all forms of AI and Agents in amplifying your capabilities and unlocking new potential. If you thrive in ambiguity, love exploring the unknown, and want to help shape the future of design in the age of intelligence, this is your opportunity.

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.
