Does protecting over 1 billion customers and making the cyber world a better place sound exciting? Do you have what it takes to be part of the top security response team in the world?
This role may be your opportunity. Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) is looking for motivated and experienced security professionals to join us. There are few places in Microsoft that have a direct impact on as many customers as our Crisis Response Team where you will coordinate Microsoft’s response to the most critical security issues facing the company and our customers. When you read in the news about hackers; when the integrity of our products is at stake; or when a zero-day exploit is being used to attack customers, the Crisis Response team works across Microsoft to rapidly defend Microsoft and its customers against these threats.
Responsibilities

You will regularly make high-stakes decisions with executive visibility and company-wide impact on extremely short timelines, often with limited information. Excellent communications, strong interpersonal awareness, attention to detail, and the ability to foster cooperation and trust across teams are key to success in this role. Excellent program management skills for organizing information, breaking down complex problems, and working effectively in situations involving uncertainty are must-haves.
