Senior Product Manager - Foundry Inferencing & Training (CoreAI - multiple roles)
MicrosoftAbout the role
The Foundry Inference & Training team builds the platforms, services, and operating mechanisms that power Microsoft’s rapidly growing AI model ecosystem. We enable developers and enterprises to discover, deploy, and run models with reliability, performance, efficiency, and scale—spanning model catalog and integrations, model serving and runtime services, experimentation and optimization, and the tooling that makes it easy to build on Foundry.
We are looking for several Senior Product Managers who will own product strategy and execution for our model ecosystem and offerings, designing product shape for inferencing and training. As a Senior Product Manager for Foundry Inference & Training you’ll work at the intersection of AI infrastructure, model offerings, developer tooling, ecosystem partnerships, and product growth, collaborating closely with engineering, data science, finance, and go-to-market teams to deliver capabilities that drive adoption and measurable impact.
