Senior Product Marketing Manager

We are entering a new era of cloud operations - an era where cloud is not just a platform, but a living, collaborative, intelligent ecosystem. With Azure Copilot, we're pioneering "agentic cloud ops": a new operating model in which specialized AI agents work alongside humans to manage the full lifecycle of cloud - from migration and deployment to observability, optimization, resiliency, and troubleshooting.

Our vision is to empower cross-functional cloud teams to move faster, manage complexity with confidence, and shift from manual tasks to strategic innovation. This vision comes to life with Azure Copilot which embeds a seamless, contextual, and intuitive agentic interface directly into your workflows.
