The Senior Technical Program Manager - Compliance will work with multiple stakeholders within Azure as well as external advisors to understand regulatory and compliance framework requirements and will work to implement adherence across Azure. The role will also be supporting audit and examination engagements across multiple Microsoft Online Service's offerings with respect to that compliance.Azure Trusted Platform team calls on resources from across Microsoft to plan for regulatory obligations and to respond to the inquiries about regulations from regulators, auditors and customers. Increasingly the principal requirements and queries that those audiences have are about international compliance requirements. The work requires an inquisitive mindset, an inclination towards precision and explanation, and no fear of either detailed work or abstraction. You won't write code in this role, but you should be comfortable working with people who do. You won't write contracts in this role, but you should understand the value and limitations of contracts.
