I used to work in the Windows team before I moved onto a team in Azure. I’ve contributed to both user and kernel mode components. You’ll work with very smart people and they will be very technical. Hiring bar in the Windows kernel team is very high compared to other teams in the company. You learn a lot. Work life balance will also be great.

The other great part is the sheer amount of engineering that will go into every feature you will own. I say “engineering” because it’ll be different from any services work you have done.

Tools that are at your disposal as part of Windows Core team is top notch.

Good luck! You will not regret this.

Sooo... Is Azure any good? (the product, but I guess also the workplace)

We solve a different set of problems. But people here have different skillsets. Cadence of release is also faster.

I enjoyed my time in the Windows team the most.
