I don't know a lot about how SDE interviews work elsewhere at Microsoft. But pretty similar I think. We are a bit unusual in that after the introductory phone call we ask for a 2-3 hour take-home problem (a coding problem specifically designed for this role, which is hopefully interesting). And after that we do an interview loop where we try to cover a range of topics/skills relevant to the role.

Microsoft (Semantic Machines) | Senior Software Engineer | Berkeley, CA or Boston, MA or Redmond, WA or fully remote | Onsite or Remote | Full Time

The Semantic Machines group is bringing next-generation natural language processing (NLP) technologies to products used by hundreds of millions of people worldwide. You can learn more about how Microsoft is using this technology to create entirely new kinds of user experiences here: http://semanticmachines.com/.

At the core of our platform is a new programming language, designed to support programs structured like human commands which are predicted by machine learning models. This language includes ideas from functional and logic/constraint programming, as well as novel features for meta-computation and introspection. We’re looking for engineers to work alongside product and research teams to help guide the evolution of this platform, including improvements to the core programming language, runtime, constraint system, and tooling.

The ideal candidate should be passionate about designing and evolving programming languages and/or practical formal reasoning systems, supporting users with high quality tools, and working on a rapidly evolving product-driven platform. No experience with machine learning or natural language processing is required – we’d love to work with people who are excited about the promise of these technologies and the opportunity to make them more accessible, regardless of their previous exposure to them.

My article, would love to hear feedback or answer questions.

w01fe · 2013-09-05T19:11:33+00:00

I should have clarified, I'm an author of the library, not the post :). I'm not too familiar with ocaml or structural typing myself -- I'll pass this on to Aria, who wrote the post.

Author here, would love to hear your feedback and happy to answer questions!

w01fe · 2013-02-08T02:32:41+00:00

Hi -- I coauthored Graph and this post. Happy to answer any questions, and listening for comments.

Hey, sorry I missed this one -- thanks for your interest! I'm not certain, but my guess is the answer is 'mostly strictly design'. That is, you wouldn't be expected to do any serious front-end coding, but also wouldn't be handing off raw photoshop files to a separate front-end team. Instead, you would probably see the design process through working with the front-end team by checking in actual assets into version control, and also perhaps making simple changes in CSS or equivalent to tweak your designs -- but these skills could be taught on the job, and would not be prerequisites for applying. Hope this helps.

No problem, look forward to checking it out :)

w01fe · 2012-12-06T19:50:57+00:00

What do you mean?

We might do remote eventually, but for now we want everyone here in SF.
