You may ask yourself, what does a Dev PFE do?net_v_web

We do both proactive and reactive work encompassing a variety of Microsoft’s developer products.  In general, the reactive work is where a customer is experiencing a problem (usually in production) and they need someone onsite to help them resolve the issue. The proactive work usually takes the form of knowledge transfer to companies on how they can improve the maintainability of their code, how to debug problems and how to optimize their applications.  I have also done a fair number of “proofs of concept” for customers where they just don’t know how to do something or they want me to prove that it can be done.

And the list really does go on.  You will work with our largest customers around the world helping them write better code, solving complex issues, teaching them about the latest technology and just making the world a better place.
