Frontier Industry Advisor, Manufacturing and Mobility - Korea

AI-led transformation is reshaping every industry in the world. Across manufacturing and mobility, customers have moved beyond prioritizing individual AI use cases and are now deploying AI transformation at scale — reinventing how they design, build, move and service, with human-and-agent teams at the center of the operating model.

Microsoft Frontier Company is where that work happens. Frontier Company brings Microsoft’s deep industry expertise together with Forward Deployed Engineering (FDE) and our engineering studios into a single, agile motion that co-builds agentic solutions with our most strategic customers. Our Manufacturing & Mobility team leads that motion for the world’s automakers, suppliers and industrial manufacturers: defining each customer’s Frontier opportunity, shaping the business outcomes that matter, and driving them through to production. It is no longer about one software solution; it is about co-building a connected, secure, scalable agentic platform — and feeding what we learn back into Microsoft’s product roadmaps.

Our team culture is centered on embracing a growth mindset, inspiring excellence, and encouraging teams and leaders to bring their best each day. In doing so, we create life-changing innovations that impact billions of lives around the world. We also strive to have fun!

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.

If you have a passion for customer success and want to be part of the greatest digital revolution, we want to hear from you.
