Omar Shahine

Corporate Vice President at Microsoft. Seattle.

I've been building things at Microsoft since 1999. Today I lead the team behind Microsoft Scout, an always-on personal agent for Microsoft 365 built on OpenClaw. Before that I ran Microsoft Word, and before that OneDrive and SharePoint.

I live in Seattle with my wife and two kids, and I've kept a blog of one kind or another since 1996. These days I write on Substack: product reviews at OmarKnows, and AI productivity tips at OmarKnows AI.
