Who are we looking for?

We are looking for engineers with distributed systems experience. You should have experience with the software development and design of the features and launching them into production. You’ve operated high-scale services and understand how to make them more resilient. You have experience working with services that require data to travel long distances but must abide by compliance and regulations.

The ideal candidate will contribute to the software design and development for major components of Oracle’s Cloud Infrastructure. You should be both a rock-solid coder and a distributed systems generalist, able to dive deep into any part of the stack and low-level systems, as well as design broad distributed system interactions. You should value simplicity and scale, work comfortably in a collaborative, agile environment, and be excited to learn.

What are the biggest challenges for the team?

The team is rebuilding the distributed system as a workflow. The dynamic and fast growth of the business is driving us to build brand new innovative technologies. We understand that software is living and needs investment. The challenge is making the right tradeoffs, communicating those decisions effectively, and crisp execution.

We need engineers who can build services that can reliably protect our customer cloud environment. We need engineers who can figure out how we can keep up our solution in a fast pace to securely protect our customers. We need engineers who can build services that enable us to offer even more options to customers and contribute to the overall growth of Oracle Cloud.
