Are you interested in building large-scale distributed infrastructure for the cloud?

Our customers run their businesses on our cloud, and our mission is to provide them with best in class compute, storage, networking, database, security, and an ever expanding set of foundational cloud-based services.

The OCI Compute team is looking for Sr. Manager of Software Development with expertise and passion in solving difficult problems in distributed systems, virtualized infrastructure, and highly available services. If this is you, at Oracle you can design and build innovative new systems from the ground up. OCI is committed to providing the best in cloud products that meet the needs of our customers who are tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges. This is a key role within the OCI Compute SRE team with a strong emphasis in building solutions that support the delivery of incident and problem management.

As a Sr. Manager of Software Development you will lead the site reliability engineering and development team, delivering, supporting and automating major components of Oracle’s Cloud Infrastructure. 

You should be a distributed systems generalist, able to architect broad systems interactions, while being very hands-on, able to dive deep into any part of the stack and lower level system interactions. You should value simplicity and scale, work comfortably in a collaborative, agile environment, and be excited to learn.

Delivering large scale project on-time with the high quality

Site Reliability Engineers can have near unlimited scope across availability, durability, maintainability, operability, scalability, etc. We are looking for a manager that enables independent engineers who can help us identity and prioritize projects. This means you might focus on new region automation for a period of time, and then transition to focusing on reducing latency for a specific service next. There is a high degree of autonomy required in this role and we are looking for engineers who want to help drive our roadmap.

The ideal candidate will be technically strong and get a lot done – you’ve directly worked on services that are highly available, scalable, and redundant. Automation is a core tenet for everything you do. You understand that simple systems are easier to operate and troubleshoot. You can balance speed with iteration and incremental improvements. You’ve made life easier for other developers and have motivated your teams to make both process and service improvements.

Candidates should have broad working knowledge across multiple domains, but we love to see specialization as well. The basics we expect are: Networking, Linux Systems Engineering, Software Engineering/Automation, and Distributed Systems.
