This team operates at the center of OCI's rapid growth and expansion.

Key Challenges Include

• Designing systems capable of handling rapidly increasing traffic and service growth.
• Improving the scalability, availability, and performance of globally distributed services.
• Building resilient systems that can withstand regional outages and dependency failures.
• Balancing rapid feature delivery with long-term platform sustainability.
• Driving architectural simplification while maintaining operational excellence.
• Enabling OCI service teams and customers to scale seamlessly and securely.

We are looking for leaders who can help teams navigate complex technical trade-offs, execute decisively, and build services that operate reliably at cloud scale.

Minimum Qualifications

• BS or MS in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
