Job description

Job Description

At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), we are building the next generation of cloud services for autonomous and intelligent robotics.

OCI Robotics Cloud is Oracle's strategic cloud platform for robotics. Our mission is to enable enterprises to seamlessly onboard, manage, monitor, and operate heterogeneous robot fleets through secure, scalable, AI-powered cloud services.

Unlike traditional robotics platforms that focus on individual robots, OCI Robotics Cloud is building the cloud operating system for robotics—providing common services for robot identity, registration, fleet management, mission orchestration, telemetry, digital twins, software lifecycle management, and AI-powered automation.

A key part of our vision is an AI-driven, spec-based robot onboarding platform that enables robots from any vendor to integrate rapidly through standardized cloud interfaces, reusable edge services, and AI-generated service contracts.

As Director of OCI Robotics Cloud, you will build both the platform and the organization that will define Oracle's long-term robotics strategy.

This is a rare opportunity to build a greenfield cloud platform with executive visibility and industry-wide impact at the intersection of AI, cloud infrastructure, robotics, and edge computing.

Responsibilities

About You

You are a builder.

You enjoy creating organizations, platforms, and engineering cultures from the ground up.

You have successfully led engineering teams building large-scale cloud platforms and understand how to balance long-term technical vision with rapid execution.

You believe great platforms are built around reusable abstractions, developer productivity, and operational excellence.

You are passionate about AI and understand how generative AI can fundamentally improve software engineering, developer experience, and platform automation.

You have a proven track record of hiring, mentoring, and growing exceptional engineering organizations.

You communicate effectively with engineers, architects, product leaders, customers, and executive leadership.

What You'll Do

Define the Platform

• Define the long-term architecture and technical vision for OCI Robotics Cloud.
• Build the cloud platform enabling robot registration, identity, fleet management, mission orchestration, telemetry, digital twins, and software lifecycle management.
• Establish common APIs, service contracts, SDKs, and edge service frameworks that support robots from multiple vendors.
