Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer

Ll Oefentherapie; Santa Clara (CA); On-site; USD 140,000 - 200,000; Full time

Job summary

Ll Oefentherapie is seeking a high-impact network observability engineer in Santa Clara, CA to design and build distributed systems and algorithms that measure, analyze, and explain network behavior across data centers and WAN.

You will advance topology-aware observability, congestion analysis, and fault localization at cloud scale, coordinating with platform teams to convert insights into safe, automated traffic steering.

Responsibilities

• Design and build distributed systems for network observability across data centers and WAN
• Develop topology-aware observability capabilities and fault-localization algorithms
• Create production services that operate reliably at cloud scale and integrate with automated controllers

Job description

In this high-impact role, you will design and build distributed systems and algorithms that measure, analyze, and explain network behavior across OCI's data centers and WAN. You will combine active measurements, network topology, routing state, flow signals, and switch telemetry to identify where latency, congestion, packet loss, and failures originate.

The broader vision is to make observability an active part of the network control loop. The platform will transform trusted, confidence-scored insights into signals that automated controllers can use to steer traffic, mitigate congestion, isolate faults, and restore network health safely. These capabilities will provide the intelligence foundation for increasingly autonomous, self-healing cloud networks while maintaining explainability, policy controls, and operational safeguards.

This position requires deep systems expertise and hands-on experience with networking, algorithms, telemetry, and distributed computing. You will develop topology-aware observability capabilities, congestion-triangulation and queue-wait reconstruction algorithms, confidence-scored fault localization, and production services that operate reliably at cloud scale.
