The Director, Core Infrastructure Engineering - OCI Planning & Capacity leads multiple teams within the OCI Infrastructure Planning and Capacity Management organization. This role involves overseeing the architecture and delivery of scalable distributed systems that manage infrastructure capacity, resource sourcing, and demand planning. You will build software solutions for planning, forecasting, and process automation while establishing engineering standards for high-throughput data processing and fault-tolerant designs. Key responsibilities include managing data replication, implementing load-shedding, and driving telemetry strategies for proactive health assurance. You will utilize skills in cloud-native architectures, distributed systems, and software development to ensure operational readiness and security compliance. The work focuses on improving decision quality and reducing manual effort across engineering, operations, supply chain, and finance departments to support large-scale infrastructure management.
Lead multiple teams to design and implement scalable, interdependent distributed systems that meet organizational and customer demands.
Orchestrate cross-group optimizations for high-throughput, large-scale data processing and hyper-scale system requirements.
Provide strategic oversight for fault-tolerant architectures, including redundancy, replication, and automatic failover mechanisms.
Direct the development of load-shedding, throttling, and rate-limiting techniques to handle network unreliability.
Establish department-wide standards for service level objectives (SLOs), durability, availability, and formal verification.
Drive KPI and telemetry strategies to create complex dashboards and proactive alerting for system health.
Guide organization-wide incident management, root cause investigations, and operational readiness protocols.
Oversee security compliance, encryption, access controls, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) automation.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience.
10+ years of professional experience in software engineering, cloud infrastructure, or enterprise technology.
5+ years of engineering leadership experience, including experience managing engineering managers and senior technical leaders.
Demonstrated track record leading engineering organizations responsible for mission-critical software systems, infrastructure platforms, or cloud services.
Experience defining and executing engineering strategy, technical roadmaps, organizational priorities, and operating plans.
Proven ability to lead complex engineering initiatives involving multiple teams, technical dependencies, and cross-functional stakeholders.
Strong technical judgment regarding architecture decisions, system scalability, and operational reliability.
Experience establishing engineering standards, operational processes, and delivery practices to improve organizational execution.
