  • Build and operate large-scale, multi-tenant cloud infrastructure components.
  • Design and implement distributed system interactions focused on high availability and scalability.
  • Write production-level code using C++ or Java to solve complex engineering problems.
  • Manage the lifecycle of network infrastructure including planning, provisioning, and security.
  • Develop innovative solutions for new OCI services from the ground up.
  • Solve low-level systems issues across the entire technology stack.

What we're looking for

  • Master's degree in computer science, engineering, or related fields.
  • 8+ years of experience with systems/application development.
  • 5+ years of experience with distributed systems or network programming.
  • Proficiency in C++ or Java.
  • Proficiency with data structures, algorithms, and operating systems.
