TL;DR · Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

The Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer joins the OCI Limits Team to manage the foundational platform for service limits, quotas, and capacity governance across Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. In this role, you will design, implement, and optimize components in distributed systems to ensure scalability, resiliency, and operability. Day-to-day responsibilities include building fault-tolerant paths with redundancy and automatic failover, developing automation and Infrastructure as Code for troubleshooting, and performing load testing. You will utilize Java, Go, and Python to manage large-scale data retrieval and storage while applying security controls like encryption. The work involves solving complex problems regarding high-scale control plane integrations, multi-tenant service architectures, and distributed persistence systems to support rapid cloud growth and enterprise-grade resource governance for customers and internal services.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement components for distributed systems that support horizontal and vertical scaling.
  • Optimize code and systems for large-scale data processing, retrieval, and storage.
  • Build fault-tolerant components using redundancy, replication, automatic failover, and circuit breakers.
  • Develop automation scripts and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting and maintenance.
  • Create dashboards, telemetry systems, and alerting mechanisms to monitor component health.
  • Diagnose and resolve system issues while participating in incident response and root cause investigations.
  • Apply advanced security controls including encryption and access management in multi-tenant environments.
  • Execute performance and load tests, including fault-injection and brown-out scenarios.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 3 to 5+ years of experience.
  • Must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Must have strong programming experience in Java, Go, Python, or similar modern languages.
  • Must have experience developing and operating services on public cloud platforms like OCI, AWS, Azure, or GCP.
  • Must have a deep understanding of distributed systems, scalability, fault tolerance, and service-oriented architectures.
  • Must have hands-on experience building and operating highly available cloud-native services in production environments.
  • Must have a strong understanding of REST API design and multi-tenant service architectures.
  • Must have experience with databases, NoSQL systems, storage technologies, and distributed persistence systems.
