TL;DR · Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

The Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer joins the OCI AI Infrastructure team to build an ultra-high-performance GPU platform for AI, ML, and HPC workloads. This role focuses on designing, implementing, and optimizing distributed systems components to ensure horizontal and vertical scalability, resiliency, and operability. You will develop fault-tolerant paths using redundancy, replication, and automatic failover while applying recovery-oriented computing principles like circuit breakers and timeouts. Daily tasks include performing load and performance testing, managing data plane platforms for high-volume retrieval, and developing automation through Infrastructure as Code. You will also manage telemetry, dashboards, and incident response while implementing security controls like encryption and access management. The work addresses the technical challenge of scaling from tens to thousands of GPUs without compromising performance in multi-tenant environments.

What you'll do

  • Design and implement scalable components for distributed systems to support high-volume data processing.
  • Build fault-tolerant paths using redundancy, replication, automatic failover, and circuit breakers.
  • Develop and execute performance, load, and fault-injection tests to ensure system correctness.
  • Create dashboards, telemetry systems, and automated alerts to proactively monitor component health.
  • Diagnose and resolve system issues while developing automation scripts and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting.
  • Participate in incident response rotations and perform root cause analysis for system failures.
  • Apply advanced security controls including encryption and access management in multi-tenant environments.
  • Maintain infrastructure compliance by following change management plans and updating technical documentation.

What we're looking for

  • Must have 3 to 5+ years of experience.
  • Must be able to read, write, and speak English.
  • Must be able to design, implement, and optimize components in distributed systems for scalability and resiliency.
  • Must be able to develop automation and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) for troubleshooting and maintenance.
  • Must be able to implement advanced security controls including encryption and access remediation.
  • Must be able to perform load and performance testing for large-scale data processing.
  • Must be able to build fault-tolerant paths using redundancy, replication, and automatic failover.
  • Must be able to participate in incident response and perform root cause investigations.
