As a Senior Platform Software Engineer on the OCI Developer Platform team, you will design, build, and operate core services and APIs for a new application deployment system. You will develop resilient, scalable deployment workflows to help developers safely ship changes across diverse environments while establishing foundations for agentic engineering at cloud scale. Your daily work involves creating platform primitives that support AI-assisted workflows while maintaining strict safety, governance, and reliability standards. The role requires proficiency in modern languages such as Java, Go, C++, C#, or Python, alongside experience with distributed systems, container orchestration, CI/CD, and infrastructure automation. You will collaborate across engineering disciplines to transform ambiguous requirements into technical designs, focusing on high-availability service architectures, API development, and robust security controls like identity management and policy-as-code within a cloud-native environment.
