TL;DR · Senior Platform Software Engineer, Developer Platform

Senior Platform Software Engineer (OCI - Developer Platform) joins the OCI team to design, build, and operate core services and APIs for a new application deployment platform. This role focuses on creating reliable, secure, and scalable deployment workflows that simplify how developers build, validate, release, and operate services within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The engineer will develop platform primitives to support agentic engineering while ensuring safety through policy enforcement and observability. Key responsibilities include collaborating with cross-functional teams to translate ambiguous needs into technical designs and improving developer experience based on operational signals. Required skills include proficiency in Java, Go, C++, C#, or Python, along with expertise in distributed systems, container-based architecture, service-oriented architecture, and API development. The role addresses the critical challenge of building a high-leverage foundation for trustworthy, large-scale cloud infrastructure and automated software delivery.

What you'll do

  • Design, build, test, and operate core services and APIs for the OCI application deployment platform.
  • Deliver resilient and scalable deployment workflows to help developers ship changes across diverse environments.
  • Translate ambiguous platform requirements into clear technical designs and high-quality software in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
  • Build safety features including isolation, policy enforcement, auditability, and automated recovery paths into the product.
  • Develop platform primitives that support AI-assisted engineering workflows while maintaining strict security controls.
  • Use operational signals and customer feedback to improve developer experience and deployment success rates.
  • Raise engineering standards through code reviews, technical documentation, and mentoring of other team members.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 5+ years of professional software development experience with a record of delivering production-quality distributed systems, platform services, or developer tools.
  • Strong programming skills in one or more modern languages such as Java, Go, C++, C#, Python, or similar.
  • Experience designing APIs, data models, and service architectures with focus on scalability, availability, security, and operability.
  • Solid understanding of cloud-native systems including containers, orchestration, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, or release engineering.
  • Demonstrated ownership to drive work from problem definition through design, implementation, launch, and ongoing operation.
  • Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines.
  • Experience in deployment platforms, distributed systems, SRE, security engineering, or AI-assisted developer tools (preferred).
