As a senior software engineer at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), you will join the Kubernetes Engine (OKE) team to build and operate large-scale managed Kubernetes services. Your role involves defining architecture for major OKE initiatives, designing distributed systems that manage Kubernetes clusters across OCI regions, and enhancing reliability, scalability, and observability of these platforms. You will work extensively with Kubernetes control plane components, networking technologies like CNI, Calico, and storage integrations such as CSI drivers, while also applying AI-assisted workflows to improve engineering efficiency. This position requires advanced knowledge in Go/Golang and Java, along with strong Linux and production operations skills, and experience in cloud infrastructure and distributed systems. The ideal candidate will have a background in Kubernetes and cloud native technologies, ready to tackle complex technical challenges and drive impactful solutions for OCI’s expanding AI and GPU workloads.

What you'll do

  • Define architecture and drive implementation for major OKE platform initiatives.
  • Design and build distributed systems for Kubernetes cluster lifecycle management.
  • Improve reliability, scalability, performance, and observability of OKE platforms.
  • Work deeply with Kubernetes control plane components and etcd to enhance system stability.
  • Lead technical reviews and apply AI-assisted workflows to boost engineering productivity.

What we're looking for

  • 10+ years of software engineering experience with a focus on cloud infrastructure.
  • Deep hands-on expertise in Kubernetes architecture, APIs, control plane behavior, and advanced networking/storage technologies.
  • Strong background in distributed systems, including availability, failure handling, performance, scalability, and operational tradeoffs.
  • Experience designing, building, operating, or debugging production services or platforms at scale.
  • Proficiency in Go/Golang and Java development with strong Linux, networking, debugging, and production operations skills.
  • Ability to lead ambiguous technical projects, influence across teams, and deliver through other engineers without formal authority.
