Job description
Join the OCI DDOS Team as we embark on operating our DDOS Infrastructure Platform while we develop a DDOS Product for our customers.
Manage a team that designs, develops, troubleshoots and debugs software programs for databases, applications, tools, networks etc.Overview
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is seeking a Senior Manager to lead the engineering team building and operating OCI's cloud-scale DDoS protection platform and customer-facing DDoS product. You will collaborate on strategy, roadmap, and delivery for globally distributed detection and mitigation systems, while developing a high-performing team and driving operational excellence.
What you'll own
- Define multi-quarter roadmap and quarterly plans for DDoS platform and product, aligned to OCI priorities and revenue goals.
- Make data-driven tradeoffs across feature velocity, resiliency, and cost; manage build-vs-buy with clear ROI.
- Lead new service development from concept and business case through GA: PRDs, architecture, stage gates, resourcing, and launch readiness.
- Deliver low-latency, high-availability backend services for detection, classification, and mitigation across OCI's global edge.
- Drive scalable data and control planes (policy, signaling, telemetry, orchestration) with strong fault isolation and resiliency.
- Guide anycast routing, BGP signaling, and traffic steering; integrate with OCI Networking, DNS, and edge services.
- Oversee capacity modeling, scale testing, and multi-region readiness.
- Establish and meet SLOs/SLAs and KPIs; ensure on-call health, incident readiness/response, and rigorous post-incident improvements.
- Champion automation-first operations: CI/CD, test frameworks, canary/blue-green releases, and infrastructure-as-code.
- Build robust observability (metrics, logs, traces) and near-real-time telemetry/streaming pipelines for detection at scale.
- Security, compliance, and risk
- Govern threat modeling, architecture reviews, and risk remediation; ensure auditability and policy adherence for Tier 0 services.
- Embed security and privacy by design; enforce zero trust principles and secure service-to-service communication (mTLS, policy).
- Hire, onboard, and grow a diverse, high-performing team; set clear OKRs, provide ongoing coaching and feedback, and drive career paths and succession planning.
- Mentor senior ICs and emerging leaders; establish technical ladders, design reviews, and knowledge-sharing rituals.
- Cross-functional leadership and communications
- Partner closely with Product, SRE, Networking, Architecture, and Security to land integrated capabilities and resilient outcomes.
- Provide crisp executive updates on status, risks, mitigations, and outcomes., * Protect OCI's infrastructure availability with resilient, automated DDoS detection and mitigation at hyperscale.
- Launch and evolve customer-facing DDoS offerings that provide self-service policy, visibility, and strong SLAs.
- Raise engineering quality, automation coverage, and compliance maturity across the stack.
- Build and scale a world-class engineering organization grounded in security-by-design and operational excellence.
Ways of working
- Security and privacy by design with auditable controls; policy adherence from day one.
- Data-driven delivery with clear KPIs, SLOs, and stage gates from prototype to GA.
- Collaborative, inclusive engineering culture with design docs, code reviews, and continuous learning.
