## About the Role

Required qualifications: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

 * 3+ 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 attention to scalability, availability, security, and operability.
 * Solid understanding of cloud-native systems, including containers, orchestration, CI/CD, infrastructure automation, or release engineering concepts.
 * Demonstrated ownership: you can drive work from problem definition through design, implementation, launch, and ongoing operation.
 * Clear written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to collaborate effectively across engineering disciplines.

Preferred qualifications: Experience in one or more of the following areas is a plus.

 * Application deployment platforms, continuous delivery, GitOps, artifact management, or developer platform engineering.
 * Large-scale distributed systems, multi-tenant cloud services, control planes, or workflow orchestration.
 * Site reliability engineering, production incident response, observability, or capacity and performance engineering.
 * Security engineering, identity and access management, policy-as-code, supply-chain security, or compliance automation.

AI-assisted developer tools, agentic workflows, or the design of safety controls for autonomous or semi-autonomous systems

## Description

* Design, build, test, and operate core services and APIs for a modern application deployment platform on OCI.
 * Deliver resilient, scalable deployment workflows that make it easier for developers to safely ship changes across diverse environments and service architectures.
 * Partner with product managers, architects, security engineers, SREs, and developer teams to turn ambiguous platform needs into clear technical designs and high-quality software.
 * Build safety and reliability into the product by default: strong isolation, policy enforcement, auditability, observability, rollback and recovery paths, and thoughtful failure handling.
 * Develop platform primitives that enable AI- and agent-assisted engineering workflows while maintaining appropriate controls, least-privilege access, and human oversight.
 * Use operational signals and customer feedback to improve developer experience, performance, availability, and deployment success rates.
 * Raise the engineering bar through code reviews, design reviews, documentation, mentoring, and pragmatic technical leadership.
