You will work closely with silicon, firmware, hardware, compute, and fleet engineering teams, as well as technology and manufacturing partners, to bring new platforms from initial hardware enablement through production deployment and ongoing operation at cloud scale.

This role is well suited for an engineer with deep experience in computer systems, embedded or platform firmware, and hardware/software integration who enjoys solving difficult problems that cross traditional engineering boundaries.

Only Oracle brings together the data, infrastructure, applications, and expertise to power everything from industry innovations to life-saving care. And with AI embedded across our products and services, we help customers turn that promise into a better future for all.
