The ideal candidate is passionate about reliability, automation, observability, and performance. You will collaborate closely with software engineering, product, security, operations, and customer-facing teams to design resilient systems, improve service health, respond to incidents, and support modernization efforts across healthcare workflows, interoperability, data platforms, and AI-driven capabilities.

This role bridges software engineering and operations: designing infrastructure and services for reliability, developing automation, improving monitoring and alerting, supporting incident response and root cause analysis, and contributing to secure, scalable systems running on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure., * Design, build, test, and operate reliable cloud infrastructure, platform capabilities, and services on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and legacy deployment models.

  • Partner with software engineering teams to develop scalable, resilient services, APIs, integrations, and distributed systems.
  • Forecast capacity needs, analyze service trends, and take proactive steps to ensure systems can support current and future workloads.
  • Monitor service health, availability, latency, performance, and capacity using observability and reporting tools.
  • Define and maintain meaningful SLIs, SLOs, KPIs, dashboards, alerts, and runbooks for production services.
  • Improve service resilience through backup and restore validation, disaster recovery planning, secrets handling, patching, and least-privilege access practices.
  • Participate in incident response, troubleshooting, root cause analysis, postmortems, and follow-up remediation.
  • Develop automation, scripts, and tooling to support provisioning, deployment, monitoring, metrics collection, mitigation, and remediation.
  • Support safe release practices, including CI/CD, infrastructure automation, canary or blue-green deployments, rollback planning, and operational readiness reviews.
  • Investigate and debug issues across applications, infrastructure, services, and dependencies to help teams meet service level objectives.
  • Identify performance bottlenecks and reliability risks, then recommend and implement improvements.
  • Collaborate with product managers, architects, engineers, security, operations, and customer teams to deliver secure, customer-focused healthcare solutions.
  • Support modernization efforts involving cloud-native architectures, healthcare interoperability, large-scale healthcare data platforms, and AI-enabled capabilities.
  • Communicate service health, operational risks, capacity concerns, and the potential impact of infrastructure, feature, or tooling changes.
  • Contribute to documentation, runbooks, incident records, operational standards, and knowledge sharing.
  • Participate in on-call rotations and operational support for production services.

Requirements

  • Linux and networking: Processes, filesystems, systemd, DNS, TCP/IP, TLS, HTTP, load balancers, proxies, and basic database behavior.
  • Kubernetes operations: Deployments, Services/Ingress, ConfigMaps/Secrets, RBAC, resource requests/limits, probes, autoscaling, persistent storage, Helm/Kustomize, container troubleshooting, and effective kubectl troubleshooting.
  • Cloud and infrastructure-as-code: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure OCI or other cloud experience (AWS, GCP, Azure) , IAM, networks, compute, managed Kubernetes, Terraform, and configuration automation such as Ansible.
  • Delivery engineering: Git, GitHub, container images/registries, CI/CD, safe release practices including canary deployments, blue-green deployments, rollback strategies, operational readiness, and ideally GitOps.
  • Observability and reliability: Metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, useful alerts, SLIs/SLOs, error budgets, KPIs, incident response, on-call support, runbooks, postmortems, capacity planning, and performance tuning.
  • Automation: Strong Bash/Shell scripting and Python experience; PowerShell and Go are useful differentiators. Focus on eliminating recurring toil through code, scripting, and repeatable automation.
  • Security and recovery: Least-privilege access, secrets handling, image/dependency hygiene, patching, vulnerability remediation, backup/restore, and disaster-recovery testing.
  • Healthcare and data systems are strongly preferred: SQL, healthcare technology operations, healthcare interoperability, and familiarity with FHIR, HL7, or large-scale healthcare data platforms.
  • Collaboration and communication: Calm incident communication, clear root-cause analysis, collaboration with developers, technical communication, knowledge sharing, and influencing systems toward simpler, safer operations.
