Job description

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is seeking exceptional IC6 Software Engineers to help shape the future of Storage. As AI and agentic workloads fundamentally change how applications are built, deployed, and operated, the underlying storage platform must evolve to meet new demands for scale, performance, reliability, and efficiency.

Working alongside some of OCI's most experienced distributed systems engineers, you'll design and build foundational services that support Oracle's global cloud platform. This role offers the opportunity to solve some of the industry's most complex infrastructure challenges while influencing the future architecture of one of Oracle Cloud's core services

Responsibilities

What you'll do

  • Design and develop highly scalable distributed systems supporting Oracle Cloud Storage.

  • Build foundational services within the Core Storage, Metadata, or Web Service layers.

  • Solve complex infrastructure problems involving data movement, scalability, reliability, and performance.

  • Design systems capable of managing massive datasets across multiple regions while maintaining low latency and high availability.

  • Improve platform efficiency through architectural enhancements, system refactoring, and operational simplification.

  • Collaborate across engineering teams to evolve the architecture supporting Oracle's global cloud infrastructure.

  • Drive engineering excellence through code reviews, technical design discussions, and architectural leadership.

  • Mentor engineers and contribute to technical direction within the organization.

  • Influence the future of cloud storage as customer workloads continue to evolve with AI and distributed computing.

Requirements

  • Extensive experience designing and building large-scale distributed systems.

  • Strong infrastructure engineering background with experience working close to the underlying technology stack.

  • Strong understanding of distributed systems concepts, scalability, fault tolerance, and performance optimization.

  • Experience building highly available, fault-tolerant services operating at cloud scale.

  • Proficiency in Java, C++, Go, Rust, or similar systems programming languages.

  • Experience working in public cloud environments such as OCI, AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud.

  • Knowledge of caching strategies, throttling, recovery mechanisms, and storage performance optimization

  • Excellent problem-solving skills with the ability to simplify complex
