Original job description

As a Lead Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer on Oracle's Strategic Customer Engineering team, you will play a critical role in driving complex technical initiatives across Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to support our most strategic customers. You will work across multiple service teams and cross-functional organizations to align technical requirements, resolve complex infrastructure challenges, and lead the end-to-end execution of high-impact engineering solutions that improve customer experience, reliability, and scalability.

You will serve as a technical subject matter expert, leveraging deep knowledge of cloud technologies, distributed systems, and architectural trade-offs to influence technical decisions and drive solutions across organizational boundaries. The ideal candidate combines strong hands-on engineering expertise with exceptional communication skills and a demonstrated history of leading large-scale, complex technical initiatives from design through implementation.

Responsibilities

• Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of highly scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems supporting strategic customer environments.

• Serve as a technical subject matter expert, influencing engineering strategy, architectural decisions, and technical standards across OCI service teams.

• Drive end-to-end execution of complex, cross-organizational engineering initiatives, ensuring technical requirements, dependencies, and deliverables are aligned.

• Identify and resolve system scalability, performance, and reliability bottlenecks, optimizing infrastructure for high-throughput workloads and elastic scaling.

• Evaluate architectural trade-offs involving availability, consistency, durability, security, and performance to meet service level objectives (SLOs).

• Partner with Compute, Networking, Storage, Identity, and other OCI service teams to address cross-service dependencies and technical challenges.

• Design and implement infrastructure automation, tooling, and change management solutions that improve scalability, operational efficiency, and system resilience.

• Establish observability strategies, including telemetry, KPIs, dashboards, and alerting mechanisms to proactively monitor system health and performance.

• Lead complex technical investigations, incident response, and root cause analysis, driving solutions that prevent recurring issues and minimize customer disruption.

• Drive engineering best practices for system correctness, data integrity, security, compliance, and operational readiness across distributed environments.

• Advise engineering leadership on technical risks and architectural decisions while mentoring engineers and promoting continuous improvement across teams.

Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
8+ years of experience in software engineering, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure engineering, or related technical disciplines.
Deep technical expertise designing and operating highly scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems in large-scale production environments.
Strong programming experience in Java, C++, C#, or similar languages, with hands-on scripting and automation capabilities.
Experience with infrastructure automation, containerization, and orchestration technologies such as Terraform, Ansible, Docker, and Kubernetes.
Advanced Linux expertise, including system internals, administration, performance optimization, troubleshooting, and automation across Oracle Linux, RHEL, Ubuntu, or similar distributions.
Strong understanding of cloud infrastructure architecture, including compute, networking, storage, identity, security, and multi-tenant environments.
Demonstrated experience leading complex technical initiatives and influencing architectural decisions across multiple engineering teams.
Experience with system scalability, high availability, fault tolerance, observability, and performance optimization in distributed cloud environments.
Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills, including diagnosing complex infrastructure issues, conducting root cause analysis, and improving operational reliability.
Ability to influence technical decisions and collaborate effectively with senior engineering leaders and cross-functional stakeholders.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present complex technical information clearly to technical and executive audiences.
Strong technical documentation skills, including architecture designs, technical specifications, operational procedures, and troubleshooting documentation.
