New Today

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) delivers mission-critical applications for top tier enterprises around the world. Our cloud offers unmatched hyper-scale, multi-tenant services deployed in more than 50 regions worldwide. OCI is expanding its mission beyond the traditional boundaries of public cloud to include dedicated, hybrid and multi cloud, edge computing, and more. Were embarking on ambitious new initiatives such as building new innovative platforms, high performance primitives, frameworks to support OCI developers, and new container runtime that will allow us to run the full variety of OCI services, including our most demanding, high-performance, high-availability services. Were also working on new ingenuities such as providing canonical implementation of core components for data planes through a data-plane runtime framework, developing a remote persistent storage solution with the latency and performance comparable to that of a local nVME drive, and developing standards and tools to identify critical performance improvements across OCI data-planes. We are hoping to enhance engineering efficiency by concentrating our expertise on building low level systems with high performance that can be adopted by our core cloud services across OCI.
As Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) continues its rapid expansion, we are seeking a skilled Software Engineer to join our newly established Cloud Performance Organization. Your work will focus on optimizing the performance of OCIs critical components, internal tools, and applications while fostering a culture of performance engineering.
It is a dynamic and flexible workplace where youll belong and be encouraged.
You work on most projects and tasks independently and extend technical leadership to development teams.
In this role, you will enable development teams by driving design of major service components, working with engineering managers and TPMs, and providing direct guidance to more junior team members. You can go from high level system design, writing architectural documentation and driving engineering peer reviews to hands-on prototyping, code reviews and project bootstrapping.
You can balance speed and quality with iteration and incremental improvements. You understand operational excellence and how to instill a culture of high quality and customer focus.
Evaluate the performance of cloud services, identify inefficiencies, and design cost-effective solutions.
Benchmark OCI services against competitors and identify performance improvement opportunities.
Collaborate with service teams to integrate performance evaluation tools into CI/CD pipelines.
Quantify and communicate the financial impact of inefficiencies, linking performance data to business metrics.
Develop and implement improvements in shared components, libraries, and runtime configurations (e.g., Java runtime, SDKs, and images).
