Job Description

At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), we build the future of the cloud for Enterprises as a diverse team of fellow creators and inventors. We act with the speed and attitude of a start-up, with the scale and customer-focus of the leading enterprise software company in the world.

Values are OCI’s foundation and how we deliver excellence. We strive for equity, inclusion, and respect for all. We are committed to the greater good in our products and our actions. We are constantly learning and taking opportunities to grow our careers and ourselves. We challenge each other to stretch beyond our past to build our future.

You are the builder here. You will be part of a team of smart, motivated, and diverse people and given the autonomy and support to do your best work. It is a dynamic and flexible workplace where you’ll belong and be encouraged.

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is looking for a Site Reliability Engineer to join our Oracle National Security Regions (ONSR)

Oracle Identity and Access Management allows users to control who has access to their cloud resources. As part of the Cloud Platform organization, the team is responsible for the design and build of core services that are utilized by internal and external customers alike. As a member of a core infrastructure team, you will be responsible for making improvements that impact some of the largest businesses in the world.

Site Reliability Engineers can have near unlimited scope across availability, durability, maintainability, operability, scalability, etc. We are looking for independent engineers who can help us identity and prioritize projects. This means you might focus on new service automation for a period of time, and then transition to focusing on reducing latency for a specific service next. There is a high degree of autonomy required in this role and we are looking for engineers who want to help drive our roadmap.

The ideal candidate will be technically strong and get a lot done – you’ve directly worked on services that are highly available, scalable, and redundant. Automation is a core tenet for everything you do. You understand that simple systems are easier to operate and troubleshoot. You can balance speed with iteration and incremental improvements. You’ve made life easier for other developers and have motivated your teams to make both process and service improvements.

Candidates should have broad working knowledge across multiple domains, but we love to see specialization as well. The basics we expect are: Networking, Linux Systems Engineering, Software Engineering/Automation, and Distributed Systems.

Qualifications:

Active Top Secret Clearance required and ability to obtain polygraph.

• 5+ years production engineering experience (distributed services or cloud platform experience preferred)

• Proven experience with automation and strong experience in a scripting language (bash, perl, python, etc)

• Solid understanding of Software Engineering and Computer Science principles
