• Build automation, tooling, and scripts that reduce manual effort and improve reliability.

• Monitor service health, performance, and availability, and act on emerging trends.

• Improve observability, operational workflows, and service-level performance.

• Evaluate new tools and technologies that can improve reliability, efficiency, or scale.

• Contribute to technical guidance, knowledge sharing, and the development of other engineers.

• Ability to diagnose issues across multiple services and technical domains.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills across engineering teams.

• A mindset focused on resilience, simplification, automation, and continuous improvement.

• Why Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)?

• You’ll work on infrastructure that operates at global scale and supports critical workloads for customers around the world.

• At OCI, you’ll have the opportunity to solve hard reliability problems, influence how services are designed and operated, and work alongside engineers building the next generation of cloud infrastructure.

• If you enjoy solving complex production problems and making large-scale systems more reliable, scalable, and easier to operate, we’d like to hear from you.
