Principal Member of Technical Staff - Seattle, United States - Oracle

Description

Are you interested in building large-scale distributed infrastructure for the cloud?

Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) team is building new Infrastructure-as-a-Service technologies that operate at large scale in a broadly distributed multi-tenant cloud environment.

Our customers run their businesses on our cloud, and our mission is to provide them with best in class, foundational cloud infrastructure services.

The Virtual Networking Team builds the highly customizable Virtual Cloud Networks (VCN) and connectivity services offering predictable and consistent performance, isolation, and availability.

We are a team that builds and maintains the OCI Software Defined Network (SDN) stack.

The Card Management team is at the forefront of bringing in new SmartNICs that are secure and performant into a large fleet of embedded Linux systems.

Our team owns onboarding new generation network technologies, deployment tooling, patching, monitoring, automation, access controls, and metrics reporting.

We are a nexus with many partner teams including Oracle Hardware Division (OHD), Oracle Linux (OL) and work across OCI to support their applications on our platform.

We're looking for hands-on engineers with expertise and passion for solving difficult problems in distributed systems and highly available services.

Why join VCN Card Management?

The Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) team has a culture of collaboration which welcomes new people to their ranks.

We not only focus on an excellent customer experience; we also spend the time to make sure that your onboarding and ramp-up experience is a great one.

We work together and help each other out, and do not skimp on technical debt, which facilitates reasonable on-call and a good work/life balance.

As a Principal Member of Technical Staff on the Card Management team, you will lead the software design and development to support SmartNICs in a growing fleet of embedded Linux systems.

You will be one of the engineers responsible for delivering a highly available, and secure fleet of critical SDN infrastructure.
