Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure builds and operates large-scale cloud services in a distributed, multi-tenant environment. The SPLAT team owns critical platform services that provide secure API routing, service registration, traffic management, private connectivity, authentication, and operational controls for OCI services. SPLAT sits in the request path for more than 300 OCI control planes and processes hundreds of billions of API requests each month. Our engineering challenges span high-throughput Java services, distributed systems, networking, security, observability, capacity management, deployment automation, and production reliability. We are looking for a hands-on technical leader who can own substantial systems and cross-service initiatives. You will lead architecture and delivery, write and review production code, resolve complex operational problems, influence partner teams, and develop other engineers. The role requires strong distributed-systems judgment and the ability to make progress when requirements, ownership, or failure domains are not initially clear.
