Core Infrastructure Engineer 2

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) builds foundational Infrastructure-as-a-Service technologies for a large-scale, distributed, multi-tenant cloud. Our customers rely on OCI to run critical workloads, and our mission is to provide secure, highly available, and high-performance cloud infrastructure.

The Virtual Cloud Networking (VCN) Dataplane team builds and operates the software-defined networking stack that powers OCI virtual networks and connectivity services. We deliver predictable performance, strong isolation, and high availability at cloud scale.

As a Software Engineer on the VCN Dataplane team, you will build and evolve the infrastructure, deployment automation, and operational systems that support our networking services. You will work across infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, distributed systems, observability, and network-focused services to deliver reliable production capabilities.

• Design, develop, test, and operate IaaS components and deployment workflows for OCI networking services.

• Build and maintain Terraform-based infrastructure and deployment automation.

• Develop and improve CI/CD pipelines for reliable, repeatable, and safe software delivery.

• Automate operational workflows using Python and Linux-based tooling.

• Partner with dataplane, platform, and service teams to deliver highly available distributed systems.

• Improve service observability through metrics, dashboards, alerts, and logging.

• Investigate and resolve production issues involving deployments, infrastructure, network behavior, and service reliability.

• Work with and understand end-to-end packet-processing paths in virtualized cloud-networking environments.

• Contribute to AI-assisted or agentic automation where it improves engineering productivity, operations, or service intelligence.
