About The Position

Design, develop, troubleshoot and debug software programs for databases, applications, tools, networks etc. At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), we give engineers the opportunity to build and operate massive-scale cloud services in a deeply distributed, multi-tenant environment. Our teams value innovation, ownership, pragmatic problem solving, and continuous learning. The Containers, Kubernetes & Serverless (CKS) organization provides the foundational platform for running containerized workloads across OCI. Core offerings include Oracle Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE), Oracle Serverless, and Container Instances—the serverless compute platform optimized for running containers without managing servers. As part of the Container Instances Data Plane team, you will design and operate the systems responsible for securely running containers on OCI’s fleet of virtualized and bare-metal hardware. This includes working across Linux internals, container runtime isolation, networking, security boundaries, image lifecycle, performance tuning, and the orchestration systems that manage thousands of containers across OCI regions. You will help build new data-plane capabilities from the ground up, evolve the virtualization layer that powers secure container execution, and improve the reliability, scalability, and performance of the platform. This is a hands-on systems role that spans deep Linux work, containerization technologies, and distributed service design. Only Oracle brings together the data, infrastructure, applications, and expertise to power everything from industry innovations to life-saving care. And with AI embedded across our products and services, we help customers turn that promise into a better future for all. Discover your potential at a company leading the way in AI and cloud solutions that impact billions of lives. True innovation starts when everyone is empowered to contribute.
