The Compute Bare Metal Provisioning team owns the critical infrastructure responsible for automating the full server lifecycle from new platform shape (AMD/Intel/Arm/Nvidia) creation, hardware bring-up to customer-ready instance provisioning and firmware management. The services operate at the intersection of bare metal hardware and full-stack orchestration frameworks, a unique combination where both distributed systems engineers and engineers with background in Linux and firmware are highly valued. The team interfaces directly with components like BMCs, NICs, SmartNICs, ILOMs, GPUs, and custom firmware stacks. The team builds high performance, scalable micro-services and tooling that provision, configure, secure, and validate server platforms across OCI’s massive fleet of Compute and GPU Infrastructure. You will partner closely across other teams in Compute, Networking, Security, Data center Engineering, and Hardware Development to ensure OCI can launch, scale, and maintain new server platforms with minimal operational overhead and high reliability. You will work directly with cutting edge GPU hardware and see the direct impact of your work on the business. We strive for equity, inclusion, and respect for all. We are committed to the greater good in our products and our actions. We are constantly learning and taking opportunities to grow our careers and ourselves. We challenge each other to stretch beyond our past to build our future. You are the builder here.
