About The Position
OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) AI Infrastructure is at the forefront of building a cutting-edge, ultra-high-performance GPU platforms designed to support AI/ML/HPC workloads. This is your chance to be part of the AI revolution, creating systems that allow customers to scale from tens to thousands of GPUs without compromising performance. Our team is responsible for designing and developing fundamental architectural changes for GPU delivery, health monitoring, testing, triage automation, and diagnostic services. These are essential for running distributed AI/ML/HPC workloads across thousands of GPUs, leveraging technologies like RoCE and Infiniband. As a Consulting Member of Technical Staff, you will own the software design and development for major components of Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure. You should be both a rock-solid lead developer, curious problem solver, a distributed systems generalist and/or skilled Linux engineer with Systems triage experience able to dive deep into any part of the stack and low-level systems to design broad distributed system interactions. You should value simplicity and scale, work comfortably in a collaborative, agile environment, and be excited to learn. This role resides within the Compute AI Infrastructure In-Band Engineering team, which owns the critical infrastructure responsible for automated testing of new platform shapes (AMD/Intel/Arm/Nvidia), hardware bring-up, configuration, benchmarking, and debugging. 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 multiple components like OCI APIs and services, NICs, SmartNICs, ILOMs, and GPUs. The team builds high performance, scalable services and tooling that launch, configure, test, 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.
