About the role

What will you do at Oracle?

The Principal AI Agent / ML Software Engineer is a Senior Staff-level, hands-on

technical leadership role responsible for defining, building, and operating

next-generation AI systems on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This person

will set architecture and engineering direction for production-grade agentic AI

platforms, autonomous workflows, scalable inference infrastructure, and

enterprise AI applications used in large-scale, business-critical environments.

This role requires a proven engineer who can translate ambiguous product and

platform goals into durable technical strategy, lead multi-team execution

without direct authority, and remain deeply hands-on in design, code, reviews,

operations, and incident follow-up. The ideal candidate combines deep

distributed systems experience with practical AI-native engineering, including

orchestration of LLMs, tools, APIs, memory, retrieval, evaluation, guardrails,

and cloud services. The expectation is to ship, scale, and operate reliable,

secure, observable, and cost-aware AI platform systems while raising the

technical bar for engineers across the organization.
