About the role
What will you do at Oracle?
The Principal Core Infrastructure 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
cloud distributed systems, 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.
Only Oracle brings together the data, infrastructure, applications, and
expertise to power everything from industry innovations to life-saving care. And

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.

competitive benefits that support our people with flexible medical, life
insurance, and retirement options. We also encourage employees to give back to
