About the role
What will you do at Oracle?
At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), we are building the next generation of
cloud services for autonomous and intelligent robotics. The OCI Robotics Cloud
team is developing a secure, scalable, and cloud-native robotics platform that
enables customers to seamlessly onboard, manage, monitor, and operate
heterogeneous robot fleets across industries.
Our platform provides cloud services for robot registration, identity
management, mission orchestration, fleet management, telemetry, digital twins,
software lifecycle management, and AI-powered robotic applications.
We are pioneering an AI-driven, spec-based robot onboarding platform that
transforms robot integration from a manual engineering effort into an
AI-assisted software engineering workflow. Using AI-generated service contracts,
edge service specifications, SDKs, and implementation guidance, our platform
enables robots from multiple vendors to be integrated rapidly through
standardized interfaces and reusable adapters.
Our vision is to make robot onboarding as simple as cloud onboarding—allowing
customers and partners to bring new robots online quickly, consistently, and
securely.
If you are excited about building distributed cloud services at the intersection
of AI, cloud infrastructure, and robotics, we'd love to hear from you.

- Why this team is different
- Unlike traditional robotics teams that focus on individual robots or robot
- applications, OCI Robotics Cloud is building the cloud platform that powers
- heterogeneous robot fleets at enterprise scale. We believe robot integration
- should become an AI-assisted, spec-driven software engineering problem rather
- than a manual integration effort. Our mission is to enable customers to onboard
- robots from any vendor through standardized cloud services, common service
- contracts, and reusable edge adapters—bringing the cloud operating model to
- robotics.
