Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) builds high-performance GPU platforms for demanding AI, machine learning, and high-performance computing workloads. We are seeking a Senior Software Development engineer to join the Raw Metal Cloud (RMC) team and help deliver reliable, scalable AI infrastructure.

RMC builds the software platform that manages the AI infrastructure lifecycle, from hardware onboarding and inventory through networking, provisioning, validation, rack certification, and customer handoff. Our work connects physical infrastructure with distributed orchestration services, enabling GPU capacity to become ready for customer workloads efficiently and reliably.

As an IC3 engineer on the RMC team, you will own the features design, development, andoperate telemetry services supporting data center telemetry, device management, and hardware lifecycle automation. You will build reliable software that provides visibility into power, thermal, cooling, and device health conditions, helping teams detect issues and improve infrastructure readiness.Your work will help reduce manual intervention, improve infrastructure readiness, and increase the speed and predictability of GPU capacity delivery.

As an IC3 engineer, you will independently own defined service components from design through production, collaborate with senior engineers on technical decisions, and deliver secure, scalable solutions supporting data center deployments.

We value clear technical judgment, simple designs, ownership, and collaboration. You will have the opportunity to influence RMC’s technical direction, mentor engineers, and build software with a direct impact on OCI’s AI infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and develop backend services and APIs for collecting, processing, and publishing telemetry from ILOM, Powershelf, PSU, PQM, BMS and related infrastructure devices.

• Build reliable telemetry integrations with monitoring platforms and storage services, including Poseidon.

• Develop device initialization, configuration, certificate provisioning, and certificate rotation workflows.

• Implement device health monitoring and automate device repair workflows.

• Build operational tools, dashboards, and alarms to improve troubleshooting and reduce manual effort.

• Improve service scalability, availability, and performance through load testing, failure handling, and performance tuning.

• Write automated unit and integration tests, review code, and maintain technical documentation and runbooks.

• Troubleshoot production issues and collaborate with infrastructure, security, hardware, and operations teams.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor's or master's degree in computer science or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
• Demonstrated experience developing and maintaining production software, with ownership of service components from design through deployment.
• Strong programming skills in Java, python or a comparable backend language.
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms, object-oriented design, concurrency, and distributed systems fundamentals.
• Experience developing REST APIs, integrating services, and handling asynchronous data processing.
• Working knowledge of relational databases, SQL, data modelling, and query optimization.
• Familiarity with Linux, networking fundamentals, TLS, and certificate-based authentication.
• Experience with automated testing, Git, CI/CD, and production troubleshooting using logs and metrics.
• Ability to translate requirements into maintainable solutions and communicate effectively across global teams.
• Experience designing for fault tolerance, concurrency, state management, and recovery in distributed environments.
• Demonstrated ability to lead complex technical initiatives from requirements and architecture through production delivery.
• Strong troubleshooting and communication skills, with the ability to work independently and across organizational boundaries.
• A record of technical ownership, sound engineering judgment, and mentoring other engineers.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with OCI or another cloud platform, object storage, and infrastructure automation.
• Familiarity with telemetry pipelines, monitoring systems, time-series data, and alerting.
• Experience with hardware management interfaces or protocols such as ILOM, Redfish, gNMI, or MQTT.
• Knowledge of PKI, mutual TLS, and certificate lifecycle management.
• Experience building React and TypeScript interfaces for operational tools.
• Exposure to data center power systems, cooling infrastructure, or hardware repair automation.
