Our cloud offers unmatched hyper-scale, multi-tenant services deployed in more than 50 regions worldwide. OCI is expanding its mission beyond the traditional boundaries of public cloud to include dedicated, hybrid and multi cloud, edge computing, and more. 

At Technical Strategy and Oversight (TSO) organization, our mission is to embark on ambitious new initiatives such as building high performance primitives, driving performance and defining the next generation of platform for OCI. 

We are looking for seasoned engineering leaders to bootstrap high performing organizations working on highly ambiguous and ambitious areas.

You know how to wear the hats of an engineering leader, product owner and project manager at the same time and get a lot done daily.
