Software Developer 3

Are you passionate about designing robust storage solutions for the cloud? Join Oracle’s Cloud Infrastructure team and play a key role in developing highly available, large-scale Block Storage services that are essential for mission-critical workloads—including state-of-the-art AI and machine learning applications. 

As part of our team, you’ll work in a broadly distributed, multi-tenant cloud environment to deliver best-in-class storage solutions that power compute, networking, database, and security services. We seek hands-on engineers with expertise in distributed systems, virtualized infrastructure, and scalable Block Storage design. Help us shape the future of cloud storage, supporting global enterprises as they accelerate digital transformation and next-generation AI/ML initiatives. 

 

As a Senior Member of Technical Staff, you will own end-to-end software design and development for major components of Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure, with a strong focus on highly available Block Storage services. In this role, you will develop scalable solutions that serve mission-critical cloud workloads, including advanced AI and machine learning applications. 

You should be both a rock-solid coder and a distributed systems generalist, with hands-on experience in designing large-scale distributed systems that can elastically scale. You must be comfortable diving deep into any part of the stack and low-level systems, as well as designing broad distributed system interactions. You should value simplicity and scalability, work comfortably in a collaborative, agile environment, and be excited to continuously learn. 

Minimum Qualifications: 

• 4+ years of experience delivering and operating large-scale, highly available distributed systems, with a focus on block storage solutions that power demanding cloud workloads—including AI and machine learning applications. 
• Strong knowledge of C++ and/or Java, and experience with scripting languages such as Python, etc. 
• Strong knowledge of data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and distributed systems fundamentals.
• Working familiarity with NVMe, NVMe over Fabrics, SPDK, storage virtualization, and iSCSI is highly desired, especially in optimizing block storage for high-performance environments supporting AI/ML workloads.
• Working familiarity with networking protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP) and standard network architectures. 
• Strong understanding of block storage systems, NoSQL systems, and distributed persistence technologies, with an emphasis on scalability and reliability for modern enterprise and AI/ML use cases. 
• Strong troubleshooting and performance tuning skills in distributed environments. 
• Experience building multi-tenant, virtualized storage infrastructure using modern C++ is a strong plus, particularly for applications serving high-throughput AI and machine learning workloads.
