Principal Sr Principal Hardware Developer

Network Hardware Engineers support the design, deployment, and operations of 
a large-scale global Oracle cloud computing environment (Oracle Cloud 
Infrastructure - OCI). Primarily focused on developing and deploying the 
physical rack layouts, cabling design, and Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications.

Pluggable Optics engineers are responsible for driving the test/qualification of the
physical components deployed by Pluggable Optics Engineering and the 
product lifecycle management in the pluggable optics space. We are looking for 
engineers with a unique background covering numerous areas of network 
hardware engineering, including cabling, low-level device performance, thermals, 
etc.  As OCI is a cloud-based network with a global footprint, this support will 
include hundreds of thousands of network devices supporting millions of servers, 
connected over a mix of dedicated backbone infrastructure and the Internet.

Lead the standardization of our rack SKUs and the buildout of a standardized 
cabling solution by defining high-level objectives and delivery procedures.  
Organizes project technical landmarks & supporting tasks.  Worked as project 
technical lead, coordinating the efforts of several engineers across multiple teams in 
the organization.  Advises project/program manager and coordinates with 
immediate and skip-level leadership. Collaborates across teams within the same org 
(same VP) and outside of the org.  Serve as technical SME in multi-functional 
activities.  Has technical responsibility for complex project(s), including project 
requirements, specifications (where applicable), and documentation. Responsible 
for decomposing high-level architectures into detailed designs. Ability to lead 
multiple engineers in developing network solutions consisting of multiple modules 
with complex interactions; Work with supporting service teams to ensure solutions 
are adequately supported by monitoring and automation systems. Serves specialized 
escalation for all physical design and cabling issues within networking.   Serves as 
the principal point of contact for driving systematic resolution of complex network 
design issues. Please take a look at current and future cabling and optical standards, cable 
plant design, rack structural calculations, and rack integration best practices. 
Provides a broad set of guidance to technical and senior technical members of 
staff.  Interprets guidance from leaders (technical and managers) and offers focused development for junior members.  Able to carry out technical coaching 
sessions, and helps junior members develop skills. Collaborates with vendor 
engineering and account manager to address current business or operational 
issues. Participates in the development of RFQ/RFPs.  This may lead to the adoption of 
new vendor hardware.  Active communication with product teams.  

Responsible for driving technology to meet product and service requirements.  Participate in 
coordinated communication with product teams, networking leadership, and PMO 
to help assess gaps, solutions, and needs.

Career Level - IC5 Providing technical leadership for designing, developing, 
modifying, and evaluating electronic, electro-mechanical, or mechanical 
components, assemblies, or integrated circuitry for hardware systems for the 
external market. This includes new designs and modification activities that result
in significant product enhancement. Activities encompass design, analysis, testing 
, and process development using engineering principles and methods. Technical 
subject areas may include electrical and logical design of printed circuit boards or 
integrated circuits, mechanical design of electronics enclosures or integrated 
circuit packaging, and embedded software/firmware design.
