Are you interested in supporting large-scale distributed infrastructure for the cloud? The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) team will give you the opportunity to be part of an organization that supports and operates a suite of massive scale, integrated cloud services in a broadly distributed, multi‑tenant cloud environment. OCI is committed to providing the best in cloud products that meet the needs of our customers who are tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges.

Our mission is to provide our customers with best‑in‑class compute, storage, networking, database, security, and an ever‑expanding set of foundational cloud‑based services.

The OCI Console is the web interface for OCI customers. The mission of our team is to make the UI surfaces within the OCI Console easier to use and extend. We deliver both customer‑facing solutions that bridge the boundaries between services as well as the UI infrastructure that other teams in the broader OCI use to build their own UIs. The team also supports backend development and support of the platform.

As such we operate and support both internal partners and external customers and other service teams across Oracle.

We target candidates in the U.S. who can work onsite in Nashville‑TN (priority) or Austin‑TX (secondary). Relocation assistance is provided. This is not a remote position.

As a member of the software engineering division, you will take an active role in the definition and evolution of standard practices and procedures. You will be responsible for defining and developing software for tasks associated with the developing, designing and debugging of software applications or operating systems. The Principal Engineering role works on UI projects for new features and products the Console organization is building as well as the components that other UX/UI Engineers use to build their own UIs.

As a leading team member you will work with Product/Design during the design phase, author a technical approach, breakdown, refine, and deliver the work with your team. The ideal candidate will be passionate, self‑motivated, able to multitask effectively, and have strong communication skills. This individual will be fairly autonomous and be expected to contribute to a wide range of high‑impact projects across the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console.
