Senior Core Infrastructure Software Engineer

** Job Description*
* The Senior Core Infrastructure Software Engineer is a Senior experienced, hands-on software engineer  role responsible for designing, building, and operating next-generation AI systems on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This person will work on building production-grade cloud distributed systems, agentic AI platforms, autonomous workflows, scalable inference infrastructure, and enterprise AI applications used in large-scale, business-critical environments.

This role owns moderately complex components within OCI Cloud platform services or SDKs; leads team-level improvements to integration frameworks and developer tooling. Performs deep debugging across a bounded set of distributed services, driving fixes that protect downstream consumers and upgrade paths. Analyzes usage, performance, and error budgets for specific platform surfaces; implements targeted resilience and capacity optimizations. Authors and curates team-scoped documentation, samples, and adoption guidance.

The ideal candidate combines deep distributed systems experience with practical AI-native engineering.

*
* * Implements and contributes to the development for components of distributed systems that support horizontal and vertical scaling including leveraging distributed state management tools.

* Design, implement, and deliver scalable agentic AI systems capable of reasoning, planning, tool use, workflow execution, multi-step task orchestration, and safe human-in-the-loop escalation.

* Implement scalability, performance, availability, and durability requirements for owned services and components.

* Designs and implements functional requirements and testing for assigned features within an existing system

* Optimize services for high-throughput, low-latency, and large-scale cloud workloads.

* Implement systems that handle network unreliability, service disruptions, and partition scenarios while meeting SLOs.

* Establish telemetry, KPIs, dashboards, and alerts to monitor service health, performance, reliability, and customer impact.

* Drive performance testing, load testing, fault injection, brownout testing, and other validation strategies to ensure correctness and resiliency.

* Implement secure infrastructure controls for multi-tenant cloud environments, including access controls, encryption, and remediation of security gaps.

* Develop automation, Infrastructure as Code, and deployment tooling to support safe patching, updates, rollbacks, and operational recovery.

* Designs and implements automation scripts and tooling used to troubleshoot operational issues.

* Take ownership of production operations, including troubleshooting, incident response, root cause analysis, and ongoing service improvements.

* Adheres to change management plans for patching, updating, and rolling back applications.

* Strengthen operational readiness by improving runbooks, monitoring, change management, deployment safety, and recovery processes.

* Applies advanced security measures to protect data and applications in multi-tenant environments, including encryption and access controls.

* Collaborates with the team to ensure cloud infrastructure complies with relevant industry standards and regulations and that documentation is up-to-date

* * Bachelor's, Master's, or Ph.D. in Computer Science, AI/ML, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

* 3-7+ years of professional software engineering experience

* Experience in designing and developing high-scale distributed systems, cloud services, infrastructure platforms, or AI/ML platform services.

* Strong programming skills in Java or Golang or Python and ability to contribute high-quality production code, reviews, tests, and debugging in complex distributed environments.

* Strong expertise with Kubernetes, Docker, cloud-native infrastructure, service-to-service communication, scalability, fault tolerance, observability, and performance analysis.

* Agile Methodologies:
Demonstrated ability to use agile methodologies to drive continuous improvement and product delivery

* Excellent written and verbal communication

*
* Preferred Qualifications:

*
* * Experience with large scale cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google, Oracle Cloud).

* Practical experience with orchestration frameworks such as Lang Graph, Lang Chain, CrewAI, Auto Gen, Llama Index, or similar ecosystems.

* Understanding of LLM application patterns, including prompt design, structured outputs, function/tool calling, context management, RAG, memory, tool safety, and evaluation.

* Experience using AI-assisted software development tools such as Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or similar systems in large-scale engineering environments
