About this role

Location : Nashville, TN — onsite 5 days/week. Relocation assistance is available; this is not a remote position.

The OCI Product Catalog team builds platform services that define and manage OCI products and their associated metadata, including integrations with SKUs, metering, limits, product availability, and lifecycle management.

The team is building a centralized product model and automation platform that enables OCI service teams to onboard, deploy, and manage products consistently across cloud environments while providing centralized control over product availability.

We are looking for a Senior Core Infrastructure Engineer (IC3) with strong full-stack development experience to help design, build, and operate OCI Product Catalog.

This is a hands-on engineering role spanning distributed backend services, APIs, automation, and web-based operator experiences. The engineer will own features end to end, from technical design and implementation through testing, deployment, observability, and production operation.

Designs, implements, and optimizes components in distributed systems with an emphasis on scalability, resiliency, and operability. Delivers features and load/performance tests; leverages data plane platforms and distributed state tools for high-volume retrieval, storage, and processing; and reviews peers' implementations for scalability compliance. Builds fault-tolerant paths (redundancy, replication, automatic failover), applies recovery‑oriented principles, and implements retries, circuit breakers, and timeouts. Proactively detects and mitigates issues via tests, alarms, dashboards, and telemetry; authors runbooks and participates in incident response and RCAs. Implements standard replication and synchronization, develops automation/IaC for troubleshooting and maintenance, and applies advanced security controls (encryption, access, remediation) while ensuring change, compliance, and documentation standards are met.
