Description
Job Summary
We are seeking a Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer who is passionate about solving complex engineering problems in distributed systems, virtualized infrastructure, and highly available storage services.
In this hands-on technical role, you will lead the design and development of major components and features within the OCI Block Storage Service. You will architect scalable and elastic distributed systems, optimize critical code and data paths, and design systems that maintain correctness, durability, availability, and performance at hyperscale.
You will also play an significant role in operational excellence by improving observability, diagnosing complex production issues, strengthening security and compliance, driving automation, and mentoring other engineers.
Success in this role requires strong programming fundamentals, deep distributed systems expertise, sound architectural judgment, and the ability to work effectively across both detailed implementation and broad system-level design.

Responsibilities
Key Responsibilities




- Design and architect scalable distributed systems: Lead the design and implementation of major Block Storage components that support horizontal and vertical scaling, elasticity, distributed state management, and large-scale data processing.
- Drive performance and efficiency at scale: Optimize software, data paths, and system interactions for high-throughput, hyperscale workloads; establish scalability requirements and develop appropriate performance and load-testing strategies.
- Engineer highly reliable and durable services: Design fault-tolerant systems using redundancy, replication, synchronization, and automated failover while enabling in-service upgrades and minimizing customer-visible disruption.
- Design for distributed-systems failure modes: Develop systems that behave predictably during network partitions, infrastructure failures, and traffic spikes by applying appropriate consistency and availability mod
