hackajob is collaborating with Oracle to connect them with exceptional professionals for this role.
Description
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) delivers mission-critical applications for leading enterprises worldwide. Our cloud offers hyperscale, multi-tenant services deployed across more than 50 regions globally. OCI continues to expand beyond traditional public-cloud boundaries to support dedicated, hybrid, and multicloud solutions, edge computing, and more.
As a Principal Platform Software Engineer, you will shape the platform foundations that allow OCI services and their consumers to work together reliably at scale. You will lead cross-team initiatives involving APIs, middleware, runtimes, integration frameworks, and developer tooling—setting technical direction while delivering durable solutions that improve consistency, compatibility, and developer experience.
This position is office-based and requires onsite presence in Nashville, Tennessee. Relocation assistance may be available in accordance with Oracle's relocation policies.
Responsibilities
What You'll Do
* Lead the design, development, and evolution of backend platform services, APIs, middleware, runtimes, and integration frameworks used across OCI.
* Define and drive API versioning, lifecycle, deprecation, and safe-rollout strategies that protect downstream consumers.
* Establish reusable patterns for interoperability, multi-tenant scale, resilience, and secure software development across multiple services.
* Drive shared observability practices, including service-level objectives, error budgets, monitoring, and capacity planning.
* Diagnose and resolve complex cross-service issues; lead durable remediation and compatibility-safe migration plans.
* Influence architecture and technical decisions across teams through design reviews, code reviews, technical guidance, and hands-on engineering.
* Create migration guides, adoption playbooks, documentation, and examples that make platform capabilities straightforward to adopt.
* Mentor engineers and raise the quality of designs, code, operational practices, and technical decision-making across the organization.
What You'll Bring
* Bachelor's or master's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
* 7+ years of professional software-engineering experience, with demonstrated impact on backend, platform, or cloud services.
* Strong experience designing highly available, scalable distributed systems and evolving production APIs or platform interfaces.
* Proficiency in one or more object-oriented or systems programming languages, such as Java, C++, C#, or Go.
* Deep understanding of distributed-systems fundamentals, object-oriented design, data structures, algorithms, and secure software-development practices.
* Demonstrated experience leading or influencing architecture and technical design across teams.
* Strong judgment in ambiguous environments, a high degree of ownership, and clear written and verbal communication skills.
Preferred Qualifications
* Experience with microservices, SDKs, RESTful APIs, containers, cloud-native deployments, or developer-platform products.
* Experience defining or operating SLOs, error budgets, observability standards, and capacity plans.
* Experience with API interoperability, backward compatibility, migrations, or platform-adoption programs.
* Experience mentoring engineers and improving engineering practices across multiple teams
