Principal Software Engineer, Cloud Performance

This position is based onsite in Nashville, TN. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) delivers mission-critical applications for top tier enterprises around the world. OCI provides unmatched hyper-scale, multi-tenant services deployed in more than 50 regions. OCI is expanding to include dedicated, hybrid and multi cloud, edge computing, and more. At Technical Strategy and Oversight (TSO), our mission is to support customer choice, transparency, and value in cloud infrastructure. We are building new platforms, high-performance primitives, frameworks for OCI developers, and a new container runtime to support our services, including high-performance, high-availability workloads. We are developing core components for data planes, a remote persistent storage solution with latency comparable to local NVMe, and standards to identify critical performance improvements across OCI data-planes. We aim to enhance engineering efficiency by focusing on low-level, high-performance systems adopted by core OCI services. We are seeking a skilled Software Engineer to join our newly established Cloud Performance Organization. This team helps address service inefficiencies, reduce cloud expenses, improve customer experience, and ensure scalability. Your work will focus on optimizing the performance of OCI’s critical components, internal tools, and applications, while fostering a culture of performance engineering. This is a greenfield opportunity to design and build new cloud services from the ground up. We are growing fast and at an early stage, and you will be part of a diverse, motivated team with autonomy and support to do your best work in a dynamic and flexible environment. Who are we looking for? You have experience designing major features and launching them into production. You’ve built and operated high-scale public cloud services and have a deep understanding of control plane architecture. You work independently on most projects and provide technical leadership to development teams. In this role, you will enable development teams by driving design of major service components, collaborating with engineering managers and TPMs, and mentoring junior team members. You will range from high-level system design and architectural documentation to hands-on prototyping, code reviews, and project bootstrapping. You are technically strong, able to balance speed and quality, and motivated to improve processes and services through automation and instrumentation. You understand operational excellence and foster a culture of high quality and customer focus. Responsibilities

Evaluate the performance of cloud services, identify inefficiencies, and design cost-effective solutions. Analyze and optimize internal tools, processes, and developer workflows to enhance operational efficiency. Benchmark OCI services against competitors and identify performance improvement opportunities. Collaborate with service teams to integrate performance evaluation tools into CI/CD pipelines. Quantify and communicate the financial impact of inefficiencies, linking performance data to business metrics. Develop and implement improvements in shared components, libraries, and runtime configurations (e.g., Java runtime, SDKs, and images). Qualifications

5 to 10 years distributed service engineering experience in a software development environment Development experience in a modern programming language, such as Java, C++, C# Hands-on experience designing, developing, and operating public cloud service control or data planes Hands-on experience in software performance profiling, analysis, and optimization Deep understanding of object-oriented design and SDK development, specifically within a cloud environment Experience working closely with architects, principals, product, and program managers to deliver product features on time and with high quality Good knowledge of data structures, algorithms, operating systems, and distributed systems fundamentals Working familiarity with networking protocols (TCP/IP, HTTP) and standard network architectures Good understanding of databases, NoSQL systems, storage, and distributed persistence technologies Good understanding of Linux administration and networking stack configuration Demonstrable technical leadership and mentorship skills Familiarity with JVM and benchmarking tools Preferred Qualifications

BS degree in Computer Science or related field (MS preferred) Hands-on experience developing services on a public cloud platform (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) Experience driving security reviews, documentation, UX reviews, and working with Product Managers from inception through launch Building continuous integration/deployment pipelines with robust testing and deployment schedules Proven experience in performance optimization of cloud infrastructure and distributed systems About Us
