As a Principal Software Engineer at Oracle, you will operate with high independence and provide deep technical leadership across the organization. You'll work on OCI Email Delivery, a globally distributed, highly available service that sends high-volume transactional and marketing emails. You'll be designing, building, and operating cloud-scale services that are resilient, performant, and maintainable.
The role involves solving complex problems at global scale, influencing architecture and product direction, and mentoring both junior and senior engineers. You'll work with complex systems facing real-world challenges including backpressure, noisy neighbors, spamming attacks, extensibility, and elastic scaling.
You'll need to balance delivery speed with long-term quality, drive iterative improvements, instill operational excellence, and use data to guide technical decisions. The position requires strong engineering fundamentals and thriving in high-scale environments.
This is a key technical leadership role where you'll be responsible for setting best practices, mentoring others, and making significant architectural decisions that impact Oracle's cloud infrastructure.
