Principal Software Engineer Public Cloud Bristol (or 'remote' from anywhere in the UK available) - NB All staff are operating 100% remote during the pandemic. The Opportunity A unique opportunity to help design, build and operate public cloud services from the ground up, and learn to be a world-class cloud software engineer, right in the heart of Bristol, UK. Oracle's product engineering teams are building critical services within Oracle's next-generation public cloud infrastructure known as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) [0]. These services provide the foundation for businesses around the world as well as Oracle's Cloud (SaaS) Applications. The Platform With revolutionary innovations in performance, availability, ease of use and security, we designed OCI for the reliability, predictability and quality that the world's largest companies and smartest start-ups need. We combined the elasticity and utility of public cloud with the granular control, security, and predictability of on-premises infrastructure. As a result, our customers can run the most demanding workloads, as well as less compute-intensive applications, in a secure and highly available cloud environment. The Products OCI API Gateway is a 24x7 enterprise-grade cloud service running at scale in dozens of commercial, government and private data centres around the world. We built it from the ground up on the OCI Platform, and it is the foundation of Oracle's next-generation API product suite. It serves many diverse customer needs, and we have a long and extensive roadmap of compelling and technically challenging features. OCI Functions is a fully managed, multi-tenant, highly scalable, on-demand, Functions-as-a-Service platform, deployed in dozens of commercial, government and private data centres around the world. The Functions deployment model is extremely flexible, allowing it to support a wide variety of use cases.
