Principal DevOps Engineer - Autonomous Database

 About The Role : 

Are you looking to apply your skills contributing to a next generation of Database cloud services? Are you calm and collected when others panic under pressure? Do you get a thrill from solving really tough problems? Do you light up in conversations about uptime, horizontal scalability, performance, security, and DevOps?

The Autonomous Database Team is responsible for building the cloud service framework powering various Oracle Autonomous Database cloud services, including Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW) and Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP). The framework automates deployment, scaling and management of databases in the cloud. It is built on top of Oracle's Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Layer.

The autonomous database cloud service framework features APIs to handle all lifecycle management operations of databases. It also performs operations autonomously based on internal and external events. The team has the unique opportunity to make significant contributions to the full stack of Oracle technology, from database kernel to cloud service platform and to customer-facing portals.

As a DevOps Engineer, you will be responsible for defining and deploying autonomous database services with deep focus on architecture, production operations, capacity planning, performance management, deployment, and release engineering. You will work with multiple cross-functional teams helping deliver new and outstanding experiences to our stakeholders while ensuring reliability and performance.

We are a dynamic and enthusiastic team with great emphasis on go-getters and proactive individuals.
