Job Description

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, OCI, is building and operating a global-scale cloud network that supports enterprise, government, AI, and cloud-native workloads. OCI’s global network provides the foundation for customer connectivity, regional expansion, inter-region traffic, Internet edge connectivity, and backbone transport across Oracle’s cloud footprint.

The Global Network Engineering Service Engineering team is responsible for developing, implementing, and operating OCI’s Internet and Backbone Services. These services include backbone routing, Internet edge connectivity, BGP policy, traffic engineering, monitoring, network security controls, service automation, operational tooling, and new network service capabilities.

We are seeking a Network Engineering Director to lead a team responsible for the engineering and operation of production network services across OCI’s Internet and Backbone infrastructure. This leader will manage engineers working across routing design, BGP policy, Internet and backbone service implementation, operational monitoring, service reliability, network security, automation, feature delivery, lifecycle management, and incident response.

This is a senior technical leadership role that requires strong network engineering depth, sound operational judgment, and experience leading teams that operate large-scale production networks. The successful candidate will set technical direction, improve operational mechanisms, lead service delivery, and drive measurable improvements in reliability, security, monitoring, automation, and operational efficiency.

The ideal candidate understands how global networks behave under scale, failure, change, and rapid customer growth. They will be comfortable reviewing routing and service designs, participating in production escalations, making risk-based decisions, and building teams that deliver reliable network services at cloud scale.

Responsibilities

As a Network Engineering Director in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s Global Network Engineering organization, you will apply your extensive knowledge of large-scale IP networking, Internet edge services, backbone routing, BGP policy, traffic engineering, network security, monitoring, automation, and production operations to manage the engineering and operation of OCI’s Internet and Backbone Services.

You will lead a team responsible for developing, implementing, and operating highly available network services that support OCI’s global backbone, Internet connectivity, customer traffic, inter-region connectivity, and continued cloud expansion. You will set technical direction for routing design, service architecture, operational standards, monitoring strategy, change safety, and service reliability.

You will drive enhancements to existing network service architectures and envision future improvements in routing control, traffic engineering, telemetry, automation, network security, and operational efficiency. You will partner across architecture, operations, software engineering, security, capacity planning, and regional infrastructure teams to deliver scalable, secure, and reliable network services. You will use SDN and network control-plane capabilities where appropriate to improve consistency, validation, remediation, and operational safety.
