The cloud is a strategic growth area for Oracle. We are committed to providing our customers with best-in-class cloud services, and with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), we are leading the transformation with our hyper-scale, multi-tenant cloud, which is deployed in more than 35 regions worldwide.
Our Team
The Horizon team hosts the data lakehouse that OCI uses to collate, manage, and make sense of petabytes of engineering data. Our lakehouse is a core component of OCI, a self-service data platform that engineering teams and other internal partners use to inform decisions that affect nearly every aspect of the OCI business: engineering, support, operations, finance, and more.
Some of the main objectives of the Horizon platform are:
- Leverage big data technologies (e.g., Spark) to ingest, clean, and transform data.
- Provide advanced orchestration using a data lake-based approach.
- Manage both batch and real-time Change Data Capture (CDC) scenarios.
- Efficiently load and transform data into a data warehouse (DWH).
- Integrate with Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse, object storage, and Oracle Data Catalog.
- Apply machine learning to generate insights and proactively address issues.
Your Opportunity
Apply your extensive technical expertise and architectural skills to evolve and scale the Horizon platform. You will solve difficult problems in distributed, highly available micro-services and virtualized infrastructure, leveraging DWH, Spark, and ML technologies.
Our Ideal Candidate
We are looking for a strong back-end engineer with a focus on data management, someone with a passion for solving difficult problems in distributed systems and highly available services. This is a critical lead role, so we’re looking for someone who’s a hands-on developer/architect, can manage a team of engineers to deliver product features on time and with high quality, works efficiently with other product groups, and can partner with other engineering leads to ensure that we’re building the right product and services.
