Principal Network Developer

About the role

Are you interested in building large-scale distributed networking solutions for the cloud? Do you love the idea of working in an environment with the excitement of a start-up, but the financial backing of a Fortune 100 company? You’ll be joining a fast-growing venture that offers a ton of autonomy and a lot of variety. This role offers huge upside potential, high visibility, and fast career growth without the risks of a typical start-up.

This is a unique opportunity to work with smart people to solve complex problems in distributed systems, networking, multi-tenant Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), and Software Defined Networking (SDN) operating at massive scale. Customers want higher availability, more throughput, better security, lower latency, reduced jitter, and lower overall cost. We help Oracle build the best-in-class cloud offering by providing the physical infrastructure and software to test and qualify networking hardware, configuration, design, and tooling.

We build labs and tools to test physical hardware and simulate large-scale networks and designs. We own top-level network integration testing ensuring our network comes together flawlessly and performs as designed.
