The TribalScale Professional
You thrive in challenging environments where innovation is key. Your passion for technology is matched only by your drive to redefine its limits. You seek more than a job; you seek a calling—a chance to make a lasting impact on the digital landscape.
We are looking for a Cloud Engineer who specializes in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to serve as a technical anchor for our enterprise cloud initiatives. You won't just be managing servers; you will be architecting the resilient, high-performance foundations that power our clients' most critical digital products. You will apply a builder’s mindset to automate infrastructure, optimize distributed systems, and lead the technical direction of OCI deployments.
OCI Architecture: Architect, design, and implement scalable microservices using Spring Boot and Java specifically optimized for the OCI environment.
Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Apply IaC practices (Terraform, OCI Resource Manager) to automate infrastructure provisioning, management, and scaling.
Container Orchestration: Deploy and manage microservices using Docker and OCI Container Engine for Kubernetes (OKE).
Event-Driven Systems: Build and manage event-driven architectures, leveraging OCI Streaming or Apache Kafka.
Performance & Availability: Design and maintain high-performance, low-latency, and high-availability systems with a focus on OCI’s unique regional and AD (Availability Domain) structures.
DevOps Integration: Collaborate with teams to implement CI/CD pipelines using Jenkins, Gradle/Maven, BitBucket, and Ansible.
Security & Observability: Implement proactive monitoring using OCI Monitoring/Logging or tools like Splunk and Dynatrace. Ensure data encryption (PKI, TLS, HTTPS) at rest and in transit.
OCI Certification: Mandatory current Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Certification.
Engineering Rigor: Extensive experience in public cloud environments, with a deep mastery of OCI services (Compute, Storage, Networking, Identity).
Backend Mastery: Proficiency in Java (Spring Boot) and experience with Python and shell scripting for automation.
Distributed Systems: Strong background in microservices architecture, RESTful API development, and messaging frameworks like Apache Kafka.
Data Expertise: Hands-on experience with both SQL and NoSQL database technologies (e.g., OCI Autonomous Database).
Judgment & Communication: Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to explain complex architectural tradeoffs to non-technical stakeholders.
Experience in the media or financial services industry, particularly with high-security or regulatory requirements.
Experience migrating enterprise workloads from on-prem or other cloud providers (GCP/AWS) to OCI.
Empowerment: We believe in giving our team members the autonomy to make impactful decisions.
Growth: You'll work with some of the most talented minds in the industry and have access to continuous learning opportunities.
Inclusion: We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.
