We are looking for a talented engineer to aid in this effort. Major focus areas of software maintained by the team include:

• Creating improved performance and scalability when data is in object store
• Improving user experience for interactions with the Oracle Lakehouse
• Adding AI features for access to the data
• Improved Security for a distributed System
You and members of the team will be called upon to solve many diverse scaling, security, efficiency, and automation problems through robust architectural decisions and customer-first design.
As a world leader in cloud solutions, Oracle uses tomorrow’s technology to tackle today’s challenges. We’ve partnered with industry-leaders in almost every sector—and continue to thrive after 40+ years of change by operating with integrity.
We know that true innovation starts when everyone is empowered to contribute. That’s why we’re committed to growing an inclusive workforce that promotes opportunities for all.
Oracle careers open the door to global opportunities where work-life balance flourishes. We offer competitive benefits based on parity and consistency and support our people with flexible medical, life insurance, and retirement options. We also encourage employees to give back to their communities through our volunteer programs.
