Oracle OCI Lead Engineer

In this hands-on role, you will work directly with clients to understand infrastructure requirements, deliver technical solutions, troubleshoot issues, and provide clear documentation and knowledge transfer. The focus is on OCI engineering and client delivery rather than team management or commercial strategy.

• Implement and configure OCI compute, storage, networking, and database infrastructure to meet client requirements for availability, disaster recovery, and security.
• Work with client stakeholders to gather technical requirements, assess existing environments, and translate agreed requirements into OCI configurations and implementation tasks.
• Deliver consulting engagements through implementation, configuration validation, testing, documentation, and handover to client operations teams.
• Troubleshoot OCI infrastructure incidents, investigate root causes, implement corrective actions, and communicate progress and risks to clients.
• Monitor cloud usage and spending, identify optimization opportunities, and implement agreed changes to improve cost efficiency.
• Monitor infrastructure health, tune performance, and support capacity planning, backup, and disaster recovery testing.
• Apply agreed security controls, including identity and access management (IAM) and encryption, and support client compliance requirements.
• Maintain technical designs, configuration records, operational runbooks, and usage and performance reports; provide knowledge transfer to client teams.
• Demonstrated hands-on experience as a cloud infrastructure or systems engineer, with practical experience implementing and supporting OCI environments.
• Strong technical skills across OCI compute, storage, networking, database services, and monitoring and management tools.
• Working knowledge of cloud security, including IAM, encryption, and compliance requirements, together with high availability, backup, and disaster recovery practices.
• Client-facing consulting experience delivering infrastructure solutions, from requirements gathering and implementation through testing and operational handover.
• Strong troubleshooting, technical documentation, and communication skills, with the ability to explain technical issues to non-technical stakeholders and manage priorities across client engagements.
