Responsibilities
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is looking for a Senior Manager of Software Development to lead engineering teams building and operating OCI Build, a critical part of OCI's internal software delivery platform.
OCI Build enables engineering teams across OCI to securely and reliably turn source code into deployable artifacts. The platform supports large-scale build execution and integrates with OCI's source control, CI/CD pipelines, artifact repositories, security systems, and developer tooling.
This is a hands-on engineering leadership role for someone who enjoys building strong teams, solving distributed-systems problems, and improving how developers build and ship software at cloud scale.
What You'll Do
- Lead and grow engineering teams responsible for OCI Build services and infrastructure.
- Own the architecture, delivery, reliability, security, and operational health of critical build-platform components.
- Set technical direction and work closely with senior engineers on distributed systems, build execution, orchestration, scalability, and performance.
- Improve build speed, reliability, capacity, observability, and developer experience.
- Drive security and software supply-chain improvements across build execution, dependencies, secrets, and artifact publishing.
- Partner with OCI engineering teams to understand build and CI/CD needs, resolve systemic issues, and prioritize platform improvements.
- Build a strong operational culture through automation, monitoring, incident management, root-cause analysis, and continuous improvement.
- Develop engineers and managers through clear expectations, coaching, feedback, and meaningful ownership.
- Hire and retain a diverse team and create an environment where people with different backgrounds and perspectives can do their best work.
- Work across OCI organizations to define priorities and deliver multi-team initiatives.
What We're Looking For
- Experience leading software engineering teams responsible for production systems.
- Strong technical foundation in distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, developer platforms, CI/CD, or related areas.
- Experience designing and operating highly available, scalable services.
- Ability to work effectively with senior engineers on architecture and complex technical decisions.
- Strong engineering judgment around reliability, security, operational excellence, and long-term maintainability.
- Demonstrated ability to develop people, build healthy teams, and deliver through others.
- Clear communication and ability to collaborate across organizational boundaries.
Experience with build systems, Kubernetes, containerized workloads, artifact management, software supply-chain security, or large-scale developer infrastructure is valuable, but you do not need experience with every technology we use to be successful in this role.
