✨ AI Summary
The Lead Principal Core Infrastructure Engineer will mentor engineering teams and lead the architecture of scalable, resilient physical security platforms and applications on OCI. This role involves defining performance, availability, and data-retention requirements, removing bottlenecks in real-time pipelines, and designing fault-tolerant systems. The engineer will establish SLOs, KPIs, and incident-response practices, while also architecting advanced identity, authorization, and security controls. Responsibilities include driving infrastructure-as-code and automated deployment strategies for safe provisioning, patching, and upgrades across cloud and edge environments. The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in designing and operating large-scale, distributed, cloud-native software platforms, with strong knowledge of system architecture, networking, high availability, and disaster recovery. Expertise in cloud security, identity and access management, and infrastructure as code is crucial. A Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience, is required. Preferred qualifications include experience with OCI services, physical security systems, and relevant protocols.
