Principal Systems Architect – Networking, AI & Streaming Platforms

Oracle Oracle · Enterprise · Redwood City, CA +1

This role focuses on designing and implementing AI/agentic frameworks and workflows to enhance developer productivity, particularly for large codebases, alongside networking and streaming analytics infrastructure within Oracle Database.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own key components of the Oracle Database VOS stack in your area(s) of focus, delivering end-to-end ownership from concept and design through implementation, testing, release, and production support.
  2. Drive architecture and technical direction for new and evolving services used by multiple database subsystems, balancing specificity for immediate needs with generality and reuse across a broader class of problems.
  3. Build and evolve networking and distributed systems infrastructure, including TCP/IP and HTTP/REST-based services and protocols, with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and operability.
  4. Design and implement AI/agentic frameworks and workflows that improve developer productivity, including LLM-assisted code comprehension and generation, and scalable approaches for operating on large, complex codebases.
  5. Contribute to streaming and analytics enablement, including Kafka-oriented streaming integrations and Apache Arrow-based analytics (DataFrames, Arrow Flight, Arrow Flight SQL) to support next-generation observability and data workflows.
