About The Job

This role provide support to core data platforms behind Oracle Health’s Data & Analytics Platform. As a Senior Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), you will own shared, mission-critical systems used by multiple products and teams.

You will work on the design and operation of large-scale, stateful distributed platforms, including Hadoop ecosystem components (HDFS, YARN, HBase) deployed on Oracle Big Data Service (BDS), Kafka, and Storm. These multi-tenant platforms are deployed and operated through Ansible- and Terraform-based automation and require strong architectural ownership to manage scale, change, and broad blast radius.

What You'll Do

• Platform Ownership & Technical Leadership

• Own the end-to-end reliability, scalability, and operability of shared data platforms

• Define platform standards, architectural direction, and operational guardrails

• Influence cross-team technical decisions and long-term platform strategy

• Drive long-term platform evolution and influence reliability strategy across the data ecosystem

• Architecture & Design

• Clearly articulate system behavior, dependencies, and failure modes

• Make principled trade-offs between reliability, performance, cost, and complexity

• Provide guidance and guardrails that enable downstream teams to use platforms safely and effectively

• Operations Engineering

• Establish capacity models, scaling strategies, and operational best practices

• Design platforms that behave predictably under load, failure, and change

• Own platform lifecycle events: upgrades, expansions, decommissioning, and recovery

• Distributed Systems Expertise

• Operate and evolve stateful distributed systems where data placement, replication, and recovery are critical

• Reason about failure modes such as backpressure, rebalancing, region movement, replication lag, and rolling upgrades

• Security

• Operate and maintain Kerberized platforms, including authentication, authorization, and secure service-to-service communication

• Treat security as a first-class architectural concern

• Automation

• Design and evolve an Ansible- and Terraform-driven automation framework

• Treat automation as production software: versioned, reviewed, tested, and improved

• Eliminate operational toil by encoding reliability and safety into the platform

• Incident Leadership & Prevention

• Serve as the ultimate escalation point for complex or ambiguous incidents

• Focus on eliminating entire classes of failure, not just resolving individual issues

• Representation

• Represent SRE and platform engineering in high-visibility and sensitive forums

• Communicate clearly with engineering leadership and partner teams
