Senior Manager, Platform Software Engineering

Job Description

Oracle is building the cloud foundation for Oracle's SaaS businesses. The Oracle SaaS Spectra Platform (Spectra Platform) is a large-scale, multi-tenant platform, native to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), that helps Oracle SaaS teams run cloud-native services on OCI and Kubernetes.

We are seeking a Senior Manager, Platform Software Engineering to manage and develop engineering teams building the control-plane services and foundational Kubernetes infrastructure behind Spectra Platform. These teams own the services that provision and operate customer environments, deploy workloads, manage secrets and environment metadata, and provide the networking, ingress, service mesh, certificate management, private connectivity, and policy enforcement needed to run SaaS workloads securely at scale.

This is a senior engineering leadership role for someone who enjoys developing teams while staying close to deep technical systems work. You will hire, coach, set direction, grow engineering leaders and senior engineers, guide architecture, manage execution, and partner across OCI, Oracle SaaS, security, site reliability engineering, and product teams to deliver platform services that developers trust and production customers depend on.

Responsibilities

• Lead and grow engineering teams building high-scale platform services for Oracle SaaS on OCI and Kubernetes.

• Establish clear service ownership for each team, including APIs, architecture, production readiness, operations, on-call health, customer support, and long-term technical direction.

• Own delivery and operations for control-plane services that provision environments, deploy workloads, manage metadata and secrets, and automate lifecycle operations.

• Own foundational Kubernetes services for networking, ingress, service mesh, private connectivity, certificate management, and admission-control policy enforcement.

• Set technical direction with architects and senior engineers, balancing reliability, security, scalability, operability, and delivery speed.

• Drive planning, backlog management, architecture reviews, execution, and release readiness for multiple high-priority platform initiatives.

• Build a strong service-ownership culture around observability, runbooks, incident response, on-call quality, root-cause analysis, customer impact, and durable production fixes.

• Model responsible use of approved AI-assisted tools in day-to-day leadership work, and encourage engineers to use them to improve design, coding, testing, debugging, documentation, and operations.

• Partner with OCI service teams, Oracle SaaS teams, security, site reliability engineering, product management, and release automation to deliver cross-organizational programs.

• Hire, coach, and develop managers and engineers; create clear expectations, feedback loops, career growth, and succession plans.

• Communicate strategy, status, tradeoffs, and risks clearly to senior engineering leaders, partner teams, and platform customers.
