Principal Network Reliability Engineer

The NRE (Network Reliability Engineering) team is accountable for ensuring the robustness of the Oracle Cloud Network Infrastructure. A Network Reliability Engineer (NRE) role is primarily

focused on applying an engineering approach to measure and automate a network's reliability to align with Organization's service-level objectives, agreements, and goals. The duties of the

NRE team entail promptly responding to network disruptions, pinpointing the underlying cause, and collaborating with internal and external stakeholders to fully restore functionality. The NRE

team members play a critical role in automation of recurring tasks in daily operations to streamline processes, enhance workflow efficiency, and increase overall productivity. As OCI is a cloud-based network with a global footprint, this support will include hundreds of thousands of network devices supporting millions of servers, connected over a mix of dedicated backbone

infrastructure,CLoSNetwork, and the Internet. Some of the responsibilities include designing, writing, and deploying network monitoring and automation software, to improve the availability, scalability, and efficiency of Oracle products and services.
