About the role

Shepherd is OCI's cloud-scale release orchestration platform, enabling the safe and reliable deployment of software, infrastructure, and configuration changes across regions, realms, and critical cloud services. As OCI continues to expand into sovereign, regulated, and large-scale deployment environments, Shepherd is evolving into a resilient orchestration control plane for cloud-scale change.

We are seeking a Lead Principal Platform Software Engineer to lead the evolution of Shepherd's architecture and engineering practices. This hands-on technical leadership role requires deep expertise in distributed systems, cloud platform architecture, deployment orchestration, and operational excellence. The successful candidate will drive architectural direction, deliver foundational software, lead complex cross-team initiatives, and establish engineering standards that improve reliability, maintainability, and developer productivity.
