We are seeking an experienced Network Development Leader to lead a high-performing engineering team responsible for the end-to-end lifecycle of network products spanning Ethernet switches, routers, optical systems, and custom ASIC-based platforms. This leader will guide the team through product definition, architecture, design, validation, deployment readiness, and lifecycle management while ensuring products meet OCI’s demanding standards for scale, reliability, performance, and operational excellence.
The ideal candidate combines deep networking expertise with exceptional leadership and cross-functional execution skills. They have extensive experience partnering with networking silicon vendors, OEMs, ODMs, and optical manufacturers to influence product roadmaps, resolve technical challenges, and drive delivery of platforms aligned with OCI’s long-term infrastructure strategy.
