Principal Software Engineer

Imagine the usage data records collected by your local electricity utility. Let’s increase the complexity to collect such usage records for 100 different resource types across 1000s of customers, millions of resource instances with greatest accuracy and lowest possible delay. We the OCI-metering are taking on this problem. We are building a big data pipeline to aggregate resource usage for billing our customers. Our goal is to have delay of few seconds from the point a resource instance is created to the point when a customer can view the usage/billing in their respective dashboard.
