Google posted a job you might be interested in



Google



Infrastructure, Hyperion DBA

San Francisco Bay Area, US - Information Services, Internet

As a Software Engineer working on Google's critical production applications and infrastructure, your mission will be to ensure Google is always fast, available, scalable and engineered to withstand unparalleled demand. You will be in the thick of solving the [often unexpected] problems of systems at scale in a way most engineers never experience.



Your scope is from the kernel level to the continent level. This position requires the flexibility and aptitude to zoom in to fine-grained detail, and the agility to zoom right back out and up the stack. Delve into how software performs, packets flow, and hardware and code interact, in support of managing services, steering global traffic and predicting and preventing failures.... all in a day's work.



You will design and develop systems to run Google Search, Gmail, YouTube, Maps, Voice, AppEngine, and more. You'll manage, automate, and make data- based decisions and judgment calls which influence globally distributed applications. You'll own the production services which comprise *.google.com, and critical infrastructure like GFS, BigTable, MapReduce and large- scale 'cloud computing' clusters.



You will also be driving performance and reliability from software and infrastructure at massive scale -- where dealing in petabytes and gigabits and shifting by orders of magnitude is routine. You will tackle challenging, novel situations every day and work with just about every other engineering and operations team at Google. You will be looked upon as an expert and advocate to fellow engineers on making design and reliability trade-offs in running large- scale services and engineering complex systems that fail gracefully and transparently to users.



As a successful candidate for this role you will have strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, fluency in coding and systems design, solid communication skills and a desire to tackle the complex problems of scale which are uniquely Google. We are particularly interested in software engineers familiar with aspects of running web services at scale -- depth in either networking technologies and Unix system calls are strong pluses.

  • Keep abreast of developments and best practices in the industry and strive to beat them. Work with vendors to identify and implement latest features, patches, etc.

  • Perform operational duties including installation, patching, service turn-up/ down, environment cloning, password rotations, implementing backup/recovery and monitoring procedures, capacity planning and site failover/switchover.





  • Minimum qualifications

  • Experience in Oracle Database and WebLogic administration.

  • Experience in deploying and administering one or more of OBIEE, ODI and OBIA.

  • Experience with automation of operational activities: installation, patching, service turn-up/ down, environment cloning, password rotations, implementing backup/recovery and monitoring procedures, capacity planning, site failover/switchover.





  • Preferred qualifications
