Senior Software Developer

PGX C++ / Distributed Systems Engineer in Oracle Labs

Location: Casablanca, Morocco (onsite work mode) 

Project description

      Oracle Labs Parallel Graph AnalytiX (PGX) is a toolkit for graph analysis – supporting algorithms, such as PageRank, performing SQL-like pattern-matching against graphs, and performing in-depth analysis with graph machine learning. All workloads are parallelized for extreme performance. The PGX toolkit includes both a single-node in-memory engine, and a distributed engine for very large graphs and it is the core graph engine that powers several Oracle products, including extensions to the Oracle Database.

      Graph analysis lets you reveal latent information that is encoded, not as data fields, but as direct and indirect relationships between data elements. This information is typically not obvious to the naked eye, but can have tremendous value once uncovered. Graphs are also a key technology for GenAI workloads, such as Graph RAG that enables more accurate interactions with LLMs.
