CGG is a pioneering Technology company providing fully integrated Geoscience services within the global Energy sector. We deliver a unique range of technologies, services, and equipment designed to understand and address the world’s complex natural resource, environmental, and infrastructure challenges.

Be part of the database team setting the global standards for data solutions! Seismic imaging requires sophisticated systems for managing high-performance computing resources and large volumes of data. In this role, you will design, develop, and maintain existing and next-generation systems that make heavy use of Oracle object-relational database technology to support large, distributed databases. Of particular emphasis is the scalability of the systems in light of anticipated changes in the volume of seismic data processed and the related computational demands of seismic imaging. 

This role will afford you the opportunity to work as part of a geographically dispersed team to engineer and develop terabyte-scale systems. You will partner with our agile teams focused on HPC infrastructure and algorithm development to design and support the high-end applications of seismic imaging computing at CGG worldwide. This position demands excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, and applicants must be able to communicate clearly and effectively. You should be a person with great technical passion and drive for high-quality results.
