Job description
- Lead architecture, design, and implementation for complex platform services and shared components.
- Own key technical decisions; drive design reviews and ensure solutions meet security, scalability, performance, and operability requirements.
- Establish and improve engineering standards across services (API consistency, test strategy, deployment patterns, observability).
- Mentor engineers through design guidance, code reviews, and technical leadership.
- Drive reliability improvements (SLOs/SLIs, capacity/performance planning, incident analysis, automation).
- Partner with Security/Compliance to ensure secure-by-design implementations and audit readiness.
- Collaborate across organizations to align roadmaps and deliver cross-team platform initiatives.
AI-First Engineering Expectations
- Demonstrate a consistent track record of applying AI-assisted engineering to improve delivery speed and quality across multiple projects (design, implementation, testing, troubleshooting).
- Establish team patterns for AI-assisted development (e.g., test generation strategies, code review checklists for AI-generated changes, documentation/ADR generation) and coach others on effective usage.
- Evaluate AI-assisted approaches with an enterprise mindset: security, privacy, IP, and compliance considerations; ensure usage aligns with company-approved tooling and policies.
- Use AI to enhance operational excellence (e.g., improved incident triage workflows, log/trace analysis approaches, automation of repetitive operational tasks).
Requirements
- BS in Computer Science or related field (or equivalent practical experience).
- 7+ years of professional software development experience.
- Demonstrated experience building and operating distributed services in production.
- Strong system design skills, including data modeling, API design, and performance/reliability tradeoffs.
-
Demonstrated ability to drive technical alignment across teams and deliver results in ambiguous problem spaces.
- Cloud experience preferred (OCI strongly desired; AWS/Azure/GCP acceptable), including containerization and orchestration.
Only Oracle brings together the data, infrastructure, applications, and expertise to power everything from industry innovations to life-saving care. And with AI embedded across our products and services, we help customers turn that promise into a better future for all.
