Job Information
Oracle Senior Principal Software Engineer in Charleston, West Virginia
Job Description
Fusion Applications (FA) is Oracle's leading SaaS offering of several critical business applications like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Human Capital Management (HCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and many more. The enterprise grade application suite serves as one of the focal points of Oracle's business value.
While Fusion Applications has been a huge success, the basic architecture is based on an on-premise, Fusion Middleware stack that has not changed since its inception. We are the Fusion Applications Technical Architecture team and have been tasked with defining the next generation architecture (codename Spectra) based on cloud native principles running in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The migration from a monolith to a modern cloud based micro-service architecture opens new avenues to work with a wide range of state-of-the-art technologies and OCI services. It will also mean instituting better processes and practices as we transform to software as a service development model that includes following industry standard developer workflows, CICD pipelines, safe deployment practices, cloud based automated testing, DevOps culture, etc.
For this new Spectra architecture, we're building a new policy management and authorization cloud native service. As you can imagine, this authorization service will be a critical part of hundreds of other services, helping to manage policies and make authorization decisions. This is a startup team and comes with a service ownership role that is hands-on, with lots of opportunity for large contributions and impact across the organization. At this stage, we're looking for a highly passionate, talented and hands-on technical leader to join us and be at the driving seat of our engineering team. This is a security product and we're looking for someone who has a good grasp on security concepts and preferably who has experience working in that domain. The new leader will be shepherding and mentoring the engineers while making architectural and technical design decisions. As with most service teams, there is a periodic on call rotation as part of this role. The hands-on engineering lead will be participating in the rotation and will be upleveling the operational practices and build any necessary automation to reduce operational toil.
