Job Information
Oracle Principal Member of Technical Staff - Backend in Topeka, Kansas
Job Description
Fusion Applications (FA) is Oracle's leading SaaS offering of critical business applications, such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Human Capital Management (HCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), and 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 stayed the same 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 for working 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 the new Spectra Service, every implementation detail is crucial. As we strive to service the UIs for all Oracle SaaS, the role of the principal member of the technical staff is pivotal. Their contribution will be key in ensuring the performance that is essential for a good user experience.
At this stage, we're looking for a highly passionate, talented, and hands-on principal member of technical staff who can think out of the box, enjoy solving complex technical challenges, communicate across different organizations, and provide directions and mentor others to join our team. As with most service teams, there is a periodic on-call rotation as part of this role. The principal member of technical staff will be participating in the rotation and will be leveling the operational practices and building any necessary automation to reduce operational toil.
