Principal Software Developer

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 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 up 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 looking for talented software engineers to join us and build out a new policy management and authorization 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 highly passionate engineers with varying levels of experience and areas of expertise to join the team. As with most software engineering teams developing and maintaining cloud services, there is a periodic on call rotation as part of this role.
