Oracle Health Platform Engineering builds core platform capabilities that enable Oracle Health teams to deliver secure, scalable, highly available services. We operate with an AI-first engineering culture—engineers are expected to use AI-assisted approaches to accelerate delivery and improve quality across system design, coding, testing, documentation, and operations.
We are seeking a Principal Software Developer (IC4) to design, develop, and operate backend services and platform components that improve developer productivity and strengthen platform security and reliability.
