About The Position

Tessera Labs is seeking an Oracle Technical Project Manager to manage multiple concurrent Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Fusion Cloud engagements from kickoff through go-live. The role owns delivery plans, governance, technical deliverables, testing, data conversion, cutover and customer communications, ensuring engagements meet agreed scope, dates and success criteria. It combines delivery management with hands-on oversight of Oracle project artifacts and workstreams, including RICEFW inventories, specifications, configuration migration, integrations, conversion cycles, test cycles and cutover runbooks. Engagements may include proofs of value, discovery and implementation work, often involving migrations from SAP ECC, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, Infor or custom systems, as well as environments where EBS and Fusion operate side by side. The role manages several engagements at once and allocates approximately 80% of its time to engagement delivery and 20% to delivery standards, platform input and pre-sales support. The project manager will work with Tessera’s AI agents, Forward Deployed Engineers, domain SMEs, Oracle architects and customers. They will plan review and approval gates for AI-produced work, validate its quality and security, measure its value, and use AI tools in day-to-day planning and reporting. The role also contributes lessons learned and reusable delivery standards to Tessera’s platform and team. The position is remote and open to candidates in Latin America or offshore locations such as India. It requires daily overlap with US business hours—full overlap for near-shore candidates and at least three to four hours for offshore candidates—and occasional travel to customer sites for kickoffs and go-lives. This is a long-term contract, engaged directly or through a staffing partner, with an immediate start.

Hands-on experience managing technical deliverables on Oracle implementations, including RICEFW inventories, functional and technical specifications, configuration migration, data conversion mock cycles, integrations, test cycles and cutover runbooks.
