About The Position

This position will support the Healthcare Integrated General Ledger Account System (HIGLAS) program with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), as part of the Application Configuration team. Reporting to the DevOps Engineer Principal, the Senior Oracle Applications DevOps Engineer will serve as a technical SME for release automation and orchestration across a broad Oracle-centric technology stack, helping to advance the program's migration to a mature DevSecOps culture. This role requires a candidate with hands-on Oracle development experience who will personally build and maintain automated deployment pipelines for a heavily Oracle-based technology stack. The ideal candidate has built and maintained code within Oracle EBS environments (PL/SQL, Oracle Forms/Reports, OAF, Workflow) and uses that background to design and build pipelines that correctly handle the packaging, dependency, and promotion logic.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or related field or equivalent hands-on experience in similar business critical, large-scale application environments.
5+ years of hands-on Oracle development experience (e.g., PL/SQL, Oracle Forms/Reports, Oracle Application Framework, Workflow) within an Oracle EBS or comparable large-scale Oracle application environment
Release automation: FlexDeploy (or comparable enterprise release orchestration tooling)
Version control: GitLab, including branching/merging strategy design and automation trigger configuration
CI/CD tooling: Jenkins, GitLab CI
Configuration management/automation: Ansible, Shell scripting
Cloud integration: Oracle Cloud Integration (or comparable)
Technology Landscape: Direct experience and working knowledge of the packaging, dependency, and promotion requirements for: BI Publisher, Connect Direct, Database Deployments, ODI, OHS, Oracle SOA Suite, OSB, BR100 documentation/deployment and WebLogic
Experience with environment cloning, configuration management and release governance at scale across multi-layer Oracle application stacks
Demonstrated ability to apply real Oracle development experience toward automating build/deploy processes for applications and layers outside one's own direct coding background
