Software Developer 4

Oracle

About The Position

The Automation Frameworks team is looking for an experienced software developer to join our team creating cloud automation services for Oracle Health & Analytics and Global Industry Applications. Overview Standardization and automation are essential to scaling our cloud-based SaaS offerings efficiently. Infrastructure-as-code (IaC) enforces consistent standards, improves visibility into configuration drift, and enables reliable, repeatable delivery of infrastructure and applications. Our automation frameworks enable teams to deploy and operate resilient, compliant environments across regions, environments, and lifecycle stages—improving scalability, reliability, and auditability while reducing manual toil. We embrace AI-assisted development as a primary way we build IaC, automation, and tests—accelerating delivery and improving quality—while maintaining strong engineering rigor through design review, peer review, CI/CD validation, and change control.
