Software Developer - Architect

Oracle•United States,

About The Position

The Architect, AI/ML will serve as a hands-on technical leader responsible for modernizing our Approvals platform — replacing legacy BPM systems with intelligent, agentic workflows powered by large language models. This individual will directly own the design and development of prompting infrastructure, orchestration layers, multi-agent systems, and fine-tuning pipelines, while enabling the broader engineering organization to adopt and extend these capabilities.

Requirements

4–5+ years of hands-on machine learning experience in production environments; direct coding expectations — this is not a staff or advisory role
Demonstrated experience building prompting layers and orchestration systems on top of foundation models
Proven track record of shipping LLM-based systems to production
Deep expertise in LLM fine-tuning methodologies and agentic system design

Nice To Haves

Prior experience modernizing or replacing BPM systems with AI-driven alternatives
Experience with multi-agent orchestration frameworks
Background in enterprise workflow automation or approvals domains
Familiarity with cloud-native ML infrastructure

Responsibilities

Lead the architectural transformation from rule-based BPM to agentic, LLM-powered approval workflows — defining the long-term vision and driving hands-on execution
Design, build, and own the prompting layer and orchestration infrastructure on top of foundation models, including RAG pipelines, context injection, multi-agent coordination, and human-in-the-loop escalation patterns
Lead hands-on fine-tuning efforts, making principled trade-offs between adaptation approaches (LoRA, PEFT, instruction tuning, RLHF). You keep up with the latest techniques for fine tuning
Establish LLMOps practices for production reliability, observability, and drift detection
Diagnose and resolve production issues in LLM-powered systems; develop runbooks and raise engineering team capability through direct collaboration and pairing
Partner with product and engineering leadership to define and sequence the agentic BPM roadmap
