About You
You are an expert. All our Senior Engineers are experts in multiple technologies. You have a solid knowledge of the whole web stack: Front-End, Back-End, databases, cache layer, HTTP protocol, TCP/IP, OS, CPU architecture, etc.
You want to own it. You embrace the challenges inherent in being fully responsible for an important part of Oracle's Cloud business, from supporting your applications in production to continuously monitoring and evolving it, based on performance metrics.
You live the process. You know that you can’t be successful without bringing order to chaos. Scrum, issue tracking, source code management, continuous integration is all second nature to you. And, you know that too much can be worse than too little.
You’re agile (and not just in the buzzword sense). You know how to succeed in a fast paced, ever changing environment and wouldn’t have it any other way.
You love to be responsible for a critical portion of the codebase, from design through deployment in production and support. You share responsibility with other team members to deploy new code to production and work with the team to operate services that host massive amounts of data.
