Join Oracle's Health Data Intelligence (HDI) team as a Principal Software Engineer, where you will design and build the next generation of cloud-native platforms, distributed systems, and intelligent automation solutions that power large-scale healthcare analytics. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy solving complex software engineering challenges at scale. You will develop highly available services, reliability platforms, observability systems, automation frameworks, and AI-powered operational tooling that enable mission-critical analytics workloads across Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and multi-cloud environments. You will partner with product, platform, data, and reliability teams to build scalable software systems that process massive datasets, improve developer productivity, automate operational workflows, and enhance platform resilience. As Oracle continues investing in AI-native infrastructure, you will help drive the adoption of Generative AI and agent-based technologies to build intelligent operational platforms, self-service infrastructure solutions, and autonomous reliability capabilities.
U.S. citizenship is required for this position, as the successful candidate will be required to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance after hire.
