Responsibilities

 

Oracle is a leader in enterprise cloud applications powering many of the world’s largest organizations, and we’re in the process revolutionizing our application user experiences. Take a look at Oracle’s vision for our next generation of Oracle SaaS Applications at https://youtu.be/fc6tCZlEOVo.
 
The Oracle Application Platform Team enables this application transformation through the creation of our new Redwood user interface components and enterprise-scale backend services.  We are on a quest to provide the most productive platform for developers building beautiful application experiences for our customers.  This is a wonderful opportunity to work with a team of Java and JavaScript engineers who are ready to take on this challenge.  
 
Creating beautiful application user experiences is not just about the UI.  It’s also about providing extremely fast, secure, and extensible REST services to back these user experiences.  We’re looking for amazingly talented Java engineers to design and build a new REST service platform to back our Redwood experiences.  Our goal is to create a universal search service and transaction service that is metadata-oriented and is simple to uptake, test, debug, and monitor.  These services must be highly scalable and dynamic to meet the varying work loads for our customers.  
 
We have many large scale customers who are ready to work with you on this fabulous journey.  If you have experience designing, developing, and testing enterprise scalable microservices using cloud native infrastructure this should be the perfect job for you. As a Backend Developer, you will collaborate with smart engineers to code at cloud scale. You will be adequately equipped and provided all freedom to make the right and appropriate architectural and implementation choices.
 
What we are looking for from you:

• Creative thinking and hands on development of scalable asynchronous REST services using the latest JDK optimizations and patterns

• Passionate about building the most efficient enterprise applications possible with the understanding that Oracle Application tools and services must be rock solid from testing and security perspective.  Our customers are betting their businesses on our commitment to quality, performance, testing, and security. 

• Teamwork is key here.  We are looking for developers who believe in the value of cross team collaboration, code reviews, test case analysis, and defect reviews.  It’s all about continuously learning and improving.
