    Oracle Cloud Architect

    Transform Enterprise Infrastructure. Lead Cloud Innovation. Make Your Mark.

    We're looking for an Oracle Cloud Architect who thinks strategically but isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves. If you're energized by the challenge of modernizing enterprise infrastructure, designing systems that scale, and working at the intersection of business strategy and technical execution—this role is for you.

    You'll be the driving force behind our Oracle Cloud Infrastructure strategy, working with talented cross-functional teams to build solutions that are secure, resilient, and built for the future.

    What You'll Do

    Shape Cloud Strategy

    • Partner directly with leadership to translate business objectives into cloud architecture that delivers real value
    • Design migration roadmaps that move us from legacy infrastructure to modern, cloud-native solutions
    • Build frameworks that balance performance, security, compliance, and cost—without compromise
    • Architect disaster recovery and high-availability solutions that our business can depend on

    Build and Optimize

    • Own the health and performance of our Oracle Cloud environment—from monitoring to optimization
    • Lead infrastructure upgrades, patches, and changes with minimal disruption
    • Troubleshoot complex performance issues and turn findings into lasting improvements
    • Ensure backup and recovery processes are tested, documented, and bulletproof

    Enable and Elevate

    • Be the go-to expert for all things Oracle Cloud across the organization
    • Collaborate with database, application, security, and network teams to ensure seamless integration
    • Create clear, actionable documentation that becomes the foundation for how we operate
    • Mentor teams through training and hands-on enablement—build cloud fluency across IT

    Drive Innovation

    • Stay ahead of Oracle Cloud's evolution and bring fresh ideas to the table
    • Lead complex migrations with confidence, clarity, and minimal risk
    • Experiment, iterate, and continuously improve our cloud capabilities

    What You Bring

    Experience That Matters

    • 3+ years in cloud engineering, database administration, or infrastructure roles with hands-on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) experience
    • Real-world success designing and managing enterprise-scale cloud environments
    • Background working with complex IT systems, databases, and enterprise applications (experience with PeopleSoft or Oracle Cloud Applications is a plus)

    Technical Depth

    • Strong command of OCI services, Oracle Cloud Manager, and cloud-native tooling
    • Expertise in backup/recovery strategies, performance tuning, and cloud migration methodologies
    • Solid grasp of IT governance, security best practices, and compliance requirements

    The Mindset

    • You're both strategic and hands-on—you can design the blueprint and help build it
    • You communicate complex ideas clearly to technical and non-technical audiences alike
    • You thrive in collaborative environments and know how to align teams around shared goals
    • You're curious, adaptable, and always learning

    Nice to Have

    • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field (or equivalent practical experience)
    • Oracle Cloud certifications

    Why This Role Matters

    This isn't a maintenance position. You'll have a direct hand in defining how we architect, operate, and scale our cloud infrastructure. You'll work with modern tools, solve meaningful problems, and see the impact of your work across the organization.

    You'll join a team that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement—where your ideas are heard and your expertise is respected.
