Release Developer 3

Oracle Analytics Cloud is building a state-of-the-art unified data platform from the ground up with data processing, data science, and data analytics capabilities. We are looking for exceptional software engineers with backgrounds in cloud services and distributed systems. 

Our organization's mission is to provide an easy way to develop advanced analytical and AI applications combining data from across the entire Oracle ecosystem including Databases, Applications, and Object Storages. Oracle Data Services already provides a wide array of capabilities for data management and processing, through Big Data Service, Data Catalog, Data Flow, Data Integration Service, and Data Lake. However, the customers must integrate and navigate through these services to implement their use cases such as Lakehouses, AI/ML training, or BI dashboards. We are building a new data product to give customers a single pane of glass where they can load and secure data, author Spark notebooks, define data feeds and pipelines, query data with SQL and share data to others.

As a release engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring the successful delivery of software products and updates to our customers. You will be responsible for implementing, managing, and maintaining our software CI/CD pipelines and working directly with development teams to plan and execute the release process, ensuring that software releases are delivered on time and with the highest quality. This is a critical role in our organization, as your efforts will directly impact our ability to deliver reliable software products to our customers.
