Oracle is seeking an experienced and driven AI Architect / Principal Developer to join the OCI Enterprise Engineering, Enterprise AI Platforms Team . This team builds, integrates, deploys, and supports enterprise-grade AI platforms used across Oracle, including employee-facing generative AI experiences, agentic AI capabilities, engineering automation platforms, and secure integrations with AI providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, OCI Generative AI, Codex-style developer assistants, and related enterprise AI services.

OCI Enterprise Engineering provides modern enterprise services to Oracle's internal businesses and is driving improved agility, performance, availability, and security across Oracle's enterprise and development environments. We seek passionate, highly motivated, engineering-first individuals who can help deliver scalable AI capabilities with strong enterprise controls, with particular emphasis on Agent AI , AI-assisted software engineering , and Harness-based engineering workflows .

As an IC4 AI Architect, you will design and deliver platform modules, integrations, agent frameworks, developer productivity capabilities, and operational services that make AI usable, secure, measurable, and productive for Oracle employees and engineering teams. You will work across multiple delivery tracks, rapidly evaluate emerging AI capabilities, and turn practical ideas into reliable enterprise deployments that can be adopted safely at Oracle scale.

This role is especially focused on building the next generation of enterprise AI platforms: autonomous and semi-autonomous agents, AI-powered engineering assistants, Codex-like coding workflows, Harness engineering automation, secure tool execution, model orchestration, observability, governance, and production-ready deployment patterns.

Responsibilities

• Architecture and technical ownership: Independently architect, design, and drive AI platform modules, provider integrations, APIs, agent runtimes, internal tools, and engineering automation services from concept through production release.

• Strong understanding of secure enterprise deployment patterns, including authentication, authorization, network controls, secrets management, audit logging, data privacy, secure code handling, and least-privilege access.

• Ability to quickly learn new AI capabilities, assess tradeoffs, and recommend practical approaches for safe adoption within a large enterprise.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex AI, agent, platform, and engineering automation concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience working with globally distributed teams and Agile delivery practice

Preferred Experience

• Experience deploying employee-facing AI platforms, internal productivity tools, chat assistants, enterprise knowledge systems, engineering assistants, or agentic AI products.

• Experience designing or integrating Agent AI systems that use tools, enterprise APIs, repository context, knowledge retrieval, workflow orchestration, or human approval flows.

• Experience with Harness or comparable engineering platforms for CI/CD, deployment automation, feature delivery, release operations, governance, and developer workflows.

• Experience with Codex-style AI coding tools, AI code generation, automated test generation, code review assistance, repository analysis, or AI-assisted software delivery.

• Experience integrating multiple AI providers or designing abstraction layers for model routing, policy enforcement, observability, evaluation, fallback behavior, and cost controls.

• Experience with content creation, document analysis, data analysis, deep research, enterprise search, software engineering workflows, or agent-based workflows in enterprise AI products.

• Experience evaluating emerging AI capabilities and converting ambiguous requirements into working designs and production-ready delivery plans.

• Experience defining evaluation frameworks for AI agents, coding assistants, retrieval quality, tool execution accuracy, safety, and enterprise readiness.
