Providing training and career development opportunities and emphasizing strong support for our local communities through philanthropic initiatives are essential to our culture. For additional information, please visit Oaktree's website at Summary We are looking for a Vice President to join our newly‑formed Product Engineering group. This is a senior individual contributor who will be instrumental in building the next‑generation platform for Oaktree's credit business – one of the firm's largest and most complex investment strategies. A note on title: Vice President is an internal title common across the financial industry. In terms of scope and expectations, this role is most comparable to a Senior or Staff Engineer at a technology company. We may update the title to reflect this more directly, but the substance of the role is what matters – this is a hands‑on, code‑every‑day engineering position. You will be deep in the codebase, building systems, solving hard problems, and shipping software. If you're looking for a role where you direct work rather than do it, this isn't it. You will build data‑intensive applications that sit at the heart of how Oaktree sources, analyzes, and manages credit investments – from the data pipelines and integration layers underneath to the interfaces that investment professionals use every day. The scope is the full stack of the platform: ingestion, transformation, analytics, and the tools that put insights into the hands of the people making decisions. The goal is concrete – help Oaktree's credit business scale well beyond $200billion in AUM by building technology that makes our investment professionals faster, sharper, and more effective. We don't have traditional product managers. You'll work directly with business stakeholders and leadership to understand goals, translate them into well‑scoped engineering work, and own delivery. This means you need to be comfortable operating in ambiguity, talking to users, understanding their workflows, and making sound prioritization decisions without a PM handing you a spec. We are modernizing our architecture and technology stack in the cloud. The vision and direction are established – we're not starting from zero or chasing the bleeding edge. We are building a system that is battle‑tested, mature, and powerful: proven patterns, reliable technologies, and architecture that will hold up under the weight of a growing global credit business. Within that framework, you'll have real influence. You'll help shape how the platform evolves, advocate for approaches grounded in your experience, challenge assumptions constructively, and bring strong opinions to the table about the components and subsystems you own. This is a collaborative environment where your perspective matters – but one where we value pragmatism and durability over novelty. Our environment is Azure‑based, but what matters most is that you've operated at scale in at least one major cloud platform and can bring that experience forward. We emphasize the use of grounded generative AI throughout our engineering and product workflows. You should be excited about applying AI practically – not as a novelty, but as a core tool for building better software and delivering more value to users. Responsibilities Build and own critical components of the credit platform end‑to‑end – from data pipelines and services to the user‑facing applications that investment professionals rely on daily. Design and implement data‑intensive applications – including ingestion pipelines, transformation layers, analytical engines, and APIs – that are performant, reliable, and built to evolve. Contribute meaningfully to the modernization of Oaktree's technology stack – helping shape how the platform evolves within an established architectural vision, advocating for approaches grounded in your experience, and bringing strong, informed perspectives to technical decisions. Work directly with business stakeholders and investment professionals to understand their goals, workflows, and pain points – then translate that understanding into well‑scoped, high‑value engineering work. Operate as the de facto product owner for your areas of the platform: prioritize work, define MVPs, run experiments, iterate quickly, and make trade‑off decisions grounded in user value and business impact. Apply grounded generative AI thoughtfully across your work – using it to enhance development. #J-18808-Ljbffr PVH (Tommy Hilfiger/Calvin Klein)
