Job description

Role Overview

As an AI & Data Architect, you will define the technical architecture for large-scale AI and data platforms that power both OCI services and AI-enabled experiences across Oracle products. You will establish reference architectures, canonical APIs, integration patterns, and platform primitives that product teams can build on rather than recreate independently.

You will work across distributed cloud infrastructure, AI systems, databases, data engineering, search, enterprise applications, networking, security, and developer platforms. The role requires strong systems thinking, deep software and data architecture experience, practical knowledge of modern AI systems, and the ability to influence technical direction across multiple engineering organizations without relying on organizational authority.

Oracle Product & Platform Scope

The architecture is expected to span OCI and the broader Oracle portfolio. Representative platforms include:

• AI & Agent Platform
  • OCI Generative AI (Responses API, hosted agentic applications, and Agents/RAG); OCI Data Science; OCI AI Services (Language, Speech, Vision, and Document Understanding).
• Database, Data & Retrieval
  • Oracle AI Database 26ai / Autonomous AI Database; AI Vector Search; Select AI / NL2SQL; Oracle AI Data Platform; GoldenGate; Object Storage, Streaming, Data Integration, Data Flow, and OpenSearch.
• Applications & Analytics
  • Fusion Cloud Applications; AI Agent Studio / Fusion Agentic Applications; Oracle Analytics Cloud / Fusion Data Intelligence; Oracle Integration; Oracle APEX.
• Cross-Oracle Consumers
  • Reusable capabilities for Oracle SaaS and industry products, NetSuite, Oracle Health, partner solutions, and customer applications.

This list is representative, not exhaustive; the role is expected to create reusable architecture across product boundaries, not own every product implementation.
