Job description

Build the Future of Healthcare Technology

At Oracle Health, we’re redefining how clinicians deliver care by building the next generation of cloud-native Electronic Health Records (EHR). Our mission is simple but impactful: give healthcare providers modern, intelligent applications that improve patient outcomes while reducing administrative burden.

We’re looking for a hands‑on Principal Software Architect who enjoys designing systems as much as building them. This is not a role where you’ll spend your days reviewing diagrams—you’ll be writing production code, solving complex engineering challenges, and helping shape the technical direction of one of Oracle Health’s flagship products.

If you’re passionate about distributed systems, modern full‑stack development, cloud‑native architecture, AI‑enabled applications, and mentoring engineering teams while remaining deeply technical, we’d love to talk.

What You’ll Do

• Architect, design, and build modern cloud‑native applications that power Oracle Health’s next‑generation Electronic Health Record platform.
• Lead the design of scalable microservices, APIs, distributed systems, and modern user experiences used by clinicians every day.
• Remain hands‑on throughout the development lifecycle, writing production code, reviewing designs, and solving complex technical problems alongside the engineering team.
• Drive architectural strategy while partnering with Product, UX, Engineering, and Technical Program Management to deliver innovative healthcare solutions.
• Build modern full‑stack applications using Java, Spring Boot, React, TypeScript, and cloud‑native technologies.
• Design highly available, resilient, and secure systems that operate at enterprise scale.
• Integrate AI‑powered capabilities into healthcare workflows that improve provider productivity and patient care.
• Mentor engineers, elevate technical standards, and foster a culture of engineering excellence through architecture reviews, code reviews, and technical leadership.
• Champion modern software engineering practices including CI/CD, observability, automated testing, and infrastructure as code.

What You’ll Bring

• 10+ years building enterprise software with deep expertise in Java and distributed systems.
• Proven experience architecting and delivering large‑scale cloud‑native applications while remaining an active software developer.
• Strong full‑stack development experience with Java, Spring Boot, REST APIs, React, TypeScript, JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS.
• Expertise designing microservices, event‑driven architectures, APIs, and highly scalable backend platforms.
• Experience with Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, and modern cloud platforms such as OCI, AWS, Azure, or GCP.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, networking, databases, performance optimization, and application resiliency.
• Passion for building intuitive customer experiences alongside robust backend services.
• Demonstrated technical leadership through architecture, mentoring, design reviews, and cross‑functional collaboration.
• Experience working in Agile environments with geographically distributed engineering teams.

Why Oracle Health?

Every line of code you write has the potential to improve the experience of clinicians and positively impact patient care around the world. This is an opportunity to work on one of Oracle’s most strategic healthcare platforms, modernize Electronic Health Records through cloud‑native architecture, AI‑powered capabilities, and world‑class engineering. You’ll have the autonomy to influence technical direction, the opportunity to solve complex engineering challenges at scale, and the ability to remain what you love most.
