Senior Technical Program Manager

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is building a next generation cloud to support customers running both Oracle and custom workloads. As we do that, we have a mission to engage deeply with all corners of Oracle to keep our customers on track and to drive their success with OCI.

We are looking for an experienced Technical Program Manager to join the OCI Release Management (ORM) group within Oracle’s Cloud Compliance and Assurance (OCCA) organization. ORM leads Oracle’s end-to-end processes for releasing services on OCI, enabling them commercially to recognize revenue, and deploying services across OCI’s datacenter regions to serve Oracle’s broad customer base.  You will be responsible for building and managing complex, cross-organizational programs within ORM that impact both product and business operations for OCI and will have exposure to multiple critical business initiatives. 

ORM program managers partner across Oracle to operate and improve upon the set of release cycle processes, and engage daily with stakeholders representing product management, engineering, program management, operations, and business leadership.  The space is large, cross-cutting, complex, and brings opportunities for exposure across Oracle’s entire IaaS/PaaS/SaaS portfolio. The role includes ownership of large initiatives to onboard the service stack to new fast-paced and high-profile company initiatives.  We build new things, solve new problems, and drive company success at scale.
