Oracle’s Automated Patching Framework (APF) builds and delivers software updates for Oracle Database, Exadata, Fleet Patching and Provisioning (FPP), Real Application Clusters (RAC), Oracle GoldenGate (OGG), Zero Data Loss Recovery Appliance (ZDLRA), and Autonomous Health Framework (AHF), across on-premises and cloud environments. APF is a business-critical platform that helps Oracle deliver patches to customers on schedule and improves the efficiency of development teams across the company.

The framework includes services and tools built with Python, Java, Perl, PL/SQL, and Ant. Our team develops and operates these systems in a large-scale production setting. Engineers contribute across the full software lifecycle, from design and implementation to troubleshooting, performance tuning, and production support.

We’re looking for strong hands-on software engineers who enjoy solving complex automation problems and working across technologies and teams.

Design, develop, troubleshoot, and debug software for Oracle’s automated patching framework. You’ll build and maintain tools and services using technologies such as Python, Java, Perl, Linux shell scripting, and PL/SQL. The role also includes providing internal production support,



investigating and triaging issues, and improving the reliability and performance of the patching infrastructure.

As a member of the software engineering team, you’ll help define and implement software solutions, make changes to existing architecture as needs evolve, and contribute to technical direction across shared projects. The work is varied and often complex, requiring sound judgment and the ability to work independently. You may also lead projects or provide technical guidance to other developers.

Design, develop, and maintain APF (Automation Patching Framework) services, tools, and automation.
Provide production support and investigate issues reported by internal customers.
Lead or contribute to cross-functional technical discussions and shared projects.
Improve the framework’s architecture, code quality, reliability, and support processes using AI tools where appropriate.
Take ownership of software throughout its lifecycle, including operation in a 24/7 production environment.
