Oracle Principal Engineer

Oracle Principal Engineer Role Summary Specialized Bicycle Components runs its global finance, supply chain, and commerce operations on Oracle. Thisrole owns that platform: its architecture, its security and compliance posture, the Oracle Cloud Servicesrelationship, and the platform work underpinning the migration to Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications.

The position combines hands-on engineering with platform ownership. The Principal Engineer remainstechnically engaged with Oracle 19c and EBS R12.x while setting OCI architecture standards, owning the SOXcontrol environment, directing the Oracle Cloud Services team as a delivery program, and owning the platformwork beneath the EBS-to-Fusion migration.

Responsibilities Oracle Database and EBS Engineering The Principal Engineer provides technical leadership for Oracle 19c and EBS R12.x across Production, Test,Development, and Disaster Recovery. The work spans highly available architecture built on RAC, Data Guard,RMAN, and ASM; backup, recovery, and business continuity strategy; and the planning and execution ofpatching, upgrades, cloning, refreshes, and performance tuning. The role establishes the runbooks and operational standards supporting 24x7 availability and leads root cause analysis to reduce recurring incidents.

While not performing testing directly, the Principal Engineer is accountable for test coverage and executionahead of patching and platform changes, and for communicating maintenance windows, change timing, and expected impact across the technology organization.

OCI Architecture, Security, and Compliance This role owns OCI architecture to Oracle Well-Architected and landing-zone standards, includingcompartment design, tenancy and IAM governance, network design, and infrastructure-as-code with Terraform. It also owns Oracle SOX IT General Controls: access reviews, segregation of duties, change management, and audit evidence for the annual internal audit review. Encryption and key management, datamasking, vulnerability management, and cloud cost governance fall within the same scope.

The Oracle CSS Partnership Oracle Cloud Services is managed here as a delivery program rather than a support queue. The Principal Engineer sets priorities, plans capacity, tracks milestones, and holds CSS accountable for SLAs, availability, and incident resolution. The role owns the statement of work and change requests, contributes to contract renewaldiscussions, and stewards Specialized's Oracle licensing posture.

The Fusion Migration The migration from OCI-hosted EBS to Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications is a multi-year program owned by the Global Enterprise Applications leader. While GEA owns the applications migrating, this role owns the system sand platform beneath them: target platform architecture, environment strategy, data migration, andcoexistence between EBS and Fusion during the transition. The Principal Engineer partners with GEA andSBC Internal Use OnlySBC Internal Use Onlyapplication leads to plan and execute each phase, and is accountable for the platform being ready, secure, and performing when it is.

Cross-Functional Partnership This role works closely with the Global Enterprise Applications (GEA) team, partnering on demand intake,ticket triage, and execution for Oracle work, and coordinating on releases, environment availability, and application changes that cross the infrastructure and applications boundary. The Principal Engineer also participates in the Global Tech Prioritization process, providing technical assessment, effort estimation, and architectural input on proposed initiatives, and translating approved priorities into delivery plans for the Oracle platform.

Regular collaboration with Finance, Supply Chain, Security, and Infrastructure teams roundsout the role's cross-functional scope.

Thought Leadership and Technology Innovation The Principal Engineer defines and maintains the long-term architecture roadmap for Specialized's Oraclelandscape, evaluates emerging capabilities including AI and advanced automation within Fusion, and bringsforward proposals ahead of operational demand.
