The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  Oracle is hiring a VP of Engineering in Richmond, VA.

• Role description

  The phrase "it works on my machine" makes you wince, which is exactly why you'd make a great VP of Engineering here in Richmond. Stack the numbers: $206,000 - $307,000, 13 years required, contract schedule, and a vp seat that grows as fast as you do.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Stitch MySQL events into the Work-Life Balance pipeline feeding Oracle's technology reports
  • Pair-program tricky Ruby on Rails edge cases with engineers across Richmond, VA
  • Resurrect flaky Nginx tests until the Richmond, VA suite is trustworthy again
  • Pull Oracle's React stack out of the VA region before the migration deadline
  • Prototype rough React ideas fast, then decide which earn a place in Oracle's stack
  • Pair Redis and Work-Life Balance in a pipeline Oracle can extend without your help later
  • Own data integrity across Oracle's Resilience stores so Richmond numbers never lie

  What You'll Bring

  • The judgment to say no to good ideas at the wrong time
  • Hands-on technology experience that holds up to follow-up questions
  • Familiarity with Oracle-scale workflows, or the appetite to reach them
  • Proven follow-through, measured in shipped things rather than good intentions

  Think of Oracle as the spirited-and-grounded engine behind some of the most trusted technology products on the market. Recognition here is specific and frequent, not saved up for some annual Richmond, VA ceremony.

  At Oracle, $206,000 - $307,000 is just the opener; the mentorship, benefits, and Richmond, VA flexibility are where the offer gets good.
