Senior Frontend Software Developer

Job Description

Oracle Digital Assistant (ODA) delivers a complete AI platform to create conversational experiences for business applications through text, chat, and voice interfaces. ODA is a platform for creating conversational interfaces or chatbots. A chatbot is a computer program that simulates and processes human conversation (written or spoken), allowing humans to interact with applications and data as if they were communicating with a real person.

The world is seeing a global shift toward AI in the healthcare industry and ODA is delivering AI-driven solutions in the Oracle Health & Artificial Intelligence (OHAI) space. Part of this stems from the healthcare industry’s transition towards a cloud environment for data management; with the cloud, data is now available on a real-time scale for further analysis. But rather than rely on staff to meticulously comb through data, artificial intelligence enables a much efficient—and in many cases, much more accurate—process.

OHAI and ODA core values are how we deliver excellence. We strive for equity, inclusion, and respect for all. We are committed to the greater good in our products and our actions. We are constantly learning and taking opportunities to grow our careers and ourselves. We challenge each other to stretch beyond our past to build our future.

Responsibilities

You should value simplicity and impact, work comfortably in a collaborative, agile environment, and be excited to learn.

Our Frontend Engineers are people who can work independently and provide technical leadership to the broader organization. You should have experience developing scalable UI designs, and an understanding of how to make these interfaces fault tolerant and intuitive. The ideal candidate will be technically strong and productive; someone who knows how to balance speed and quality with iterative and incremental improvements. You understand operational excellence and know-how to reinforce a culture of being proactive within your team. You recommend and justify major changes to new and existing products and establish consensus with data-driven approaches.
