Job Description

As a Senior Oracle Fusion Technical Consultant, you will be responsible for designing and developing secure, scalable extensions to Oracle Fusion Cloud applications using Oracle Visual Builder Cloud Service (VBCS) and Oracle APEX on Autonomous Database (ATP/ADW).

You will play a key role in building custom applications, self-service portals, and workflow-driven solutions that enhance Oracle Fusion ERP and HCM functionality ensuring design alignment with Fusion architecture, governance, and security standards.

This is a hands-on role suited to an experienced Oracle Cloud developer who can lead extension workstreams, collaborate with functional, integration, and security teams, and deliver innovative low-code solutions using Oracle’s PaaS platform.

Key Responsibilities

Extensions & Custom Applications

• Lead the design and development of custom extensions and standalone applications using Oracle VBCS and Oracle APEX integrated with Fusion Cloud ERP and HCM.
• Build responsive, role-based user interfaces and workflows aligned with Oracle Redwood UX guidelines.
• Implement Fusion REST API integrations for CRUD operations and data synchronisation with Oracle SaaS.
• Develop solutions supporting transaction enrichment, approvals, and self-service functionality.
• Configure business rules, validations, and approval logic within custom components.
• Ensure reusability and maintainability through component-based design and modular architecture.

Data & Integration Layer

• Integrate extensions with Fusion SaaS using REST APIs, OIC services, FBDI/HDL, and BICC extracts where required.
• Configure secure connectivity (OAuth2, certificates, SFTP) and handle authentication through OCI Identity and Access Management (IAM).
• Support backend automation using PL/SQL, Oracle REST Data Services (ORDS), and Server-Side Logic (SSL).
• Collaborate with data migration and reporting teams to ensure data consistency and auditability across environments.

Governance, Security & Quality

• Ensure all extensions adhere to Oracle PaaS governance, naming, and deployment standards.
• Design solutions that align with Fusion Application Security (Roles, HCM Data Roles, Duty Roles) and data segregation principles.
• Conduct code reviews, peer validations, and maintain configuration control through Visual Builder Studio (VBS) and Git.
• Support SIT, UAT, and performance testing phases; troubleshoot and optimise custom components for scalability.
• Document technical designs, configuration guides, and release notes in line with project quality processes.

Innovation & Enablement

• Identify opportunities to leverage AI/automation, APEX plug-ins, or VBCS accelerators to improve user experience and delivery efficiency.
• Contribute to R&D and internal capability-building on low-code / no-code development within OCI.
• Mentor junior developers and guide offshore delivery teams in best practices for VBCS/APEX and Fusion extensions.

Qualifications

Required Skills & Experience

• 8+ years of Oracle Cloud or PaaS development experience, including at least 3+ years in VBCS and/or APEX.
• Proven track record in delivering custom extensions for Oracle Fusion ERP and HCM Cloud.
• Strong expertise in VBCS application design, REST API consumption, event-driven flows, and security integration.
• Hands-on experience with Oracle APEX on ATP/ADW or DBCS, including backend logic using PL/SQL and ORDS.
• Proficiency with Fusion SaaS REST APIs, FBDI, HDL, and BICC for integration support.
• Good understanding of Fusion security model, OAuth2, and OCI IAM.
• Familiarity with Visual Builder Studio (VBS), Git, and CI/CD pipelines for extension deployment.
• Excellent analytical and documentation skills with strong attention to UI/UX detail.
