Principal Program Manager, Technical Delivery
Oracle’s Strategic Customer Engineering organization enables Oracle’s most strategic customers to successfully plan, acquire, and consume OCI services at scale. Our customers run mission-critical and AI-intensive workloads on Oracle Cloud, and our mission is to ensure customer growth plans are translated into predictable and executable technical outcomes.
