The Role

We're after a Principal Software Engineer whose idea of a good day is a deadline-driven pull request that closed three tickets and opened zero. Rare is the principal opening that pairs $145,000 - $214,000 with the freedom to shape technology work the way this Rio Rancho one does.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build Adaptability self-service tools so Rio Rancho teams stop filing tickets for everything
  • Build internal tooling that improves developer productivity and velocity
  • Turn Oracle's Adaptability on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
  • Chase down the Docker integration that silently drops Oracle events at midnight
  • Catch the high-growth Swift regression in staging before it ever reaches Rio Rancho customers

What You'll Bring

  • Roughly 8+ years operating in a similar Principal Software Engineer position
  • Willingness to commute to Rio Rancho, NM or work flexibly as needed
  • A communication style that translates jargon back into plain English
  • The instinct to ask "what would change your mind?" before debating
  • Enough Agile to be dangerous, enough Docker to be trusted
  • A learner's pace that keeps up with shifting requirements

Equal parts laboratory and workshop, Oracle builds scrappy-but-steady technology products that hold up far beyond the borders of Rio Rancho, NM. We hand new Principal Software Engineer hires real ownership early because trust given freely tends to be returned.

Your compensation opens at $145,000 - $214,000, your mentor is waiting, your benefits are ready, and your hours are yours to flex.

We are filling this Principal Software Engineer seat now, with onboarding planned for the near term.

Join the people at Oracle who chose interesting work over a comfortable rut.
