The job:We need to develop tools/ framework and test applications/scripts and automate the test setup needed for the features of Oracle code we are testing and often would need to simulate functionality in a regular Linux machine to run functional tests.

This is a programming position as all the tests/frameworks are applications which should exercise a feature in the yet to be released version of Oracle product and need to be designed and implemented.

These test programs runs fully automated on a server farm - so our test framework needs to configure, run test applications/inject failures, and verify results by itself. Most of the features would need very specific test programs/frameworks.

The opening is for an individual contributor position in Database test and tools development team.

Career Level - IC3

In this position, you will be working very closely with the feature development team to create a test plan/tools/infrastructure needed for the feature.

You will also be reviewing the feature specifications (Functional & Design spec) before they are finalized as your inputs from a customer perspective might be important in the implementation. Our primary development platform is Linux, and depending on the area you work on the coding would involve Perl, Python, C or Java to develop test programs. The challenge and the advantage is in understanding the technology and apply it in a practical setup.
