We are seeking a hands-on Lead Oracle Fusion Cloud Integration Consultant with strong Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) expertise and proven experience delivering integrations across Oracle Fusion Cloud and wider enterprise systems. This client-facing technical leadership role centres on Oracle Integration Cloud delivery, leading integration design and delivery, defining reusable interface patterns, supporting technical governance, and remaining hands-on throughout build, testing, deployment, and defect resolution activities. The role also includes exposure to Oracle Fusion extensions and workflow tooling such as VBCS, Oracle Process Automation (OPA)/Process Cloud Service (PCS). The successful candidate should be willing and able to quickly learn these areas.

The Role Demands Strong Experience In

• Designing and delivering Oracle Integration Cloud integrations across Fusion ERP, HCM and EPM.
• Building app-driven, scheduled, event-based, REST/SOAP and file-based integrations.
• Working with Fusion interface patterns including FBDI, HDL, BICC, BI Publisher outputs and public APIs.
• Establishing reusable OIC templates, error-handling patterns, monitoring standards and deployment controls.
• Leading integration workstreams and engaging functional, technical and client stakeholders.

Key Responsibilities

• OIC Integration Architecture & Delivery
• Lead the end-to-end design, build and delivery of integrations between Oracle Fusion Cloud and internal or external enterprise systems using Oracle Integration Cloud.
• Define practical and reusable integration patterns covering synchronous APIs, asynchronous orchestration, scheduled processing, event-based flows and file-based interfaces.
• Produce and maintain integration design artefacts, including interface catalogues, mapping specifications, transformation rules, error-handling designs, deployment notes and operational support documentation.
• Build and optimise OIC integrations using app-driven orchestrations, scheduled integrations and bulk processing patterns, REST and SOAP services, SFTP/file-based interfaces, Oracle Fusion adapters and enterprise application adapters where applicable, JSON, XML, XSLT, XPath and schema-based transformations.
• Implement robust error handling, replay, recovery and operational support patterns covering technical failures, business validation failures, rejected records and downstream availability issues.
• Support performance tuning for high-volume integrations, including batching, pagination, payload optimisation, parallel processing and appropriate use of asynchronous patterns.
• Implement secure integration patterns using OAuth2, certificates, keys, PGP encryption, secure FTP, allow-listed connectivity and OIC connectivity agents where required.
• Support environment configuration, migration between environments, deployment sequencing and release readiness for OIC artefacts.
• Fusion Interface & Data Alignment
• Work closely with Fusion functional and data migration teams to confirm source and target objects, interface ownership, business rules, error handling and reconciliation requirements.
• Design integrations that align with Fusion ERP/HCM/EPM interface options, including REST/SOAP APIs, FBDI, HDL, BICC extracts, BI Publisher outputs and scheduled ESS jobs.
• Ensure integration outputs support reconciliation, auditability, traceability and operational reporting requirements.
• Support defect triage across Fusion, OIC and external system boundaries, including analysis of payloads, logs, transformations and downstream responses.
• VBCS and OPA/PCS Support
• Support VBCS-based extension activities such as minor page updates, service connection configuration, UI changes and integration with existing OIC services.
• Develop working familiarity with Oracle Process Automation (OPA)/Process Cloud Service (PCS) with expectation of learning and supporting workflow/process automation use cases under guidance.
• Work with senior extension or process automation specialists where complex UI, workflow or business process design is required.
• Apply agreed standards for role-based access, usability, configuration management and handover when contributing to VBCS, OPA/PCS artefacts.
• Frameworks, Standards & Reusability
• Create and maintain reusable OIC templates, integration naming standards, connection standards, mapping conventions and deployment checklists.
• Define consistent error logging, business exception handling, technical exception handling and replay/recovery standards across integrations.
• Contribute to integration governance, design reviews and quality assurance gates across the delivery lifecycle.
• Promote maintainable engineering practices, including clear artefact ownership, version control discipline, peer review, test evidence and release traceability.
• DevOps, Testing & Release Enablement
• Support Git-based version control and structured promotion of OIC artefacts between development, test and production environments.
• Contribute to CI/CD or semi-automated deployment approaches for OIC using Visual Builder Studio, Git-based repositories or agreed enterprise tooling.
• Prepare and support unit testing, SIT, UAT defect resolution, deployment rehearsals, cutover activities and early-life support.
• Maintain clear release notes, configuration records, dependency lists and rollback considerations for integration deployments.
• Leadership & Stakeholder Engagement
• Act as the technical lead for OIC integration delivery, coordinating with functional teams, data teams, reporting teams, security teams and external system owners.
• Lead and mentor developers, including reviewing designs, validating build quality and ensuring adherence to agreed integration standards.
• Provide clear technical options, risks, assumptions and recommendations to solution architects, delivery leads and client stakeholders.
• Support solution shaping, effort estimation, planning and dependency management for integration work packages.

Qualifications

• Essential Experience
• Strong hands-on experience with Oracle Integration Cloud in complex enterprise delivery environments.
• Proven ability to design, build, test and support OIC integrations across Oracle Fusion Cloud and external platforms.
• Good understanding of Oracle Fusion ERP/HCM/EPM integration patterns, including REST/SOAP APIs, FBDI, HDL, BICC, BI Publisher and ESS job orchestration.
• Strong technical knowledge of REST, SOAP, XML, JSON, XSLT, XPath, schemas, payload mapping and interface validation.
• Experience with secure integration design, including OAuth2, certificates, secure file transfer, encryption, connectivity agents and controlled access to integration endpoints.
• Experience implementing technical and business error-handling frameworks, including logging, notification, retry, replay and reconciliation support.
• Experience supporting high-volume or business-critical integration processing, including performance tuning and operational support considerations.
