    Oracle's AI Data Platform (AIDP) lets customers make use of their massive and diverse data for everything from traditional applications to analysis to powerful AI agents. Customers use it in all sorts of ways to help their business make better decisions and achieve better outcomes. Within the AIDP, the Analytics organization has created the Developer Workbench as a unified data environment for data engineers and data scientists. The Developer Workbench has tools to combine data, define repeatable pipelines, clean it, make it ready for AI/ML and applications, and administer it. With code or with a no-code editor, your users will create powerful agents and agent teams interoperable with all sorts of others as well. Your design will be used to power as many scenarios as Oracle has far-reaching customers, from keeping the lights on to improving patient health. As a successful candidate, you're an insatiable learner and experimenter in data tools and especially the application of AI. You're a specialist in enterprise design and have a track record of quickly learning complex domains, driven by curiosity. You may already understand the work of data engineers, data admins, and data scientists. Perhaps you've even done a bit of that work yourself and understand the technical mind intuitively. You create efficient, even elegant solutions to challenging, nuanced tasks. You've led process improvements and have helped your teams keep users at the center of their decisions. On the Oracle Analytics UX team, you will collaborate with software development, product management, and Oracle customers to set the long-view vision and the next steps that ship quickly. You will learn Oracle's award-winning Redwood design system and work toward the goal of a unified Oracle UX, while also advocating for design system evolutions that your products truly require. You will help identify and build on differentiators unique to Oracle as well as the right opportunities for applying AI. You're comfortable presenting to and collaborating with leadership, using design thinking and craft to build alignment and move forward. Your UX team has multiple other related products. As a principal designer, you'll contribute to and even lead routine collaborations with smart, talented, kind designers on shared UX patterns, team critique, and improving our own design operations. **The work you'll do is...** **Human-led** People/customers should be at the center of our approach. Partner with customers and experts to deeply understand their objectives and needs. Envision what might make their workflows and experiences spectacularly better. Conduct exploratory and evaluative sessions to identify critical needs and goals, then refine workflow, UI, and even product strategy. **Superb craftmanship** You will be designing solutions from concept, wireframes, and prototypes to detailed, visually polished and scalable experiences, ready for implementation. Incorporate feedback quickly and adapt to changes in business requirements and timelines without compromising quality. Leverage the existing design style guide and system, templates, and components in order to deliver quality on time. Define the new patterns needed for the future. Own and drive the experience of our products - and witness the impact that your work will have on our customers. **Bold, aspirational, exciting** We create solutions that span not just the depth and breadth of the challenges our customers face, but come from our diverse employee base, which is core to our DNA. A modern user experience is not modern if it's one-size-fits-all. You will work closely with kind, curious and smart designers, researchers, writers, product managers, and engineers across the globe. We believe innovation starts with inclusion - everyone's voice is heard and valued. \#LI-KL1 **Responsibilities** **You have 8+ years of experience.** You have worked as an enterprise product designer on complex or data-related products for at least 6 years and have a portfolio showcasing elegant solutions and business impact. **You're a data nerd.** You preferably have experience designing, delivering tools for data prep, data engineering, data administration, data science, and AI. You may have even used these tools or are familiar with SQL or Python, for example.

You may be better at some than others, but you know how to talk about each and combine them all into an experience that delights **.** You can show big design and strategy contributions to new products in your past work. **Your collaborations make teams design-led.** You make the people around you better. You have a point of view based on user-centered logic and evidence. You communicate clearly and persuasively to set the direction of whole interdisciplinary teams and build alignment among leaders. You are a model to early-career designers and share your skills and tools. **You get stuff done.** **You love rules and you know when to break them.** You think systemically even beyond your product because creating a coherent experience requires it. But you know when the system needs to expand and when to do something unique to create an arresting and product-defining moment that makes users ooh and aah. **You don't already know everything and you love to learn.** You're inspired by helping users solve their problems. You love finding out you're wrong. You consume large amounts of quantitative and qualitative data to constantly refine your assumptions. **And finally, you want to be part of creating spectacular and impactful change at a company that is committed to becoming a light unto others when it comes to user experience design.** You might have learned your craft via formal training or via on-the-job training. For most candidates, it's a combination of both.
