- Performance & Scaling: Tune queries and jobs for high‑volume payroll cycles, optimize partitioning/indexing strategies, batch windows, and error-handling/retry logic.
- Quality & Compliance: Establish automated testing (unit/integration), reconcile outputs against payroll results and general ledger postings; enforce SOX/ISO controls, segregation of duties, and PII protection.
- Observability: Instrument integrations with logging, metrics, and alerts (e.g., Splunk, ELK, OCI Monitoring); create dashboards for SLA tracking and payroll cut‑off readiness.
- Documentation & Standards: Author technical specs, sequence diagrams, data dictionaries/mappings, and runbooks; promote coding standards and CI/CD best practices.
- Mentorship & Collaboration: Partner with Payroll Ops, HRIS, Finance, and Security; mentor junior developers and participate in code reviews and design sessions.
- 7–10+ years of hands-on experience building Oracle Payroll integrations in enterprise environments.
- Deep practical knowledge of Oracle Payroll data structures, including payroll results, costing, balances, elements, run actions, retro, and year‑end reporting, and proficiency querying the underlying payroll tables/schemas (PAY*/PY*).
- Advanced PL/SQL/SQL (packages, procedures, functions, bulk operations, performance tuning) and strong experience with HCM Extracts, HDL, Fast Formulas, and BI Publisher.
- Proven delivery using OIC or comparable middleware, plus REST/SOAP APIs, SFTP/file pipelines, and secure integration patterns.
- Experience with CI/CD (Git, build pipelines), automated testing, and secure secrets management.
- Strong understanding of payroll compliance (tax, garnishments, retro, audits), data privacy/PII, and financial controls.
