Oracle HCM architect

We believe that HR should be Digital-first and meet the expectations of the business and the workforce by enabling the organization to ‘Be Digital’ itself in the face of continuous disruption. As such, HR is undergoing a profound change. Once viewed as a support function that solely delivered employee services, it is expected that HR will actively contribute to the organization’s wider digital transformation. People Tribe brings together business and IT professionals into cross-functional squads and enables us to work in a truly agile organization. Each of these squads is a self-organized team that empowers its employees to make their own decisions while working on the end-to-end delivery of products and services. We are a team of committed and experienced professionals focused on excellence in high-quality software development.
