Job description
Cloud Technical Lead (Oracle HCM)
The Role
UST is searching for an Oracle HCM Cloud Technical Lead to serve as the primary technical authority across data strategy, data migration, and integrations for the full project lifecycle - from the initial payroll processing prototype through payroll implementation and deployment. The Technical Lead will own end-to-end technical solution design and quality, translating legacy payroll data structures and interface requirements into a governed Oracle Cloud HCM payroll target architecture.
What You’ll Do
· Direct the conversion methodology (source-to-target mapping, ETL, and pay-period-level reconciliation) and the integration build (API-based, file-based, event-driven, and batch patterns via Oracle Integration Cloud) across high-risk domains
· Manage payroll conversion across domains including pay plans, leave, tax withholding, benefits elections, garnishments, YTD accumulators, and accounting distributions
· Ensure the technical solution aligns with the program's security and infrastructure posture
· Partner with the security team on role-based access design, data-in-motion and data-at-rest protections, and FedRAMP/NIST SP 800-53 compliance across the OCI Government Cloud environment
· Coordinate with infrastructure/hosting resources on environment provisioning, refresh cycles, and disaster recovery readiness to support migration and integration testing
· Act as the client-facing technical point of contact, reporting on migration/integration status, risk, and readiness through governance forums
· Direct a technical team spanning data conversion and integration resources
· Partner closely with the Functional Team on requirements refinement, workshops design, and payroll configuration
· Partner with the deployment team to align cutover sequencing, environment readiness, and go-live execution
· Work hand-in-hand with the Test Lead across SIT, UAT, and full-population Payroll Compare Testing (PCT) cycles
· Ensure technical defects are triaged, root-caused, and resolved with full chain-of-custody documentation from legacy to Oracle results
This position description identifies the responsibilities and tasks typically associated with the performance of the position. Other relevant essential functions may be required.
What You Need
· 7+ years of Oracle HCM Cloud technical experience across data migration and integration on multiple full-lifecycle implementations
· Federal or large-scale public-sector payroll experience preferred
· Proven experience designing and executing large-scale payroll conversions (100M+ record scale)
· Experience directing technical teams through cutover/hypercare readiness and rigorous payroll validation testing
· Government contracting experience and consulting maturity
· Skills & Knowledge:
· Deep hands-on expertise with HCM Data Loader (HDL/HSDL), HCM Extracts, Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC), Fast Formulas, and REST/SOAP web services
· Working knowledge of Federal security and infrastructure requirements, including FedRAMP authorization levels, NIST SP 800-53 controls, role-based/least-privilege access design, and MFA integration with federal identity providers (e.g., USDA eAuth, Login.gov)
· Strong command of end-to-end technical traceability alongside functional Key Design Decisions (KDDs) and the Requirements Traceability Matrix (RTM)
· Strong stakeholder management and client engagement skills in a hybrid-delivery, regulated environment
· Ability to travel up to 10%
· Certifications & Requirements:
· Oracle Global Human Resources Cloud 2025 Implementation Professional (Payroll Cloud certification preferred)
· Must be able to obtain and maintain the required government security check
