Oracle Oracle Unifier Solution Architect (Hands-On Configuration Lead) in Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Job Description
We are seeking a highly technical, hands-on Oracle Unifier Solution Architect to lead the design, configuration, and implementation of our enterprise PMIS platform supporting a multi-billion-dollar capital projects program.
This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who operates at an architect level but remains deeply involved in system configuration and build. You will own the Unifier environment end-to-end—translating complex business requirements into scalable system solutions—while leading external consultants and aligning a broad set of stakeholders.
This role is ideal for someone who prefers building over managing but can still lead through expertise and influence.
Responsibilities:
System Architecture & Design
Define the overall Unifier system architecture, data structures, and configuration strategy
Design scalable solutions aligned to program needs across cost, change, contracts, and reporting
Establish standards for CBS, workflows, forms, and governance frameworks

Personally configure and deploy Unifier business processes (BPs), workflows, and forms
Build and optimize:
Cost management (budgets, commitments, actuals, accruals, EAC)
Change management workflows
Contract and invoice management processes
Funding and cashflow tracking
RFI and project workflows
Ensure system performance, usability, and data integrity
Implementation & Delivery
Own the end-to-end implementation lifecycle (design, build, test, deploy, iterate)
Drive rapid implementation with an MVP mindset, balancing speed with long-term scalability
Lead system testing, issue resolution, and continuous improvement
Stakeholder Leadership
Partner with Program Controls, Finance, Construction, and Technology teams to translate requirements into system solutions
Lead and coordinate external consultants and system integrators
Act as the central point of accountability for Unifier delivery
Integration & Data Strategy
Support integration with:
Scheduling platforms (e.g., Primavera Cloud)
ERP systems (e.g., Oracle Fusion)
Data lake / reporting environments
Ensure alignment of system data structures across platforms
Communication & Governance
Provide clear, executive-level updates on system progress, risks, and decisions
Drive alignment across stakeholders in a fast-paced, evolving environment
Establish and enforce system governance and best practices
Responsibilities
Required Qualifications
15+ years of experience in enterprise system implementation, with deep expertise in Oracle Unifier
Proven track record of hands-on configuration and deployment of Unifier (not just oversight)
Advanced experience with:
uDesigner (business processes, workflows, forms)
Cost and project management system configuration
Data structures and governance frameworks
Demonstrated ability to architect and deliver enterprise-scale PMIS solutions
Strong project management and delivery discipline in complex environments
Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, including executive interaction
Experience leading consultants and cross-functional teams without direct authority
Must be based in the United States
Preferred Qualifications
Experience supporting large-scale capital programs (e.g., infrastructure, data centers, construction)
Familiarity with Primavera Cloud (OPC) or other scheduling tools
Experience integrating Unifier with ERP systems (Oracle Fusion or similar)
Background in project controls or cost management systems (preferred, not required)
Leadership Profile:
Hands-on builder who enjoys configuring systems directly
Operates as a technical leader without relying on formal authority
Brings structure to ambiguity and drives outcomes in fast-paced environments
Balances speed, precision, and scalability
Comfortable working extended hours to meet critical delivery milestones
