What I find amazing is that he is a "Vice President in the Oracle Government, Education, and Health group" or "Vice President of the Core Technologies Group" (not sure which came first). In my experience, corporate VP's spend most of their time at high level meetings, budget reviews, and almost anything else that isn't hands-on technical work, usually with responsibility for tens, hundreds, or thousands of employees.

Maybe it's different at Oracle... ;-)
