The Senior Oracle Database Administrator serves as a key technical leader responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining enterprise database platforms across both on-premises systems and cloud providers. This position requires advanced knowledge of Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer (ExaCC) within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), along with significant expertise in Oracle DBA practices.

Strong experience with AWS data services such as Aurora Global Database, RDS (MySQL and PostgreSQL), and Microsoft SQL Server is highly valued, as these technologies form part of the current ecosystem. The Senior DBA will focus on database performance, resiliency, disaster recovery, and security, while also guiding less experienced team members and working closely with engineering, security, and operations groups. The role blends strategic planning with hands-on execution, ensuring critical systems align with organizational priorities.

Core Responsibilities

  • Design and support database environments across OCI, AWS, and hybrid infrastructures.
  • Oversee deployment and tuning of Oracle ExaCC as well as GoldenGate replication solutions.
  • Architect and manage clustered, active-active, and global database implementations, including Oracle RAC.
  • Develop and enforce security standards in collaboration with cybersecurity teams.
  • Define and monitor recovery metrics (RTO/RPO) across diverse database platforms.
  • Manage patching, upgrades, and performance improvements for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, Oracle, and analytic tools such as QLIK.
  • Partner with development, cloud engineering, and infrastructure teams to deliver scalable solutions.
  • Act as a subject-matter expert in enterprise projects requiring database expertise.
  • Drive root cause analysis and resolution for complex operational issues.
  • Mentor junior and mid-level administrators, supporting skill development and career growth.
  • Ensure compliance with industry regulations and internal governance requirements.
  • Plan for capacity growth and conduct stress or synthetic testing for reliability.
  • Integrate enterprise databases with analytics platforms such as QLIK and other BI tools.
  • Provide technical leadership in projects from concept through delivery.
  • Manage in-memory datastore solutions including Redis and AWS ElastiCache.

Required Skills and Knowledge

  • Advanced expertise in Oracle ExaCC, RAC, and GoldenGate replication.
  • Practical experience managing production PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MSSQL environments.
  • Strong background in cloud-native services including AWS RDS and Aurora Global Database.
  • Skilled in designing high-availability, clustered, and geographically distributed systems.
  • Deep knowledge of database security (encryption, auditing, identity, and access controls).
  • Strong automation and scripting skills with Bash, Python, SQL, and PL/SQL.
  • Excellent communication, leadership, and cross-team collaboration abilities.
  • Capable of independently leading both enterprise projects and daily operational tasks.

Qualifications

  • Bachelors degree in Computer Science, IT, or related field.
  • At least 10 years of database administration experience, with 5+ years working in cloud platforms.
  • Professional certifications in Oracle, AWS, or PostgreSQL (e.g., OCP, AWS Database Specialty).

Preferred Qualifications

  • Masters degree in a relevant discipline.
  • Experience with Talend or QLIK Replicate for data integration.
  • Direct experience with AWS and OCI infrastructure.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and DevOps practices for database deployment.
