- Performance & Diagnostics: Monitor system health, read error logs, and fix slowdowns, storage shortages, or system locks before they impact users.
- Cloud & Modernization: Help plan and carry out moving on-premise systems to modern cloud platforms like Oracle Cloud (OCI) or Azure.
- Infrastructure Support: Work directly on Linux and AIX server operating systems, writing simple scripts to automate tasks, manage server storage, and install updates.
Essential Skills
- Experience: 7+ years in enterprise Oracle Apps DBA & DB roles.
- Stack: Oracle EBS R12, RAC, AutoConfig, RMAN, patching & cloning.
- OS: Linux & AIX support + shell scripting (Bash/KShell).
- Troubleshooting: Cross-layer (App/DB/OS) problem-solving under strict SLAs.
Desirable Skills
- Hands-on experience with OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) or Microsoft Azure.
- Familiarity with database migration strategies, Oracle Data Guard, or Oracle GoldenGate.
- Exposure to WebLogic, AD/TXK utilities, or automation tools (Ansible, Terraform).
