Core Role: A hands-on technical expert responsible for the design, implementation, optimization, and high-availability of mission-critical Oracle database ecosystems, with a mandatory focus on real-time data replication.
Key Highlights:
Mandatory Specialization: Deep, hands-on experience with Oracle GoldenGate (Classic & Microservices) for replication design, management, and troubleshooting is a non-negotiable requirement.
Core Technologies: Expertise across the full Oracle stack, including Exadata, ExaCC/Cloud@Customer, RAC, ASM, Data Guard, and RMAN.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lifecycle management (install, patch, upgrade) of Oracle databases (11g to 23c) in complex environments.
- Advanced performance tuning using SQL/PL/SQL optimization and diagnostic tools (AWR/ASH).
- Ensuring high availability and disaster recovery via Data Guard and robust backup strategies.
- Designing, implementing, and managing GoldenGate replication across hybrid and multi-cloud setups.
- Managing and monitoring Exadata infrastructure.
- Cloud integration and automation using OCI, Terraform, and Ansible.
Experience Required: 7-12 years in enterprise/government settings, supporting high-transaction systems.
Critical Skills:
- Technical: Expert-level Oracle and GoldenGate skills, strong Linux/shell scripting.
- Soft Skills: Analytical, able to work under pressure in 24x7 environments, with strong communication and documentation skills.
- Certifications: Oracle OCP is a mandatory advantage; GoldenGate and Exadata certifications are highly preferred.
- Success Metrics (KPIs): Measured on system uptime, replication lag, incident resolution time, successful disaster recovery tests, and patching compliance.
