  • Work with application and engineering teams to improve query design, schema structures, and transaction handling
  • Tune memory structures (SGA/PGA), I/O, and resource usage
  • Design and implement cloud-based database solutions using AWS RDS and OCI DBaaS
  • Perform hands-on migrations from on-premises to cloud environments using tools such as Oracle GoldenGate
  • Monitor and optimise cloud resource utilisation
  • Implement and maintain database security controls including auditing, encryption, and access management
  • Carry out patching and vulnerability remediation
  • Ensure systems meet compliance and regulatory requirements
  • Define and track technical KPIs related to database uptime, performance, reliability, and query efficiency
  • Use tools such as Oracle Diagnostics Pack, OEM, Zabbix, and Grafana to monitor system health
  • Perform detailed root cause analysis for performance incidents
  • Implement permanent fixes and automation to prevent recurrence of operational issues

Requirements

  • Senior-level Oracle DBA with strong hands-on experience in Oracle 12c/18c/19c, container/pluggable and autonomous databases
  • Track record of delivering in high-availability environments
  • Experience working collaboratively within DBA or infrastructure teams and supporting less experienced colleagues
  • Comfortable working across on-prem and cloud platforms, including AWS and Oracle Cloud
