The Senior Oracle/MongoDB Database Administrator (DBA) is a senior-level technical and administrative role responsible for managing mission-critical database environments. This position will lead the design, capacity planning, installation, configuration, clustering, performance tuning, and monitoring of large-scale Oracle and MongoDB deployments. In addition, the role provides consultative support to development teams on database architecture, design, development best practices, and performance optimization — driving improvements in scalability, reliability, and operational efficiency.

  • Analyze and document database infrastructure, hardware, and technology requirements.
  • Partner with development teams to review code and design for performance, scalability, and alignment with best practices.
  • Provide expert-level troubleshooting and root cause analysis for database-related incidents.
  • Mentor development and data warehouse teams on advanced SQL, PL/SQL, and MongoDB query optimization.
  • Continually improve DBA standards, procedures, and automation practices.

  • Experience with automation frameworks (Ansible, BitBucket, Terraform, or similar).
  • Experience with database monitoring and observability tools (OEM, SolarWinds/DPA, PMM, DataDog, Grafana).
  • Exposure to cloud-native environments (AWS, Azure, OCI, or GCP).
