As a Senior Database Administrator, you’ll be the technical leader driving reliability, scalability, and security across our enterprise data ecosystem. You’ll design and tune high-availability systems, guide our database and cloud strategy, and mentor the next generation of DBAs — all while shaping how data powers our business.

Design and maintain high-availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR) solutions — think Oracle RAC, Data Guard, SQL Always-On, and PostgreSQL replication.
Lead performance tuning initiatives using AWR, ASH, SQL Trace, TKPROF, and advanced optimizer tools.
Architect enterprise-wide backup and recovery strategies using RMAN, Data Pump, and GoldenGate.
Drive database modernization in AWS (RDS, Aurora, EC2) and OCI (Autonomous DB, Exadata Cloud).
Implement advanced security controls (TDE, Unified Auditing, Database Vault) aligned with GDPR/HIPAA/SOX.
Partner with engineers and architects to design scalable schemas and ensure data integrity.
Leverage automation, scripting, and even AI/ML-based tools for predictive performance and incident prevention.
Mentor junior DBAs, lead key initiatives, and influence the future of our database and cloud strategy.

Deep expertise in Oracle PL/SQL, SQL Server (T-SQL), and PostgreSQL tuning and administration.
Hands-on experience with HA/DR, RMAN, GoldenGate, Data Guard, and cross-platform migrations.
Strong shell scripting and automation skills for proactive monitoring and optimization.
Proven success managing cloud-based databases (AWS, OCI) — from setup to security and cost optimization.
Solid understanding of database security frameworks, encryption, and compliance requirements.
A collaborative mindset — able to communicate complex technical concepts clearly and mentor others.

Knowledge of NoSQL databases (MongoDB, DynamoDB, Redis) is a plus.
