• Design and optimize VM layouts on Exadata (KVM/OEDA) based on specific workload and performance requirements.

• Collaborate with core infrastructure teams on resource allocation, networking, and storage configurations to ensure high availability and scalability.

• Perform routine health checks, proactive patching, capacity planning, and performance tuning.

2. Database Migration, Upgrades & High Availability

• Lead end-to-end database migrations to Exadata, including planning, assessment, execution, and validation.

• Perform complex database upgrades and comprehensive patching (GI, RDBMS, PSU/CPU) alongside post-migration tuning.

• Implement robust backup and recovery strategies using RMAN, Data Guard, and Exadata snapshots.

• Coordinate with cross-functional teams to ensure smooth maintenance cutovers with minimal downtime.

3. Database Cloning & Environment Refreshes

• Execute efficient database cloning using RMAN, Data Guard, snapshots, and storage-level techniques.

• Manage non-production environment refreshes to ensure total consistency across development, test, and QA systems.

• Drive efficiency by automating cloning and refresh processes wherever feasible.

4. Enterprise Application & Cloud Support (Preferred)

• EBS Support: Support Oracle E-Business Suite (R12) environments, including database tier tuning, patching, cloning, and assisting with ADOP cycles.

• Cloud Integration: Support hybrid architectures involving Exadata on-prem and cloud platforms (AWS/OCI). Assist with backup, disaster recovery, and migration strategies involving AWS (RDS, EC2, S3) or OCI (DB Systems, Exadata Cloud Service).

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Experience: 8+ years of experience as an Oracle DBA, with at least 4+ years dedicated to working directly on Exadata platforms.

• Core Tech Stack: Strong, expert-level knowledge of Oracle RAC, ASM, RMAN, Data Guard, and deep performance tuning.

• Migration Expertise: Hands-on experience with large-scale database migrations and environment management.

• OS Foundation: Solid understanding of Linux administration as it relates to heavy Oracle workloads.

• Availability: Ability to participate in an on-call rotation for critical production systems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting Oracle E-Business Suite (R12) modules and its underlying technology stack.

• Familiarity with AWS cloud services (RDS, EC2, S3).

• Experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), including DB Systems, Exadata Cloud Service, or Object Storage.
