  • Team & Environment
    • Organization has an application development team using Oracle APEX and PHP.
    • Training has been initiated for APEX adoption.
    • Current bottleneck is the database layer, with only one DBA supporting storage, packages, and DB needs.

    • This person will contribute to development (APEX/PLSQL) while also supporting DBA-related tasks.
    • Focus on hands-on development, not purely database administration.
  • Required Skills (Non-Negotiable)
    • Strong PL/SQL experience
    • Ability to build functions, stored procedures, and packages
    • Working knowledge of Oracle APEX
    • Must demonstrate practical ability (prior candidates struggled despite claims)
  • Candidate Profile
    • Avoid overly senior (20–30 years) candidates due to cost.
    • Prefer someone who can problem-solve.
    • Must be U.S.-based Visa and pass a background check.
    • Preference for local/on-site presence, will look at candidates who need to travel in 1-2x/month.
    •  
    • Open to trading hours for experience if needed.
  • Interview Process
    • Typically one interview round.
    • Second round only if needed (tie-breaker or soft skills validation).
    • Includes a practical PL/SQL or pseudocode task walkthrough.
  • Timeline & Logistics
    • Hiring goal: FTE, but starting as a contractor.
    • Team unavailable early July; target start date of late July / early August.
    • Interviews can begin next week.
    • Currently working with two vendors, no active candidates yet.
  • Key Challenges
    • Finding candidates who can actually demonstrate PL/SQL and APEX development skills, not just DB querying experience.
      • Also need to work in DBA capacity, creating functions, stores procedures, packages
    • Balancing budget constraints with required experience level.
