Oracle EBS Database Administrator
Department: IT
Reports to: DBA Architect & Technical Lead
Employment type: Contract
Level: Mid to Senior
About the Role
We are looking for an Oracle Database Administrator to help own and operate the Oracle E-Business Suite platform that runs our core business operations. This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally comfortable inside a multitenant 19c database at 2 a.m. during a clone refresh and writing the Python that automates the same task so it never needs doing by hand again.
You will work directly with our Technical Lead across production and non-production environments, taking ownership of day-to-day database operations while contributing to our growing toolkit of monitoring dashboards, automation scripts, and AI-assisted operations tooling. The setting is deep and well-instrumented, so curiosity and a bias toward root-cause analysis matter more than memorized runbooks.
What You'll Work On
Administer Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 running on Oracle Database 19c (multitenant CDB/PDB)
across production and non-production environments on RHEL / Oracle Linux.
Run and improve our clone and refresh pipelines — Cohesity-based restores, RMAN DUPLICATE, PDB unplug/relocate, point-in-time recovery, and the post-clone reconfiguration that comes with it (credential remaps, directory objects, integration endpoints, SGA/PGA sizing for target hardware).
Diagnose and resolve performance problems end to end: AWR/ASH analysis, SQL tuning, cursor-sharing and child-cursor issues, blocking-lock investigation, concurrent-request contention, and capacity planning for tablespaces and memory.
Maintain database security and compliance — privilege and role-chain audits, least-privilege remediation on custom schemas, and keeping our security posture snapshots current.
Support integration points that depend on the database (e.g., Boomi, Fivetran, Power BI, third-party tax services) and help offload heavy reporting reads where appropriate.
