• Lead the strategy and execution of migrating and managing database workloads in managed cloud services across our multi‑cloud environment (heavy emphasis on AWS and GCP, with minor support in Azure).
• Analyze complex queries, optimize database server settings across both Oracle and PostgreSQL platforms, and leverage enterprise performance monitoring tools to proactively tune systems.
• Ensure databases comply with strict SOX guidelines. Implement encryption, access controls, and oversee quarterly account reviews. Maintain a general awareness of Oracle licensing and compliance to mitigate financial risks during the transition period.
• Determine and implement robust backup and recovery strategies (RTO/RPO), test automated failover procedures, and automate backup tasks using native cloud tooling.
• Provide expert, Level III escalation support for critical production incidents, including after‑hours integration support and on‑call rotations.

About You

• Experience in Oracle Database Administration (11g/12c/19c) across heterogeneous environments (Linux and Windows).
• Proficiency in PostgreSQL database administration, including hands‑on experience migrating enterprise‑scale workloads from Oracle to PostgreSQL.
• Proven track record of managing databases in multi‑cloud environments (strong proficiency in AWS and GCP is required; experience with Azure is a plus).
• Knowledge of or experience managing Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL) environments is a strong plus.
• General understanding of Oracle License Management Services (LMS) and compliance strategies.
• Experience with enterprise automated job scheduling and database performance monitoring platforms.
• Deep knowledge of database design, logical data models, and data normalization.
