Database Administrator #2856

Oracle Database Administrator

Location : Dallas, TX - Hybrid 2-3 days onsite per week

Contract Position : 12months (+extension or conversion)

We’re seeking a skilled and proactive Oracle Database Administrator (Logical DBA) to join our client’s high-performing data team. The ideal candidate will have strong Oracle and SQL Server expertise, solid scripting skills, and experience supporting large-scale data environments.

This role is more than just execution.  We really need someone who asks the right questions, contributes to decisions, and collaborates cross-functionally to maintain clean, optimized, and governed data systems. You’ll support enterprise-level Oracle, Exadata, SQL Server, and emerging MongoDB environments across ODS databases and data warehouses. Key areas include query optimization, scripting, security, and long-term data governance. The team is fast-paced, collaborative, and values curiosity, ownership, and problem-solving. New team members should expect a steep but rewarding learning curve, gaining hands-on experience with real-time data, scripting, governance, and cross-functional collaboration in a dynamic hybrid environment.

Qualifications :

• 5+ years of hands-on physical / logical DBA experience in Oracle, SQL Server, and Exadata environments
• Strong experience supporting large-scale data environments (80–150 TB), including data warehouses and ODS databases
• Demonstrated ability to ask critical questions and engage as a problem-solver, not just a task executor
• Proficient in Shell scripting (required); scripting for retention, automation, and monitoring is essential
• Strong understanding of performance tuning, partitioning, and optimization techniques
• Familiarity with containerized databases (CDB / PDB) and hybrid data architectures
• Working knowledge of database installs, restores, and backups
• Experience with MongoDB is highly desirable
• Some previous exposure to SaaS and cloud-based platforms is a plus
• Familiarity with Agile methodology and using Jira for work tracking is a must
• Strong communication, documentation, and teamwork skill
• Hybrid Columnar Compression (HCC) and Advanced Compression experience is preferred
• Experience with MDM, Hadoop, or data governance tooling
• Some familiarity with cloud migration strategies and hybrid data ecosystems
• Experience with tools like SQL Server Management Studio, Oracle SQL Developer, TOAD, or DBeaver
