  • Support migrations (Oracle-to-Oracle, DB2-to-Oracle, Exadata, cloud/hybrid).

  • Ability to support HA/DR and migration cutovers with minimal downtime.
  • Strong customer-facing communication.
  • Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship now or in the future.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Exadata , OCI , and/or GCP .
  • Ansible / automation; ServiceNow ITSM; Control-M.
