Senior Oracle DBA
Do you have a keen interest and strong knowledge of Oracle database environments? Do you want to further deepen and specialise in this technology? In addition, do you have knowledge and/or sufficient interest to deal in depth with Oracle Engineered Systems (e.g.: exadata and ZFS platforms) or Oracle Cloud Infrastructure? Are you willing to make the necessary efforts to obtain the necessary certifications in this? Then Cegeka has a challenge for you! We are looking for an employee who can take on the database and DB machine management role. Cegeka is supporting database solutions for customers in an on premise model in our own data centers or remotely, but also increasingly within the public cloud (Azure, OCI, …). Thorough knowledge in this field is an added bonus. What does the job entail?
- Role as Database Administrator: (mandatory)You are responsible for the installations, upgrades and configurations of the Oracle database environments in order to successfully set up and manage the IT environment of the internal/external customer.
- You know most of the features of the latest database versions and can work with them according to the customer's requirements.
- On the basis of a rotation, you are responsible for the permanence and service to the end users to guarantee the agreed service levels. Sporadic work outside the traditional office hours is part of this.
- In a proactive and critical way you examine the IT-environment of the internal/external customers and you formulate the necessary improvement proposals. These can be in the domain of infrastructure improvements, as well as in the capacity to recommend code and application changes.
- You ensure up to date procedures and draw configurations in order to give the other engineers the necessary tools to guarantee the stability of the environment.
- You provide support for incidents with end users of the internal/external customer in order to limit or avoid interruption of the work.

- Optional knowledge as DB Machine Administrator: (nice to have) You will guide and supervise installations, periodic patching and configurations of engineered systems such as exadata on premise and ExaCC, ODA, ZDRLA or ZFS appliance according to customer requirements. You will be part of a more specialised subteam that will take on this task for several customers in a similar way.
- You know the features of these platforms and can apply them according to the customer's needs.
- Because of your specific expertise you are an advisor for fellow DBAs, but also for architects, (pre-) sales and project managers regarding the specific approach of Engineered Systems. You are willing to step outside your strict technical comfort zone to support other stakeholders with advice and guidance.
- Optional knowledge in OCI: (nice to have) Experience in setting up and managing environments in OCI are an important asset. The gradual expansion of our customer base in this domain provides additional opportunities to leverage this specialization.
