What You’ll Do
As an Oracle Database Administrator, you’ll manage, secure, and optimise mission‑critical Oracle databases in a high‑security public‑sector environment.
Your work may include:
* Install, configure, patch, and upgrade Oracle Database
* Manage backup/recovery (RMAN), monitoring, performance tuning, and DR.
* Administer users, roles, auditing, and security hardening.
* Support high‑availability setups (RAC/Data Guard).
* Troubleshoot incidents and provide on‑call support.
What We’re Looking For
We value people who take ownership, think critically, and enjoy working as part of a collaborative team tackling complex challenges. You don’t need to tick every box, but we’re particularly interested in people with skills/experience in:
* Strong Oracle DBA experience in secure or regulated environments.
* SQL/PLSQL expertise, Linux skills, and automation/scripting exposure.
* Experience with RAC, ASM, performance optimisation, and secure configurations.
* Familiarity with public‑sector security standards and operational controls.
Just as important are curiosity, strong problem solving ability, and the motivation to continuously improve how technology is designed and delivered.
