Oracle EBS DBA

We're looking for a hands-on Oracle DBA with deep Oracle EBS expertise to help drive the evolution of a next-generation data platform. This is not a traditional DBA role - the majority of your time will be spent on modernization initiatives including automation, platform engineering, and cloud-aligned architecture.

If you're a DBA who wants to stay relevant in today's market and grow into cloud and infrastructure-as-code, this role is designed for you.

This is a hybrid role (Onsite 3days/week in Chicago's northern suburbs). Unfortunately, we're not a position to be able to provide sponsorship now or in the future. What You'll Do

• Drive automation initiatives across database and platform operations (Python, Terraform, Ansible)
• Support upgrades, migrations, and modernization efforts across on-prem and cloud environments
• Manage WebLogic Server lifecycle (install, config, patching, upgrades)
• Own performance tuning, backup/recovery, patching, and system optimization
• Contribute to architecture discussions and influence platform roadmap
• Build tooling to monitor and scale large distributed systems
• Support a mix of project work (80%) and operational stability (20%)

• 5+ years of Oracle DBA experience (hands-on, not managerial)
• Deep expertise with Oracle 19c (or newer) RAC on Linux/Unix
• Strong experience supporting Oracle EBS R12.2.x environments
• Proven WebLogic Server administration experience
• Strong Linux/Unix skills + shell scripting
• Experience building automation or monitoring tools for distributed systems
• Strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills

Nice to Have

• Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) experience
• Oracle Cloud apps (Fusion, EPM, OTM)
• Middleware stack (SOA Suite, ODI)
• Terraform / Ansible / Python
• Oracle certifications (OCP, OCI, WebLogic)
