About the Role
We’re looking for a mid to senior level MSSQL DBA with Oracle Apps/Oracle RDBMS background to own day-to-day database operations, performance tuning, high availability, and security across our SQL Server environments.

· Backup, Recovery & HA/DR+

o Implement and support HA/DR (Always On Availability Groups, Log Shipping, Failover Cluster Instances).
o Test and document disaster recovery procedures with defined RPO/RTO.
· Development Support
o Partner with developers on T‑SQL best practices, schema design, and code reviews.
o Manage deployments (SSDT/DACPAC, migrations) and support CI/CD integration.
o Optimize stored procedures, views, functions, and ETL jobs (SSIS or equivalent).
· Automation & Observability
o Automate routine tasks with PowerShell, SQL Agent jobs, and scripts.
o Maintain monitoring and alerting for capacity, performance, and availability.
o Produce runbooks, documentation, and knowledge base articles.
· Data Governance & Compliance
o Implement encryption at rest/in transit, data masking, and retention policies.
o Support audits and compliance (e.g., SOX, HIPAA, PCI) where applicable.
· Cloud & Modernization (as applicable)
o Support SQL Server in Azure/AWS VMs; familiarity with Azure SQL Managed Instance/Azure SQL Database a plus.
o Participate in migration or modernization initiatives.
Qualifications (Required)
· 4-7 years of hands-on experience as an MSSQL DBA in production environments.
· Strong knowledge of SQL Server 2016/2019/2022 administration, T‑SQL, indexing, statistics, and query optimization.
· Experience with Always On Availability Groups, backups/restores, and SQL Server Security (encryption, auditing).
· Proficiency with Windows Server, Active Directory, and networking basics (DNS, TCP/IP).
· Experience with PowerShell scripting and SQL Server Agent job management.
· Familiarity with monitoring/observability tools (native + third-party).
· Excellent documentation, communication, and stakeholder collaboration skills.
Nice-to-Have (Preferred)
· Experience with/exposure to Oracle Apps, Oracle RDBMS, Goldengate

· Experience with DevOps/CI-CD for databases (Git, pipelines, Redgate, SSDT).
· Scripting in Python or Bash, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform/ARM).
· Certifications: Microsoft Certified: Azure Database Administrator Associate, DP-300, or MCSA/MCSE (legacy).
