  • Troubleshoot performance issues and optimise database availability and resource utilisation
  • Develop Linux shell scripts to automate routine DBA activities
  • Support Oracle security, auditing, encryption and Data Safe implementation
  • Work with Azure infrastructure, networking, availability zones and DNS services

To be successful, you will bring:

Experience with Oracle Zero Downtime Migration (ZDM) and Oracle GoldenGate will be highly regarded.

Why apply?

This is an excellent opportunity to join a high-profile government transformation program and work on a complex, large-scale Oracle cloud migration rather than a purely BAU DBA engagement.

The roles offer ongoing contracts, competitive market rates and a Sydney-based working arrangement.
