Job title: Senior Oracle DBA
Built ExaCC from the ground up and moved real workloads onto it? A leading organization in the energy and utilities sector wants you to do it again — as the hands-on DBA behind its new enterprise database platform. This is a 12-month contract (November 2026 to November 2027) on a multi-year initiative to implement and operationalize Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer as the enterprise database platform for multiple applications and business services. You won't be maintaining someone else's setup. You'll take ExaCC from provisioning and readiness checks through database migration, onboarding, stabilization and the handover to production operations. Working onsite in Calgary 4 days a week, you'll partner closely with application owners and project stakeholders, run migrations and cutovers, and build the high-availability and DR foundation the business will rely on for years. If you're the DBA who knows exactly when to reach for RAC, Data Guard or GoldenGate, this one is built for you.
