- Maintain and troubleshoot Oracle GoldenGate replication, including lag, connectivity, missing records, transaction consistency, failover, and recovery between PRISM and OBIWAN-related environments.
- Implement and validate Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) backup, restoration, recovery, control-file, archive-log, and disaster-recovery procedures; routinely test recoverability and remediate backup failures.
- Monitor and tune CPU, memory, I/O, sessions, waits, queries, indexes, execution plans, redo logs, tablespaces, jobs, and workload patterns using Oracle Enterprise Manager, AWR, and other approved tools.
- Support Oracle Exadata X9 and database-related infrastructure activities, including migrations, patching, service requests, capacity planning, diagnostics, and coordination with infrastructure or Oracle support personnel.
- Maintain accurate database architecture diagrams, schema and interface documentation, data dictionaries, operational procedures, reconciliation instructions, remediation records, configuration baselines, and runbooks.
