Job description

Location: Vernon Hills, IL Salary: $120,000.00 USD Annually - $140,000.00 USD Annually Description:
Overview
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
  • Lead design, build, and management of Oracle 19c and EBS 12.2.x environments
  • 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%)
Required Experience
  • 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)
Why This Role
  • 80% project-based work (automation, modernization, cloud exposure) - not a ticket queue
  • Clear path from traditional DBA modern platform/cloud engineer
  • High-impact role with influence on architecture and strategy
  • Tight-knit, high-caliber technical team with strong standards
What To Do Next
If you're a strong Oracle/EBS DBA who knows staying stagnant isn't an option - this is your opportunity to evolve.
Apply now or reach out directly to start a conversation. The team is moving quickly and prioritizing candidates who are ready to step into modern data platform engineering.
