Senior Database Administrator — Oracle (M/F)

Mission with perspective of evolution towards a CDI

Job context

To accompany the growth of needs, we are looking for an experienced DBA to strengthen a team of 7 people and contribute to a better distribution of the operational workload.

You will progressively take over activities currently handled by another entity. Your arrival will also support two employees mobilized on Cloud environments, whose availability for database administration is reducing.

The position involves a strong operational dimension initially, with the possibility of subsequently taking part in projects.

Your missions

• Ensure the administration and maintenance in operational conditions of Oracle, SQL Server and PostgreSQL databases.
• Guarantee their availability, reliability and performance.
• Perform supervision, maintenance operations, backups and restorations.
• Diagnose and resolve incidents, in collaboration with technical teams.
• Take over existing activities and ensure the transfer of knowledge with colleagues from Luxembourg.
• Document procedures and contribute to the improvement of exploitation practices.
• Participate in the support and on-call system.
• Contribute progressively to projects for the evolution of database environments.

Profile sought

• Approximately 7 years of experience in database administration, with solid practice of production environments.
• Operational experience on Oracle (knowledge of SQL Server and PostgreSQL are assets), with an autonomy adapted to handling current activities and incidents.
• Mastery of availability, performance, backup and restoration challenges.
• Rigor, sense of priorities and ability to intervene methodically during incidents.
• Team spirit and ability to take over an existing scope in collaboration with several interlocutors.
• Knowledge of AWS is an asset.

Residency in Switzerland is mandatory for this role

Organization and perspectives

You will join a team of 7 people and participate in an on-call rotation. On-calls are infrequent, but can require significant mobilization when an incident occurs.

The priority will be to strengthen the operational capacity of the team and stabilize the workload. Ultimately, the position could evolve towards more project activities, with a perspective of moving to a CDI.
