We have partnered with a globally established organisation to hire an experienced Oracle Database Engineer for their database and platform engineering team. This is a hands-on position covering Oracle administration, automation, and performance engineering across large-scale Exadata and cloud environments, including Autonomous Exadata Cloud@Customer.

The role suits an Oracle professional who wants to move beyond routine administration into platform engineering: building automation that removes manual overhead, tuning at scale, and owning multi-tenant database architecture across mission-critical systems.

About the Role:

  • Build automation tooling and platform solutions using Ansible and scripting to reduce manual work across the database estate
  • Administer and tune Oracle RAC (11gR2-19c) and Clusterware, including build, troubleshooting, and ongoing optimisation
  • Own performance tuning at SQL, instance, and system level across production environments
  • Design and manage backup and recovery using RMAN, Flashback, Data Pump, and established migration methodologies
  • Administer Oracle ASM and Data Guard to support high availability and disaster recovery
  • Manage multi-tenant architecture, including PDB and CDB design and administration
  • Provide L3 support across Oracle Database and Exadata Cloud environments, including root cause analysis and permanent fixes rather than workarounds
  • Advise application teams on database performance, architecture, and product selection
  • Contribute to wider platform resilience and performance initiatives

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
