Database Administrator

We're looking for a Database Administrator who doesn't just keep systems alive; you make them reliable, secure, and ready for what's next. At Aviture, we build software that has to work. Government systems, commercial platforms, high-stakes environments where downtime isn't just inconvenient. It's unacceptable. That means the data layer matters. A lot. We're looking for someone who can own that layer end-to-end: from keeping legacy systems stable to helping modern platforms scale. This role is a part of a remote program, but you won't be working in a vacuum. You'll be embedded with delivery teams supporting real programs, starting with a large-scale recruiting system used worldwide. It's a mix of old and new: an Oracle-backed legacy platform alongside a transition to modern CRM systems like Salesforce. Your job is to keep everything running while helping us move things forward, without breaking what already works. This isn't a "set it and forget it" database role. This is hands-on, in the weeds, making sure the foundation holds while everything around it evolves. What You'll Actually Be Doing: - Managing and administering database environments across applications by provisioning, configuring, and tuning for performance that holds up under real use. - Keeping legacy Oracle systems stable and secure while supporting modernization efforts and system transitions. - Planning and executing database patching and upgrades without disrupting mission-critical operations. - Designing and maintaining backup and recovery strategies that actually work when you need them. - Monitoring database health, performance, and availability, and fixing problems before anyone else notices them. - Implementing and enforcing database security controls (access, auditing, encryption) in regulated environments. - Working closely with developers, DevOps, and program teams to make sure data systems support how applications are actually built and used. - Documenting what matters so that
