• Identity and Access Management
  • Administer Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) for access control, user lifecycle management, and app federation.
  • Implement and maintain Single Sign-On (SSO) integrations with enterprise identity providers (e.g., Azure AD, Okta, Ping).
  • Enforce zero-trust security principles and manage authentication policies for SaaS and PaaS systems.
• Database and Platform Services
  • Manage Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) instances, including scaling, patching, and backup recovery.
  • Support simple PaaS deployments such as Oracle Integration Cloud, Visual Builder, and APEX.
  • Ensure reliable integration and performance between PaaS and Oracle SaaS applications.
• Support for Oracle SaaS Implementations
  • Collaborate with functional and technical teams during SaaS implementation and support cycles.
  • Provide operational oversight of environments supporting ERP Cloud, HCM Cloud, SCM Cloud, and related systems.
  • Troubleshoot connectivity, integration, and performance issues between OCI and SaaS environments.
• Monitoring, Automation, and Documentation
  • Configure OCI monitoring, logging, and Cloud Guard for environment observability.
  • Automate environment provisioning and patching with Terraform, Ansible, or OCI CLI.
  • Maintain comprehensive operational and architectural documentation.
• Experience with Government Cloud
  • Proven experience deploying and managing Oracle workloads in Oracle Government Cloud (FedRAMP High / IL4) environments.
  • Familiarity with security compliance frameworks such as FedRAMP, FISMA, and NIST 800-53.
  • Experience implementing identity federation, encryption, and auditing controls for regulated workloads.
  • Understanding of data residency and access control requirements in government or public sector contexts.
• CI/CD Setup and Scripting
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and application deployment using tools like GitHub and Jenkins.
  • Automate OCI resource provisioning through Terraform, Resource Manager, or custom scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell).
  • Integrate code validation, environment testing, and deployment approval workflows into pipeline operations.
  • Implement DevOps practices to improve repeatability, reduce downtime, and streamline SaaS environment rollouts.
