Senior Oracle Platform Architect (part-time consulting)

About this role

<p><strong>N-iX is looking for an Oracle Platform Architect</strong> to join a strategic initiative focused on evaluating whether the Service Provider (SP) model can be supported within the Oracle ecosystem — without automatically extending the current PAH licensing footprint. This role requires deep expertise in Oracle enterprise architecture and cloud deployment models to assess Oracle-native strategic and architectural options.</p> <p>The architect will lead an assessment of Oracle-based alternatives and deployment scenarios, with a focus on licensing, operations, and architectural constraints. The goal is to determine whether the SP model can be supported efficiently within Oracle while minimizing footprint expansion.</p> <h3>Key Questions to Address</h3> <ul> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Explain_OCI_based_alternatives">OCI-based alternatives</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_cloud_deployment_models">Oracle cloud deployment models</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_service_provider_scenarios">Oracle service-provider scenarios</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Dedicated_Oracle_environments_for_SP">Dedicated Oracle environments</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Smaller_Oracle_footprints">Smaller Oracle footprints</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_to_Oracle_integration_patterns">Oracle-to-Oracle integration patterns</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Data_separation_strategies">Data separation strategies</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_licensing_operations_HA_DR_support">Implications for licensing, operations, HA/DR and support</span></p> </li> </ul> <h3>Required Expertise</h3> <ul> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_Enterprise_Architecture">Oracle Enterprise Architecture</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=OCI_database_services">OCI database services</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_cloud_deployment_models">Oracle cloud deployment models</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_HA_DR_architectures">Oracle HA/DR architectures</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_Data_Guard_replication">Data Guard / replication</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Large_scale_Oracle_environments">Large-scale Oracle environments</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Multi_instance_multi_database_architectures">Multi-instance and multi-database architectures</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Oracle_platform_modernization">Oracle platform modernization</span></p> </li> </ul> <h3>Expected Deliverables / Outcomes</h3> <ul> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Assess_Oracle_based_options">Assess Oracle-based options</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Reduce_or_isolate_Oracle_footprint">Determine whether Oracle footprint can be reduced or isolated</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Evaluate_Oracle_deployment_alternatives">Evaluate Oracle deployment alternatives</span></p> </li> <li> <p><span data-url="ca://s?q=Identify_Oracle_architectural_constraints_risks">Identify architectural constraints and risks</span></p> </li> <li><span data-url="ca://s?q=Identify_Oracle_architectural_constraints_risks">The role is offered on a part-time consulting basis, with a flexible level of involvement depending on the project scope and client needs.&nbsp;</span></li> </ul><div class="content-conclusion"><p><strong>We offer*:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Flexible working format - remote, office-based or flexible</li> <li>A competitive salary and good compensation package</li> <li>Personalized career growth</li> <li>Professional development tools (mentorship program, tech talks and trainings, centers of excellence, and more)</li> <li>Active tech communities with regular knowledge sharing</li> <li>Education reimbursement</li> <li>Memorable anniversary presents</li> <li>Corporate events and team buildings</li> <li>Other location-specific benefits</li> </ul> <p>*not applicable for freelancers</p></div>
