Position Overview:

The Oracle Database Solutions Architect serves as the internal technical authority for the company's Oracle database ecosystem, ensuring that Oracle platforms are securely designed, properly governed, operationally sustainable, and aligned to supported technologies and business requirements.

This role owns solution architecture, standards, design review, compliance alignment, and lifecycle roadmap for Oracle technologies across legacy and modern environments, including Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) databases, Oracle Autonomous Databases, OCI databases, Oracle Wallets, security controls, Active Directory integration, Transparent Gateway connectivity, audit strategy, and Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM).

This role acts as the company's internal design authority and escalation point for our managed services partner, ensuring that vendor-delivered administration is consistent with enterprise requirements, supportability expectations, security standards, and long-term modernization plans.

The Oracle Database Solutions Architect is the final design authority for all Oracle database platforms and services to ensure that application and project teams deliver supportable solutions. The managed services provider is responsible for execution but must align with architect-approved standards and designs.

At Brunswick, we have passion for our work and a distinct ability to deliver.

* Maintain working knowledge and documentation of historical customizations, nonstandard implementations, integration points, legacy service accounts, and operational dependencies that may not be well understood by an external provider.

* Guide supportability decisions for EBS customizations, personalization, extensions, and database dependencies, with particular focus on reducing operational risk during patching, upgrades, and modernization efforts.

* Ensure architectural decisions for legacy platforms balance business continuity, technical debt management, and future-state migration planning.
