About this role
Meet the Team
The Cisco IT team is changing the way we run Cisco's operations by improving the power of technology, the best of business processes, and superior data insights. Together, we will Reimagine the Cisco experience, Reinvent applications, and Showcase the power of Cisco: our people, products, processes, systems, and data. You will be part of the Database Engineering and Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team responsible for operating and maintaining Oracle Database platforms.
Your Impact
In this role, you will combine database administration, automation, and operational expertise to ensure the health, security, and availability of Oracle database infrastructure. You will work under the guidance of senior team members to implement automation solutions, perform lifecycle management, and support the stability of database services across on-premises and cloud environments. This is a great opportunity to transform how infrastructure platforms are developed and managed with full software automation.
At Cisco, we're revolutionizing how data and infrastructure connect and protect organizations in the AI era – and beyond. We've been innovating fearlessly for 40 years to create solutions that power how humans and technology work together across the physical and digital worlds. These solutions provide customers with unparalleled security, visibility, and insights across the entire digital footprint.
Fueled by the depth and breadth of our technology, we experiment and create meaningful solutions. Add to that our worldwide network of doers and experts, and you'll see that the opportunities to grow and build are limitless. We work as a team, collaborating with empathy to make really big things happen on a global scale. Because our solutions are everywhere, our impact is everywhere.
We are Cisco, and our power starts with you.
