Oracle - FDI OAC ODI - Senior Associate

Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) Senior Associate (5–8 Years of Experience) As an ODI Senior Developer, you will work with technical and project teams to design and deliver enterprise-grade data integration solutions for some of our Fortune 1000 clients. You will have the opportunity to contribute to work that may involve building new ELT/ETL pipelines; migrating on-premise integration workloads to the cloud; modernizing legacy Data Warehouse feeds; and integrating Oracle Data Integrator with GoldenGate, OCI Data Integration, and other Oracle data platform services. Our teams have a diverse range of skills, and we are always looking for new ways to innovate and help our clients succeed. The primary focus of this role is to design, develop, and support enterprise data integration solutions using Oracle Data Integrator (ODI), Oracle GoldenGate, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Data Integration/Data Transforms, and Oracle Autonomous Database. The role involves developing scalable ETL/ELT pipelines, modernizing legacy data integration workloads, and supporting cloud migration initiatives.

Work You'll Do Responsibilities As an ODI developer, you will have multiple responsibilities depending on the project type. One type of project may involve migrating existing ETL/ELT workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. Another might involve building new integration pipelines directly within ODI, or modernizing them using OCI GoldenGate Data Transforms. The key responsibilities may involve some or all of the areas listed below:

• Design, develop, and implement ETL/ELT processes using Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) to extract, transform, and load data across heterogeneous source and target systems.
• Design and build reusable Knowledge Modules (KMs), including customization of RKM, LKM, IKM, and CKM for specific project needs.
• Design and develop ODI mappings, packages, procedures, scenarios, and load plans.
• Implement and manage ODI Topology, including data servers, physical/logical schemas, contexts, and agents.
• Migrate on-premise ETL workloads (ODI, Informatica, or other legacy tools) to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
• Integrate ODI with Oracle GoldenGate for real-time Change Data Capture (CDC) and trickle-feed data replication.
• Evaluate and support migration paths from classic ODI to OCI GoldenGate Data Transforms, Oracle's next-generation, cloud-native data integration service.
• Design and build data pipelines using OCI Data Integration / Data Transforms for serverless, auto-scaling ELT into Autonomous Database, Exadata Cloud Service, and non-Oracle targets.
• Work with Oracle Data Warehouse, Oracle Autonomous Database, and Autonomous AI Lakehouse as integration targets.
• Design and build integration workflows for Big Data ecosystems such as Hadoop, Spark, Kafka, Hive, or cloud-native data services.
• Understand and implement data quality checks, data lineage tracking, and error handling/monitoring using ODI Operator and OCI console tooling.
• Fix performance and reporting issues arising from migration to cloud-based integration platforms.
• Produce high-quality code resulting from knowledge of the tool, code peer review, and automated unit test scripts.
• Perform system analysis, follow technical design, and work on development activities.
• Collaborate with other developers, DBAs, and cross-functional team members.
• Participate in design meetings, daily standups, and backlog grooming.
• Develop and document unit tests.
• Identify, document, and mitigate risks.
• Monitor the health and performance of ODI/data integration services and cloud jobs.
• Document all processes, mappings, and procedures in assigned areas of responsibility.
• Update job knowledge by studying relevant tools and techniques, participating in educational opportunities, reading professional publications, and participating in professional organizations.
• Protect operations by keeping information confidential.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
• Participate in Scrum team meetings, including all Agile and Scrum-related activities.
• Optimize ODI mappings, interfaces, Knowledge Modules, and SQL performance to improve execution efficiency.
• Perform repository migration, version upgrades, and deployment across Development, Test, and Production environments.
• Configure and manage ODI security, users, profiles, and object privileges
