Hello everyone,
I have openings for both a senior DBA as well as for an entry-level DBA here
in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I measure senior not by years of experience but
rather by overall abilities, so please feel free to apply even if you don't
have years & years of experience.
We will happily sponsor a work visa for an exceptional candidate. Please
forward this message to anyone you feel might have an interest, please feel
free to re-post this message anywhere you feel is appropriate.
Top criteria:
-> Outstanding Oracle DBA on UNIX skills, especially SQL, PL/SQL, tuning,
modeling, config, etc.
-> Exceptional troubleshooting, problem-solving and learning skills
-> Superior productivity per hour and overall getting-the-job-done-right
abilities
-> Fluent communication skills in English, both written and oral
-> Oracle DBA on platforms other than UNIX a plus, so long as the UNIX
experience is there too
-> UNIX sysadmin experience a plus, RAC implementation experience a plus
-> Publications and presentations experience and interest a plus
-> Oracle Applications, SAP and Peoplesoft experience a plus

Server
Job highlights:
-> Work in an elite team of DBAs for an elite group of customers - you'll
learn more here in a year than in any in-house DBA job no matter how long
you stay; I personally guarantee it.

Oracle, including AIX, HP/UX, Solaris, Linux, Tru64, Windows, etc.

advanced queuing, advanced replication, every flavour of dataguard, RMAN,

media, dot-com, education, retail, services, and many more.

presentations and blog posts on company time, and pay for you to present
your research at any user conference in North America where it gets
accepted.
