Oracle Analytics Cloud Developer

Job SummaryWe are seeking an Oracle Analytics Cloud Administrator who is a team player and has strong experience supporting Oracle ERP/Cloud system administration and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Core Technical Skills Fusion SaaS Connectivity & Reporting: Extensive experience connecting OAC to Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications (ERP/HCM) to access operational data in real-time. This includes deep familiarity with leveraging Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) subject areas and analyses as data sources within OAC datasets. Proficiency in utilizing BI Publisher (BIP) reports as data sources for more complex or pixel-perfect reporting requirements within the Fusion environment. Experience with BI Cloud Connector (BICC) for extracting data from Fusion SaaS into a data warehouse (e.g., Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse) for blended, cross-functional reporting and data transformation. Understanding of the shared security model, where OAC can utilize the security permissions and role assignments established in the source Fusion applications. Proficiency in OAC components: Data Visualization, RPD modeling, Data Flows, and Data Sets. Expertise in Advanced SQL and PL/SQL. Familiarity with data warehousing concepts, including schema design, ETL/ELT processes, and database architecture for scalability. Monitor and optimize the performance of OAC dashboards, reports, and data models by fine-tuning queries, managing data caching, and implementing best practices for handling large-volume datasets. Troubleshoot and resolve performance issues related to report generation, data extraction, and database bottlenecks using tools such as SQL Tuning Advisor and Explain Plan analysis. Design and implement efficient data loading and extraction strategies (using tools like BICC or OIC) to manage data pipelines for large-scale data solutions. Advise on data partitioning, indexing, and materialized views to improve query execution speed and overall system responsiveness. External Database Integration: Hands-on experience in connecting OAC to a variety of external, non-Oracle databases (such as SQL Server or other cloud databases like Azure/Google) using native connectors or JDBC drivers. Expertise in configuring Remote Data Connectivity using the OAC Data Gateway for secure, live data access to on-premise data sources. Experience with connection types, network security groups (NSGs), and private access channels within OCI to ensure secure and reliable communication between OAC and private or on-premise databases. Ability to design solutions that blend data from various sources (Fusion SaaS, external databases, flat files) into cohesive datasets and visualizations for comprehensive analysis. Data Security & Governance: Expertise in establishing and enforcing robust data security and governance frameworks across the entire Oracle Analytics Cloud and Oracle Fusion ecosystem. Application & Data Security (OAC): Implementing fine-grained access controls within OAC, managing application roles, catalog permissions, and data filters to ensure users only view data relevant to their security context. Configuring security settings to ensure that the security model defined in the source Oracle Fusion Applications (e.g., HR role hierarchies in HCM, data access sets in ERP) is respected when accessing data via OTBI or BICC extractions. Utilizing data masking and encryption best practices to protect sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII/PHI) within data sets and warehouses used for analytics. Governance & Compliance: Defining and documenting governance policies for OAC content lifecycle management, data lineage, and audit logging to meet regulatory requirements (e.g., SOX, GDPR). Experience with monitoring data usage, access patterns, and policy compliance using OAC and OCI audit logs and reporting tools. Ensuring system configurations adhere to established security zones and corporate security standards within the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) environment. Compartment Strategy: Ability to leverage OCI compartment management for logical isolation of OAC instances and data resources to enhance security and governance posture. AI and Machine Learning Integration: Leverage OAC's embedded ML and AI capabilities to build predictive models, perform anomaly detection, and generate data-driven insights. Utilize the OAC AI Assistant for natural language querying and data visualization generation to enhance user accessibility and productivity. Integrate and deploy Machine Learning models developed using tools like Oracle Machine Learning (OML) or Python/R into OAC dashboards to support advanced analytics and forecasting. Experience: Minimum of 6-8 years in BI and analytics, with at least 3-4 years specifically with Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC). Proven experience as an OAC Administrator, responsible for environment management, security, and lifecycle management tasks. Experience in designing end-to-end reporting solutions within the Oracle Cloud environment. Expertise in OAC development, data modeling, performance tuning, and integrating various data sources. Education: A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field Certifications Relevant Oracle certifications are highly valued, such as Oracle Analytics Cloud Certified Professional Job Types: Full-time, Contract Pay: $55.00 - $65.00 per hour Benefits: Dental insurance Health insurance Vision insurance Experience: Power BI: 6 years (Required) Oracle Analytics: 3 years (Required) OAC Administrator : 3 years (Required) ERP systems: 4 years (Preferred) Work Location: Remote
