Senior Software Engineer

Confidential

• Design and enhanced introspection implementations to allow environment-self-discovery and self-awareness to reduce number of manual inputs to the LCM tools
• Design and developed enhancements for LCM (Life Cycle Management) tools to support Oracle Cloud applications
• Researched, designed, prototyped, and implemented TDE (Transparent Data Encryption) and DatabaseVault support for existing Cloud Data Migration products (P2T, Cloning). Presented, shared, and adviced multiple groups on implementation of this solution (TDE, DatabaseVault, Oracle Data Pump, RMAN (recovery manager), Oracle 11gR2, sqlplus).
• Conceived, initiated, designed, and implemented an application that automated generation of complex configuration files involving 220+ properties and discovery from various components/sources, execution of P2T, and generation of common POD level troubleshooting tasks such as restoring databases, checking EM (Enterprise Manager) agents, and turning off certain features on-the-fly. This initiative saves an average developer cost of switching between tasks and 30-45 min on each execution, which is 5-7 times per feature tested (bash, Java, Python, SSH, SCP, EMCC (Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control))
• Conceived, initiated, designed, and developed POD maintenance application that automates maintenances of each unique POD to ensure POD environments’ stability and consistency via scheduled tasks to clear space, bounce VMs, restart services, etc across 10 hosts, all of which are blockers to enhancement/defect-fixes validations, and were cleared manually, costing developer an average 1-2 hours per week (bash, Java, crontab, SSH, SCP)
• Designed and implemented enhancements and defect-fixes for BBDP(Black Box Deployment Procedure), which parallel installs, seeds, and uniquely configures each instance of FA(fusion apps) on new PODs in Oracle Cloud to ensure security and legality compliances, and functionalities of Fusion Applications that services Oracle Cloud - software as a service platform. (RMAN, DB Catalogue, DB archive, EMCC, EMLMDP(Enterprise Manager Lifecycle Management Deployment Procedure), Oracle DB Snapshot with SunStorage, Java, bash, ruby, sqlplus)
• Liaison and coordinated amongst multiple stakeholders in the U.S. and India with different requirements and chased moving targets with tight deadlines for BBDP, as well as provided support of BBDP in Oracle Cloud
• Designed and implemented Cloning enhancements and enhancements via health checker platform to validate availability, correctness, and health of all required resources prior to rehydration and cloning. Cloning enables cloning of PODs, which host an instance of all Fusion Application (10hosts), in the Oracle Cloud. (OVM (Oracle Virtual Machine), Java)
• Designed, developed, and delegated among team members when necessary, enhancements and defects rectifications for P2T (an application that moves data from production to Test PODs in the Oracle Cloud) to support initiatives such as shared IDM, SSL, properties introspection and discovery, and certifications of other upstream components to ensure compatibility with these components. (Java, bash, EMCC, EMLMDP, Oracle Fusion Apps platform, ODB(Oracle Databases) )
• Initiated, conceived, researched, designed, and developed an application that automated POD OVM provisioning process (10+ hosts with VMs, DBs, and fusion applications on top of those VMs) that takes 2-3 weeks by error-prone manual process involving both POD specific settings discovery and various components from different sources. An estimated 100+ POD are provisioned in the development environment per month across all LCM groups. The 2-3 weeks process is streamlined to just 7 hours and from 600 to just 30 properties to provision a new POD, which saves developers weeks and makes a significant impact affecting all groups associated with Oracle Cloud. (Oracle Orchestration Framework - manifest driven framework, Java, SSH, bash, OVM, SunStorage, proprietary mappers, ODB, RMAN)
• Advised and gave guidance on creative solutions and architecture for other projects, such as P2T, Snapshot and Restore, Introspection.
