Overview

We are seeking an experienced HVR Solution Architect to design and implementing a secure, scalable data integration solution to replicate a Legacy Oracle DW data feeds using HVR technology within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This role sits at the intersection of data architecture, cloud engineering, and security governance, ensuring that data can be reliably transferred from source systems through the gateway into a newly designed OCI landing zone. The architect will review and understand the end-to-end solution, including connectivity and storage, and will review HVR documentation supplied by the supplier (BDUK) of the Legacy HVR feed to Legacy SDW1. They will install and configure HVR at the target end of a new feed. Overall, the role ensures that a compliant, production-ready landing zone and HVR integration capability is established, forming a critical foundation for the transition of data feeds from a Legacy Oracle platform to Oracle OC.
