The DBA performs day-to-day technical database administration tasks. This includes database design, database structure identification, database schema definition, database access privilege management, database query optimization, documentation, database instance upgrades, long-range requirements, operational guidelines, and database protection.
The ideal candidate must possess experience in implementing and managing Oracle RAC with Data Guard, as well as enterprise DB on Linux or Solaris, and should also be capable of implementing and managing SQL Servers.

If you’re already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You’ll fit right in.
