About this Role
We are seeking an experienced Oracle Middleware professional to provide hands-on technical leadership for production operations across Oracle Fusion Middleware (FMW), Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle Service Bus (OSB), Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA) and Oracle WebLogic Server.
Based at SP Infocity, Pune, this is an Application Operations and production-support role focused on maintaining stable, available, supportable and well-monitored middleware services supporting Telecom BSS, OSS and enterprise application flows.
You will combine advanced technical troubleshooting with SLA/KPI ownership, incident and problem management, service governance, continual improvement, automation and AI/AIOps-enabled operations. The role requires 7+ years of relevant experience, including significant hands-on responsibility for Oracle FMW production environments.

- Lead day-to-day technical operations for Oracle FMW, SOA Suite, OSB, AIA and WebLogic production environments.
- Troubleshoot complex integration failures involving SOA composites, BPEL, Mediators, Adapters, OSB services, JMS/JDBC resources, web services, APIs and dependent BSS/OSS systems.
- Administer WebLogic domains, clusters, Admin and Managed Servers, data sources, JMS components, deployments and JVM health.
- Support AIA integration flows, including end-to-end transaction tracing, orchestration, interface dependencies, error recovery and production diagnostics.
- Analyse logs, threads, heap/JVM behaviour, connections, sockets, queues, backlogs and performance to isolate platform and integration issues.
- Drive performance tuning, capacity checks, resiliency validation, availability checks and disaster recovery readiness.
Incident, problem and service management

- Improve RCA quality, corrective actions and known-error management to reduce recurring incidents.
- Track SLA/KPI commitments across Incident, Problem, Change and Service Request processes, escalating risks early.
- Use MTTR, repeat-incident patterns, backlog, availability and failure trends to prioritise improvements.
Change and operational readiness
- Support production changes and releases through implementation validation, rollback readiness, pre/post checks and post-release stabilisation.
- Ensure new and changed middleware services have appropriate monitoring, documentation, runbooks, access, escalation paths and knowledge transfer.
- Support middleware patching, vulnerability remediation and lifecycle activities.
Automation, observability and continual improvement
- Automate health checks, validations, queue and service checks, housekeeping and operational reporting using Shell, WLST, SQL and approved automation tooling.
- Improve dashboards, alert tuning, log/event correlation and proactive middleware monitoring.
- Apply AI/AIOps capabilities, where available, to anomaly detection, event correlation, triage, root-cause isolation and knowledge-assisted resolution, with appropriate human review.
- Reduce manual operational effort, recurring incidents and recovery time while improving reliability and supportability.
Governance and collaboration
- Provide concise technical updates during operational service reviews covering stability, SLA/KPI risks, P1/P2 actions, capacity, automation and improvement priorities.
- Collaborate with Service Management, application, database, infrastructure, security, business and vendor teams.
- Mentor support engineers and improve runbooks, knowledge articles and troubleshooting capability.
Who you are

- Working knowledge of Unix/Linux, Shell scripting, Oracle SQL/PLSQL and WLST.
- Knowledge of SOAP/REST, XML, XSD and XSLT and message-based integration.
- Experience with logs, JVM/runtime diagnostics, queues, SQL and end-to-end transaction tracing.
- Experience leading technical restoration during P1/P2 incidents, RCA and Problem Management within SLA/KPI-driven services.
- Hands-on exposure to one or more monitoring tools such as Dynatrace, AppDynamics, Splunk, Kibana, Grafana or Zabbix.
- Understanding of high availability, resilience, capacity, disaster recovery and operational readiness.
- Ability to coordinate technical activities across application, infrastructure, database, network, security and vendor teams.
- A bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant professional experience. ITIL Foundation is preferred.
