Database Engineer – 4D, Oracle, PostgreSQL Migration
CoformaWe design creative solutions and build technology products that elevate human needs.
• Own the migration strategy (from design and build to execution) for moving a proprietary 4D application database and an Oracle database into a consolidated, normalized PostgreSQL platform with no data loss and a verifiable cutover. • Reverse-engineer the source schemas, including a proprietary 4D structure with incomplete documentation, and design the target Postgres data model. • Build repeatable, automated, idempotent ETL/migration pipelines (extract from 4D and Oracle, transform, load into Postgres) that can be run, validated, and safely re-run. • Design and implement data validation and reconciliation to prove source-to-target parity: row counts, checksums, and business-rule spot checks. • Translate vendor-specific logic and constructs (Oracle PL/SQL, sequences, triggers, data types; 4D structures and exports) into Postgres equivalents. • Plan and execute cutover: sequencing, downtime minimization, and a tested rollback plan. • Document the target schema, the migration process, and operational runbooks so the work is maintainable after you. • Solve problems across the stack alongside other engineers including building new systems and improving existing ones, consistently applying best practices with a focus on accessibility. • Collaborate with teammates and government/client stakeholders, and work within agile/scrum: planning, breaking down requirements, refinement, and estimation.
