Manhattan DFIO – PL/SQL & Unix Batch Operations Analyst (6–8 Years) — Refined JD

Looking for a candidate with strong Oracle PL/SQL, Unix batch operations, RCA, and Manhattan UI configuration support.

Tools & Environment (Representative)

• Oracle DB, PL/SQL Developer/SQL*Plus or equivalent IDE; Unix/Linux shell; ticketing (ServiceNow); job schedulers; monitoring/alerting dashboards
  
  

Role Summary

We are seeking a hands‑on analyst/engineer who is strong in Oracle PL/SQL and Unix/Linux to own daily batch job monitoring, perform root-cause analysis (RCA) for failures and performance issues, and ensure end‑to‑end stability of data processing in a Manhattan (DFIO/SCM) ecosystem. The role includes publishing daily open items, prioritizing work by business impact, and collaborating with DBAs and the Manhattan product team to resolve outliers and configuration issues.

Key Responsibilities

• Batch Operations & Monitoring
• Monitor and manage daily/overnight batch jobs (Unix shell SQL/PLSQL steps); validate pre-/post-conditions and recover/rewind missed or skipped steps.
• Triage job failures, capture diagnostics, and execute reruns safely with appropriate approvals and documentation.
• Root‑Cause Analysis (RCA)
• Investigate failures by reviewing Unix logs, job runbooks, and database logs; pinpoint breaking step(s) and document the actual cause (e.g., data, logic, config, capacity).
• For each failure/performance incident, produce a clear RCA and corrective & preventive actions (CAPA); drive closure.
• Database Analysis (PL/SQL & Performance)
• Analyze PL/SQL packages, procedures, and functions implicated in failures; identify defects, data issues, or edge cases.
• Diagnose long‑running queries; obtain and interpret execution plans; coordinate with DBA for index, stats, and plan‑stability actions.
• Maintain and leverage an up‑to‑date entity‑relationship (ER) understanding of core tables and data flows across DFIO/SCM modules.
• Manhattan UI & Configuration Support
• For Manhattan UI configuration change requests, validate expected behavior in lower environments; create/execute test scenarios and capture evidence.
• For unclear or outlier behaviors, collaborate with the Manhattan product team to confirm product‑level settings and recommended fixes.
• Daily Operations Governance
• Publish daily open items and status across the team queue; prioritize by business criticality and SLAs; call out blockers and risks.
• Adhere to change/incident processes (e.g., ServiceNow: incidents, problems, change requests), maintain accurate runbooks and knowledge base articles.
• Quality, Testing & Readiness
• Create and execute system test plans for fixes and configuration changes; support release readiness and post‑release validation.
• Stakeholder Management
• Partner with business users to understand impacts and timelines; provide clear, concise communication on incident status, ETAs, and next steps.
  
  

Must‑Have Skills

• Oracle SQL & PL/SQL: Strong query writing, debugging, and package/procedure analysis.
• Unix/Linux: Proficient with shell scripting, log parsing (grep/awk/sed), and standard job orchestration (cron or enterprise schedulers).
• RCA & Troubleshooting: Demonstrated ability to read logs, trace data across tables, and isolate failure causes; produce actionable CAPA.
• Performance Tuning Basics: Reading execution plans, understanding indexing/statistics, and working closely with DBAs on remediation.
• SCM Functional Context: Working knowledge of Supply Chain, with exposure to Inventory planning and/or Demand forecasting processes (tool-agnostic).
• Process & Communication: Experience with incident/change management and structured status reporting to business/IT.
  
  

Good‑to‑Have

• Experience supporting Manhattan DFIO application (including after‑hours/incident support), understanding common processing/data errors.
• Familiarity with cloud data warehouses such as Snowflake or BigQuery for downstream analytics/performance considerations.
• Retail domain exposure.
  
  

Experience Range

• 6–8 years overall, with substantial time in PL/SQL, Unix batch operations, and production support.
  
  

Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems, or equivalent practical experience.
  
  

KPIs / Success Measures

• Reduction in repeat batch failures and mean time to resolve (MTTR).
• On‑time completion rates for critical jobs and adherence to SLA.
• Quality of RCAs/CAPAs and knowledge base contributions.
• Positive stakeholder feedback on communication and prioritization.
  
  

Work Model & Availability

Comfortable with shift coverage / on‑call rotation to support critical batch windows, as needed.
