• Validate deliverables with utility operator stakeholders and support production deployments
• Collaborate within a multi-developer team using the Eclipse IDE

• ✅ Oracle Database expertise: PL/SQL packages, triggers, views, synonyms, schema design
• ✅ Pro*C experience: C programming with embedded Oracle SQL
• ✅ Unix/Ksh shell scripting experience in a production environment
• ✅ Ability to own the full SDLC independently — from spec to deployment
• ✅ Must be commutable to Binghamton or Rochester, NY
