Hi All,

As someone with 10+ yrs in Oracle DB, what other demanding skills are required to make a move to Product based companies? What are the expectations for DBA role in product based companies?

It all depends upon the org and role u are applying for. There are no fixed set of expectation. I suggest focus on JD they provide with the opening. Thats sort of tells about there expectation. But be thorough with atleast 1 database tech and try to gain as much as secondary db tech knowledge. Like oracle with postgres is a good combo. Oracle with AWS.
And yes, not to forget about most of product based org has application dba kind of setup. So performance tuning is the key to crack there interviews

I dont think so any certification is required to be in technical managerial position. You just have to spend time is an org and move your wap up to the ladder.. probably compny might ask you for PMP certification. But that wont be of any use while applying for other org isntead of your current org

I’ve been on the bench with J1 for about 3 months. I was worried that because I couldn’t find another project, I would get laid off so I found J2, which pays more, is very meeting heavy, but I really like. I’ve kept J1 because I’m still on the bench doing absolutely nothing and getting paid. Thinking about looking for a role on a project with J1 that’s not along my career path but will allow for me to do work with no calls so that I can manage both jobs. Does anyone have experience or advice?
