Senior Oracle Platform Architect (part-time consulting)

N-iX is looking for an Oracle Platform Architect to join a strategic initiative focused on evaluating whether the Service Provider (SP) model can be supported within the Oracle ecosystem — without automatically extending the current PAH licensing footprint. This role requires deep expertise in Oracle enterprise architecture and cloud deployment models to assess Oracle-native strategic and architectural options.

The architect will lead an assessment of Oracle-based alternatives and deployment scenarios, with a focus on licensing, operations, and architectural constraints. The goal is to determine whether the SP model can be supported efficiently within Oracle while minimizing footprint expansion.
