On behalf of a private sector client, we are looking for a Senior Data Migration Engineer for a database modernisation project.

The project involves migrating core databases from Oracle to PostgreSQL as part of a broader effort to modernise the client's engineering application ecosystem. The consultant will take technical ownership of the migration — refactoring database structures, stored procedures, triggers, and procedural logic, while also adapting .NET-based application layers for PostgreSQL compatibility. Alongside the database work, the role includes migrating legacy reporting solutions from Crystal Reports and SAP BusinessObjects to Power BI, and building automation tooling to streamline schema conversions and data validation.

The right consultant brings solid hands-on experience with Oracle-to-PostgreSQL migrations and knows both PL/SQL and PL/pgSQL well. Scripting skills in Python or C# are important for building migration pipelines. The team works across software engineering, DevOps, and business stakeholders, so the ability to collaborate effectively and keep downtime to a minimum during cutovers matters. A background check will be required for this role.

Location: Storkøbenhavn, hybrid (3–4 days onsite)
Workload: 100%
Start: ASAP
Duration: 6 months, extension possible
Language: English
