This is week 3 at my new job as a remoteDBA, so I should change my handle as I never took the gig requiring air travel.

As I do this job I feel it is about all of the things Oracle is trying to automate and that the DW work I used to do was closer to the business. I think that puts you in a better position to do more value-add work.

This article talks about how the DBA must move towards the business and away from the low level tech chores.
