No and unfortunately for you Oracle is not open source and has a bad 
track record taking code submissions which is probably why nobody has 
written a proper systemd unit for it and pushed it upstream.

( you need to post to the original initscript along with any startup 
scripts in conjuction with that init script to so the proper course of 
action can be taken when migrating it to native systemd unit(s) use 
something like fpaste if you intent on doing that )

You would do so by creating an specific oracledb.target followed by new 
oracle instance units.

I'm not sure how much we should be involved with migrating that since 
it's closed source and we cant be held countable if our migration breaks 
your support contract hence it's probably best that you requesting new 
units and targets from Oracle support directly. ( which is probably not 
what you want to hear but meh )
