- Leading root-cause analysis on complex production issues using tools like SCOM, Foglight, and Splunk
- Partnering with application, infrastructure, and business teams on database design and performance at scale
- Guiding cloud platform modernization and large-scale migration initiatives (Azure IaaS/PaaS)
- Mentoring and technically leading a team of DBAs — code reviews, best practices, knowledge-sharing
What you bring
- 8+ years of hands-on database administration/engineering experience, with 3+ years leading or mentoring DBAs in an enterprise setting
- Expert-level SQL Server (AlwaysOn, Failover Clustering, SSIS/SSRS/SSAS) plus working knowledge of Oracle, PostgreSQL, Sybase
