What You’ll Do

  • Monitor database systems to ensure uptime, security, and smooth performance for IT customers
  • Troubleshoot and resolve complex SQL Server issues in production environments
  • Create, maintain, and test backup and disaster recovery plans to safeguard business-critical data
  • Manage database maintenance, rollouts, upgrades, and system improvements
  • Implement and release database changes with accuracy and minimal disruption
  • Provide performance trend analysis that helps leadership make informed decisions
  • Stay current with new technologies and apply them to real business challenges
