We are looking for Engineers who can

  • Database Configuration & Management
  • Review and assess the overall database configuration, including clustered environments, disk space, memory allocation, and backup strategies.
  • Ensure proper configuration of backup time, location, retention policies, and validate the backup strategy aligns with Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO).
  • Indexing & Query Optimization
  • Analyze indexing strategies, identifying unused, clustered, or composite indexes, and propose optimizations based on application workload (read-heavy vs. write-heavy).
  • Identify and resolve indexing issues, such as missing indexes on primary and foreign keys, and optimize database performance through query refinements.
  • Disaster Recovery & High Availability
  • Evaluate and document the client’s disaster recovery (DR) plans, ensuring the latest DR tests are conducted, documented, and aligned with business continuity objectives.
  • Assess failover automation and manual failover documentation for robustness and reliability.
  • Identify and mitigate single points of failure, ensuring reliable crossover mechanisms between master and standby nodes for high availability.
  • Bottleneck Identification & Database Optimization
  • Conduct performance reviews to identify and address query and database bottlenecks, especially related to read/write operations.
  • Evaluate the appropriateness of the database model (e.G., RDBMS vs. NoSQL) and recommend optimizations for auto-growth, auto-shrink, and resource utilization settings.
  • Schema & Query Review
  • Perform detailed reviews of database schemas, entity-relationship diagrams (ERD), and version control for schema changes.
  • Ensure that all database keys (primary, foreign) are in place, and review query execution plans for optimization opportunities.
  • Metrics & Performance Monitoring
  • Analyze database performance metrics, including throughput, query execution time, concurrency, and overall resource utilization.
  • Provide ongoing monitoring and reporting to senior leadership on database health and performance.
  • Backup & Recovery Testing
  • Ensure comprehensive backup and recovery plans are in place and perform regular recovery drills to verify backup integrity.
  • Confirm backup SLAs are documented, and that backups are regularly tested by restoring them to a test server.
  • Client Interaction & Stakeholder Management
  • Work directly with senior management and client stakeholders to present findings, make recommendations, and provide regular updates on database health and performance.
  • Lead meetings and presentations with a clear, concise, and results-driven approach, ensuring alignment with client objectives.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related field is preferred.
  • Experience:
    10–15 years of hands-on experience in database administration, focusing on large-scale, high-availability systems, and enterprise-level database environments (SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.).
  • Database architecture and clustering configurations
  • Backup and disaster recovery strategies
  • Performance tuning and query optimization
  • Indexing strategies, schema design, and entity-relationship modeling
  • High-availability solutions and failover strategies
  • NoSQL and RDBMS databases
  • Database monitoring and metric analysis
  • Proven ability to communicate complex technical concepts to non-technical senior management and stakeholders.
  • Experience in presenting findings and technical recommendations clearly and persuasively.
  • Strong interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage effectively with both technical teams and business executives.
  • Demonstrated experience developing, testing, and validating disaster recovery plans.
  • Knowledge of RTO and RPO metrics, and practical experience with failover automation and manual recovery processes.
  • Certification in database technologies (e.G., Microsoft Certified:
    Azure Database Administrator, Oracle DBA, etc.).
  • Familiarity with cloud-based database environments (AWS RDS, Azure SQL, etc.).
  • Experience with performance monitoring and database optimization tools (e.G., SQL Profiler, Query Analyzer, SolarWinds, etc.).
  • Analytical:
    Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to analyze database issues from both a technical and business perspective.
  • Leadership:
    Ability to lead technical discussions and guide teams toward solutions in a collaborative, efficient manner.
  • Client-Focused:
    Understanding of client needs, with the ability to manage expectations and deliver value in a customer-centric manner.
