Experience:

8+ years of experience in SQL Server Database Administration, with proven expertise in managing large, mission-critical databases.

Strong knowledge of SQL Server high-availability solutions and clustered environments.

Proficiency in T-SQL and PowerShell scripting for database automation.

Extensive experience writing T-SQL stored procedures and performing query optimization and tuning.

Experience with cloud-based database solutions (Azure SQL and Cosmos) is highly desirable.

Experience with monitoring tools such as SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), SQL Profiler, Extended Events, and third-party tools (e.g., SolarWinds, Redgate).

Ability to interact effectively with resources from the functional and technical tracks on the project team.

Must be willing to work on-call as part of regular work schedule and when required.
