  • Strong knowledge of T-SQL and PowerShell;
  • Proven experience in database performance tuning, troubleshooting and optimisation;
  • Hands-on experience with high-availability solutions, particularly Always On and Transactional Replication;
  • Experience supporting business-critical production environments and managing incidents;
  • Good understanding of IT infrastructure, networking and database architecture;
  • Experience administering Microsoft BI technologies;
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with development, infrastructure and operations teams.

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of cloud platforms such as Azure, AWS or GCP;
  • Familiarity with SQL Server 2022 and later versions;
  • Knowledge of PolyBase and Hadoop;
  • Development experience with C#, .NET, Angular or Rust, particularly in relation to monitoring tools and web-based platforms.

Languages

  • English;

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
