Cloud Operations Database Engineer

What you’ll do

• Administer production MS SQL Server databases: monitoring, patching, backup management and restore testing, performance tuning, and troubleshooting.

• Respond to alerts, identify root cause, and drive issues to resolution.

• Execute change and release work across environments under change control.

• Use AI tools to automate routine work and improve troubleshooting and cost efficiency.

• Grow into Oracle and broader cloud database coverage over time — with training.

• Solid hands-on experience managing production MS SQL Server databases.
• Working knowledge of Azure (AWS experience is a plus).
• Comfortable working day-to-day on Windows Server; Linux familiarity is a plus.
• Conversational English — you’ll work daily with US-based and global teams.

• A learning mindset.
• Oracle, Infrastructure as Code, or experience in a regulated environment are all nice to have — none are required.

AI steering & leverage

• Comfort using AI tools (Copilot, Claude, or similar) to work more efficiently on operational tasks.

• Bonus if you’ve used an AI assistant in real operational or engineering work — bring an example if you have one.

• We value the judgment to verify AI output before acting on production, not just familiarity with the tools.
