    • Manage over 50 on-premise and cloud-based SQL Server databases in production and non-production environments.
    • Ensure availability, performance, and security of databases and execute backup/recovery strategies.
  2. Lead data migration initiatives from legacy systems into Azure SQL, Dataverse, and other cloud-native platforms.
  3. Implement data pipelines using Azure Data Factory (ADF), Logic Apps, or custom integrations.
  4. Design and implement data transformation logic, complex queries, and REST/API-based data movement.
  5. Support Power Platform data ingestion workflows and contribute to Power BI datasets where applicable.
  6. Security & Compliance:
    • Implement encryption, secure PII/cardholder data, and ensure GDPR/PCI DSS compliance.
    • Maintain documentation and audit trails for data lineage, data protection, and retention.
  7. DevOps & CI/CD:
    • Collaborate with Engineering to build database release pipelines and promote Infrastructure-as-Code practices via Azure DevOps (Git, Pipelines).
    • Participate in HA/DR testing and architecture validation.
Technical Skills Required:
  • 5+ years' experience with Microsoft SQL Server
  • Experience with:
    • Azure SQL Database, Azure Blob/Queue storage, Key Vault
    • Azure Data Factory (ADF), Synapse (nice to have), Logic Apps, APIs
    • Dataverse & Power Platform integrations
    • ETL design, testing, and performance tuning
    • Backup/restore operations, performance profiling, and indexing strategies
    • Data architecture best practices (normalization, partitioning, sharding, etc.)
Experience with the following is an advantage:
  • Experience with API-based data movement (REST/OData/JSON)
  • Implementing backup and data purging solutions in line with data retention policies
  • Encrypting and protecting PII data and card data to comply with GDPR & PCI DSS
  • Experience designing and supporting multi-tenant database architectures
  • Ability to field audit, security and data retention questions and furnish responses
  • Setting up and testing failover for HA and DR architectures
  • Azure Dev Ops - Source Control (TFS/Git), Build and Release Pipelines
  • PAAS and IAAS offerings - App Services, Azure SQL DB, VM Scale Sets
  • Any experience with document based or non-sql databases
Soft Skills
  • A keen eye for detail, establishing high standards and consistency of execution
  • Independently analyze, identify root cause, solve and correct issues: providing problem resolution end-to-end
  • Ability to share domain and technical expertise and communicate clearly
  • Good communicator both written and oral.
  • Good team player, who thinks strategically
  • Understands and promotes the value of DevOps mindset
  • Wants to establish themselves as a trusted database partner because they understand the importance of data integrity from an operations and analytics perspective, and the direct impact they have on successful outcomes
  • Motivated, accountable and enthusiastic - demonstrates a bias for ownership and "get-it-done-right" personality
  • Comfortable with prioritization and multi-tasking - has an ability to organize and plan work independently
  • Flexible - as some administration jobs and scheduled maintenance/deployment are scheduled to occur after business hours
  • Consistent and understands the critical importance of data protection, data redundancy and database performance
  • Is self-motivated and enthusiastic - they have a bias for action and likes to get things moving
  • Is a team player
