Job Description

Our client - a budding start-up that is profitable, growing, and going for a large round of financing to further enhance their IT infrastructure - is looking for a developer/specialist that is passionate for all things database.

Role:

You love data, databases and challenges. You get excited when you hear high velocity, big data, NoSQL and NewSQL (or others, like MongoDB, VoltDB, Vertica, etc). You're a DBA with a passion for problem solving, new technology and infastructures. You'll be:

  • Managing all databases and the infrastructure
  • Building a reporting platform
  • Performance tuning dbs
  • Optimizing queries
  • Preparing for disasters

And you'll be doing all of this on AWS. Since you love wearing multiple hats, experience or a willingness to learn more about DevOps and system administration is important. Strong background in MySQL needed, but any experience in the latest "bleeding edge" technologies is ideal!

Fun group to work with, including full medical benefits, beer pong and foozball, state of the art environment, huge loft space, open vacation program and more. For more details, please contact us today ~
