Your new company

I have been engaged by a specialist software provider to recruit a Database Engineer for their modern head office in Southampton, with a requirement to work on-site three days per week. This is an excellent opportunity to join a company that has thrived in recent years, making multiple acquisitions and now expanding their database team to support a multi-year modernisation project.


Your new role

As a Database Engineer, you will collaborate with a team of software engineers to design, develop, and maintain the database system for both new and existing solutions. The database will be utilised internally by the engineering teams and externally by customers for production applications.


What you'll need to succeed

  • Plan works to meet project deadlines, accommodate demands by development teams, set priorities and escalate issues appropriately.
  • Monitor database management systems as well as evaluate database performance to maximise efficiency.
  • Provide recommendations and participate in design sessions with engineering teams for data restructuring and performing complex maintenance.
  • Deploy and manage changes in lower environments, staging and production.
  • Perform scheduled maintenance.
  • Strong on T-SQL methods for optimisation of existing complex stored procedures for performance improvements and contention resolution
  • Manage database install, configure, monitor and upgrade in production and non-production environments.
  • Implement technical support for enterprise monitoring, backup, alerting and security compliance for SQL instances.
  • Proactive and reactive performance analysis, monitoring, troubleshooting and resolution of database issues.
  • Assist engineers and product owners with SQL queries and tuning.


What you'll get in return

The company offers excellent flexibility across the board, with no micromanagement. We seek someone invested in the cause, who will see their efforts have an international impact. The company is very supportive and will fund courses, qualifications, and conferences to enhance your skill set. Additionally, there is a generous benefits package, including private healthcare, dental coverage, and a good holiday allowance.
