Description

Why join us? Shape and deliver our enterprise SQL roadmap across on‑prem and Azure. Lead licensing optimisation, consolidation, HA/DR standards, and lifecycle upgrades. Work with modern Azure SQL—IaaS, Managed Instance, PaaS—with secure-by-design networking. Make a real impact on performance, cost, stability, and engineering discipline. Responsibilities Own on‑prem + Azure SQL platform engineering: configuration, standards, patching, monitoring, backup/restore, security. Drive consolidation and core-based licensing optimisation; reduce instance sprawl and improve cost efficiency. Manage SQL lifecycle upgrades, including in-place upgrades where appropriate.

Deliver clear RCA and implement durable fixes. Support and improve SSIS/SSRS platforms from an operational perspective. Lead Azure SQL design—MI, IaaS, PaaS—including scaling, cost optimisation, private endpoints, subnet separation, and firewalls. What will help you succeed in this role? Essential Strong experience as a production SQL Server DBA (infrastructure-focused, not developer-focused). Clear understanding of licensing, cores, consolidation vs. scale-up trade-offs. Hands-on with Availability Groups, performance troubleshooting, backup/restore, and DR testing. Excellent English with the ability to explain complex SQL concepts clearly (design, RCA, improvements). Solid Azure SQL knowledge across IaaS, MI, PaaS, including security and cost optimisation. Scripting (T‑SQL, PowerShell) for automation. Desirable Experience with SQL 2019 → 2022 → 2025 feature differences and upgrade strategy. SSIS/SSRS operational management. Exposure to storage/IO tuning, monitoring platforms, and infrastructure-level optimisation. Certifications in SQL or Azure.
