Database Administrator DB2/MS SQL Server
About The Position
We are seeking an experienced Database Administrator with a strong AWS cloud background who will also work in Microsoft Azure environments to work on our W2 (We are unable to work with C2Cs or do sponsorships). The position is 100% remote from anywhere in the US, supporting our Huntsville, Texas client. The primary focus of this role is assisting with the migration of DB2 data to Microsoft SQL Server and maintaining SQL Server databases to support the client's primary database systems. This role will play a key part in the migration from DB2 to SQL Server, as well as the ongoing synchronization between legacy data sources and the CITS system. The legacy data source resides in Azure SQL, and the CITS system uses PowerPlatform CDS/Dataverse. You will manage a bidirectional sync between these data sources, handle data type conversions, resolve collisions in dual-source environments, and ensure overall system integrity. The ideal candidate will also support distributed applications that typically operate on batch updates, which will be impacted by the migration. Experience converting Oracle databases to Microsoft SQL Server is highly desirable, and familiarity with Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) is required.
