• Clearly define the root cause of problems using defect reporting tools
• Validate customer data in destination systems
• Provide clear descriptions and feedback on tool performance for the RND team
• Complete database performance analysis, and tune runtime and data loading performance where applicable
• Consult and guide team on issues encountered
• Configure and populate relational databases on Linux/Windows or in the Cloud

All you need is...
• Experience working with Cloud Architects to implement AWS, Azure or GCP services.
• Familiarity with AWS, Azure or GCP good practices in relation to RDBMS deployment, monitoring, security and availability.
• 7+ years' expert experience with relational and transactional languages as a DBA (DDL, DML, TCL, etc.)
• 3+ years' experience modernizing mainframe data systems
• Experience with both Windows and Linux
• Understanding of z/OS and/or Unisys based database systems
• Understanding of IMS, VSAM, JCL, COBOL
• Familiarity with SQL language structures and performance tuning
• Experience with scripting languages (Powershell, bash, Python, etc.)

Why you will love this job:
• Creatively solve problems and collaborate in a remote work environment
• Your personal drive and problem-solving acumen becomes an asset, moving your client's infrastructure from the past to the future
• Build and inspire successful teams, by sharing your lessons-learned while learning from others
