Description
We fuse together exceptional talent who deliver outstanding software solutions.

Role Overview
We are looking for experienced DBA support following the departure of their internal DBA. The role provides hands-on administration for a mixed estate of legacy and modern databases spanning Oracle and SQL Server, running across a hybrid environment - cloud (primarily Azure) and on-premise. The estate grew through acquisitions, so it is fragmented, has little existing documentation, and currently lacks modern tooling and monitoring. The right person can investigate an unfamiliar environment and get to grips with it quickly.
Key Skills & Requirements
- Oracle database administration (essential)
- SQL Server database administration (essential)
- Azure cloud database experience, alongside on-premise - comfortable working across both
- Performance tuning & troubleshooting - diagnosing slow queries and debugging issues across multiple platforms
- Monitoring & health checks - able to establish good practice where modern tooling is currently absent
- Legacy system adaptability - supporting older business applications (AX 2009, Bifold, GUP, Dynamics 365, MTMS, and others); ability to investigate and reverse-engineer an undocumented estate
- Incident response - calm and effective under pressure, with rapid response during major/high-severity incidents that can occur at any time
Key Responsibilities
- Onboarding / discovery (approx. first 5 days) - investigate the current state of the systems and databases to understand what is there; begin building a knowledge base.
- Routine BAU - regular health checks and proactive monitoring.
- Reactive troubleshooting - resolving performance issues and debugging problems across the different database platforms.
- Major incident support - handling high-severity incidents, potentially out-of-hours via on-call / standby arrangements.
- Knowledge capture - documenting the environment to ensure continuity and reduce reliance on any single individual (pod model).
