Description

This role represents the evolution of a traditional Database Administrator (DBA) into a cloud-focused data, engineering, and analytics specialist. The emphasis shifts away from legacy operational DBA maintenance (backups, manual patching, physical infrastructure) toward query performance optimization, cloud database configuration, workload remediation, observability, data analysis, and platform enablement. As a Cloud Data Analyst / Data Scientist (DBA Modernization), you will work within agile, cross-functional client teams—serving as the technical bridge between enterprise database modernization, modern cloud architecture,

Responsibilities

Primary Focus Areas

Query Optimization & Performance Analysis: Deep-dive workload analysis, indexing strategies, and SQL tuning for cloud database environments.
Cloud Database Configuration & Operational Support: Fine-tuning managed cloud databases (Azure SQL, Azure PostgreSQL, Oracle Cloud/RDS) for throughput, elasticity, and cost.
Application Workload Assessment & Remediation: Evaluating application data access patterns, identifying bottlenecks, and refactoring queries or structures for cloud scale.
Data Quality, Reporting & Analytics Enablement: Structuring modernized data layers to support business intelligence, advanced analytics, and data science initiatives.
Monitoring, Observability & Incident Triage: Establishing telemetry, dashboards, and automated alert systems for early issue detection.
Automation & Operational Efficiency: Implementing Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and CI/CD automation to reduce manual database overhead.

Key Responsibilities & Deliverables

Deliverables expected from the role:
Database Modernization & Migration Assessments: Conduct legacy database profiling (e.g., Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL) and deliver detailed cloud migration readiness and refactoring plans.
Query Performance Benchmarks & Tuning Guidelines: Produce optimized execution plans, query rewrite documentation, and re-indexing strategies to reduce latency and infrastructure costs.
Telemetry & Observability Dashboards: Build operational and health monitoring dashboards (using Azure Monitor, Datadog, Prometheus/Grafana, or native cloud tools) tracking query latencies, I/O, and throughput.
Capacity & Cost Optimization Reports: Regularly analyze cloud database resource utilization, recommend auto-scaling policies, and right-size compute/storage instances.
IaC & Deployment Scripts: Create reusable Terraform/Bicep scripts or automated CI/CD pipelines for database provisioning, schema migrations, and configuration management.
Analytics & Data Science Pipeline Enablement: Prepare, clean, and model modernized datasets to support downstream BI tools (Power BI, Tableau) or machine learning features.

Qualifications

5+ years of total experience working with relational databases, database administration, data engineering, or database performance optimization.

2+ years of hands-on experience in cloud database environments (Azure, AWS, or GCP) supporting enterprise application modernizations or migrations.
Technical Skills
SQL Mastery: Advanced proficiency in ANSI SQL, stored procedures, execution plans, CTEs, window functions, and database-specific dialect optimizations (T-SQL, PL/SQL, PL/pgSQL).
Cloud Database Platforms: Proven experience with managed database services (e.g., Azure SQL Database/Managed Instance, Azure Database for PostgreSQL, Amazon RDS/Aurora, Oracle Cloud DB).
Performance Tuning & Observability: Strong grasp of index strategy, execution plan analysis, lock/block troubleshooting, memory tuning, and monitoring tools.
Infrastructure as Code & Automation: Practical experience using Terraform, Bicep, ARM templates, Ansible, or CloudFormation for database automation.
Data Science & Analytics Tools (Asset): Experience with Python (Pandas, NumPy), R, Power BI, or Databricks for data profiling, trend analysis, and predictive modeling.
DevOps & CI/CD: Familiarity with Git, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, and automated schema migration frameworks (e.g., Flyway, Liquibase).
Soft Skills & Consulting Acumen
Consulting Mindset: Ability to translate complex database issues into clear technical recommendations for developers and business value summaries for stakeholders.
Agile & Cross-Functional Collaboration: Comfortable working alongside application developers, cloud architects, product managers, and data engineers.
Problem Solving & Triage: Calm and systematic under pressure when diagnosing production bottlenecks or data degradation issues.

Education and Certifications

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Technology, Computer Engineering, or a related quantitative field (or equivalent practical industry experience).
Preferred Certifications (Candidates with one or more of the following will stand out to the hiring team):
Microsoft Certified: Azure Database Administrator Associate (DP-300) or Azure Data Engineer Associate (DP-200 / DP-203)
AWS Certified: Database – Specialty or AWS Certified Data Engineer – Associate
