Job Description

A professional services firm with over 50 years of success is looking for a Database Administrator to join their Boston-based IT team. This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone with 3-5 years of SQL experience.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Automation-Focused Environment: Help optimize and automate database operations for efficiency and scalability.
  • Path to Cloud Expertise: Long-term growth includes opportunities to learn cloud technologies.
  • Hands-On Technical Depth: Stay deeply involved in engineering without being pushed into management prematurely

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage and maintain SQL Server environments (versions 20162019), ensuring optimal performance, reliable backups, and high availability through clustering, replication, and Always-On configurations.
  • Conduct disaster recovery testing and implement measures to safeguard database reliability and security.
  • Design and optimize stored procedures, views, and ad-hoc queries to support business needs.
  • Partner with IT and business teams to troubleshoot and resolve database-related issues efficiently.
  • Participate in a shared on-call rotation (infrequent but required) to provide critical support when needed.
  • Assist with schema design and maintain accurate documentation for database structures and processes.

Ideal Candidate

  • Around 4 years of practical experience working with SQL Server and T-SQL (flexible range: 27 years).
  • Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across technical and business teams.
  • A growth-oriented mindset and adaptability in a dynamic, evolving technology environment.
  • Comfortable handling customer support and ticket-based workflows with professionalism.
  • Nice to have: Familiarity with other database technologies such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Snowflake, or Databricks.

Culture & Leadership

  • Reports to a manager who values mentorship and team development.
  • Initial focus is support-heavy, with a clear path toward senior design and project ownership.
  • A culture of promoting from within and supports long-term career development.
