• Support and enhance reporting capabilities using SSRS and SSMS.
• Participate in Cloud-related initiatives while maintaining robust on-premise systems.
• Ensure database security, availability, and scalability in a production environment.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience with Microsoft SQL Server in an on-premise environment.
• Familiarity with SQL Server modules including SSRS, SSMS, Stored Procedures, Triggers, Indexes, and Views.
• Exposure to Cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, etc.) is a plus.
• Strong work history with demonstrated stability and commitment.
• Relevant education or certifications (e.g., Microsoft Certified: Azure Database Administrator Associate).
• Ability to work onsite and collaborate closely with operations and IT teams.
