Company:  InfoPeople Corporation
Location: Lansing
Closing Date: 19/10/2024
Hours: Full Time
Type: Permanent
Job Requirements / Description
Top Skills & Years of Experience:

- Sybase to SQL Server (4-5 years minimum experience with Sybase and SQL) - Required

- Candidates must be experienced in troubleshooting.

- Unix/Solaris/Linux experience

Candidates MUST be able to speak to skills listed on resume.

Clear and concise written and verbal communication is crucial to success and productivity in this role.

We are looking for a DBA to join the team. This is not a short-term contract. We would prefer to

eventually move the person to being a full-time employee, if possible, but the primary goal is to have an

employee that can meet our skill requirements. If the selected candidate desires to stay as a contractor,

we are more than willing to allow this but will also work to get to being a full-time state employee if

they desire.

They will need to have experience with formal change control environments. They also need strong

troubleshooting skills.

Our environment is predominantly Sybase with SQL Server. We are moving from Sybase to a pure SQL

Server in approximately 3 years. The Sybase environment is 15.7 on Solaris in an X86 hardware

environment within our local network. The SQL Server environment is mixed versions of SQL Server on

mixed versions of Windows Server with an upcoming project to update versions. This environment

includes both servers in our network and in Azure.

Our planned goal is to move off Sybase and a project to do this is underway and thus the need for the

selected candidate to have some experience with both Sybase and SQL Server.

Our primary goal is to have an additional individual to assist with our Sybase 15.7. As a result, the

appropriate candidate will need to have Unix background running and developing CRON jobs with

command line experience. The DBA should be familiar with Sybase ASE 15.7. This can be at the level of

a junior DBA. The desire is to have a DBA that can assist with tasks, particularly during after hours

implementations that the senior DBAs need completed to reduce the overall time required per DBA.

This position will also help with other tasks that occur during the week such as weekly data fixes which

occur on Thursday and Friday.

The secondary goal is to take work off the SQL Server DBAs. This will require the individual to have

some experience with Windows Servers and with SQL Server. Additionally, the person will work with

clusters and with Disaster Recovery in our development, test, and production environments.

A strong desired experience is migration from Sybase to SQL Server.
