We are looking for a mid SQL Server DBA to join our Global Cloud DBA team in Spain. You will own the day-to-day operation, availability and performance of MSSQL estates hosted on Azure and AWS for GDPR, EMEA and US customers, working a fixed shift aligned to EMEA business hours with rotational on-call responsibility for critical incidents outside those hours. You will also build working capability on Oracle, PostgreSQL and MySQL as secondary platforms to widen cross-platform coverage.

•  6–10 years of hands-on database administration experience, with a majority on Microsoft SQL Server in production environments.

•  Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology or equivalent practical experience.
