Cloud Database Engineer

Founded in 2015 in Ukraine, with a representative office in Estonia, Diya has grown into a global IT solutions provider and a proud part of Euvic Group. We help small and medium-sized businesses optimize operations, enhance security, and establish a strong digital presence. Over the past decade, we have built a reputation as a trusted technology partner, a Microsoft partner, delivering tailored IT solutions that drive efficiency, innovation, and growth.

We are looking for a skilled Cloud Database Engineer to join our team on a long-term project for our client — a major logistics company. You will take full operational ownership of the cloud database estate, ensuring its high availability, performance.

Responsibilities

  • Proactive Estate Ownership. Inventory the database estate, establish health baselines and scheduled telemetry checks to detect performance degradation, anomalies, and resource exhaustion before they impact operations.
  • Performance Engineering. Diagnose complex performance issues using Query Store, DMVs, execution plans, and wait analysis, specifically optimizing for high-throughput, write-heavy workloads with evidence-based index and statistics management.
  • Reliability, Replication, and Incident Response. Own the operational reliability of data movement and replication, act as the primary responder for database-related P1 and P2 incidents, conduct root-cause analysis, and drive preventive actions.
  • Engineering Discipline. Manage database resources, configurations, and least-privileged access through Terraform and CI/CD pipelines while maintaining clear, actionable operational runbooks.

Qualifications

  • 7+ years of production SQL Server experience, including at least 3 years operating Azure SQL PaaS. Demonstrated ownership of a substantial Azure SQL estate, rather than just executing isolated tasks within a larger team.
  • Deep capability across Query Store, DMVs, execution plans, statistics, indexing strategy, and wait analysis.
  • Hands-on production experience with Hyperscale, including replicas, scaling, backup/restore behavior, and troubleshooting.
  • Strong T-SQL skills with the ability to write scheduled diagnostic queries and automation.
  • Experience troubleshooting replication and data movement under live production load.
  • Experience managing database resources and configurations through code, with Terraform strongly preferred.
  • Proven track record of leading incidents through diagnosis, root cause identification, and measurable prevention.
  • Clear written English for runbooks, incident updates, Jira tickets, and technical recommendations.

Preferred Experience

  • Datadog Database Monitoring
  • Azure Monitor and Log Analytics
  • Microsoft Entra authentication for Azure SQL, including managed identities
  • Migration from SQL Managed Instance to Azure SQL PaaS
  • High-transaction logistics or similarly time-sensitive operational environments
  • DP-300: Microsoft Azure Database Administrator Associate or equivalent demonstrated expertise

What we offer

  • Operating hours — 3 PM — 11 PM
  • Paid vacation and sick leave
  • Healthcare insurance and gym
  • Psychological support services
  • Paid additional certificates and professional training when needed
  • Career opportunities and professional growth
