Cloud Database Specialist required to join an Edinburgh based company that is revolutionising their industry.

They have recently signed contracts with one of the largest players in the industry and are expecting serious growth off the back of this.

The primary purpose of this role is to ensure the scalability and security of the Azure SQL Database environment. Their focus is on expanding and optimising the database infrastructure to support growing business needs while implementing rigorous security protocols to protect sensitive data and maintain compliance. To enhance data integrity and availability, you will develop robust backup and disaster recovery strategies and safeguard critical information against potential loss. Coupled with this you will provide architectural guidance to ensure the company's evolving database needs remain secure, efficient, and resilient as they scale.

Skills and Experience:

** Experience: Proven background in cloud database management, particularly with Azure SQL Database.

** Technical Knowledge: Proficient in database security, performance tuning, and optimization.

** Data Protection Skills: Familiar with database backup, recovery strategies, and ETL processes.

** Integration Proficiency: Experience in data integration and pipeline management.

** Problem Solving: Excellent analytical skills with strong attention to detail.

Some employees enjoy meeting in the office occasionally, but there is no strict requirement for in-office attendance, making it a great environment for those seeking adaptable working patterns.

In terms of salary they can look anywhere between £40k - £60k and are open to the idea of someone more junior looking to learn but would also be happy to pay at the top end for someone who brings a wealth of experience.
