Full Job Description

The Database Administrator is a critical operator in the company’s data infrastructure—ensuring performance, availability, and integrity across both on-premise SQL environments and Azure cloud platforms. As the business scales and modernizes its data ecosystem, this role directly enables reliable analytics, operational continuity, and system resilience.

This position addresses the increasing complexity of hybrid data environments, the need for real-time data reliability, and the demand for secure, high-performance systems that support business decision-making. Success in this role means stable, optimized database environments, seamless deployments, minimized downtime, and a continuously improving data platform that supports the company’s growth.

What you’ll do

1. Own database operations and performance

Administer and support SQL Server environments across on-premises and Azure platforms
Monitor system health, troubleshoot issues, and proactively optimize database performance
Manage transactional log processes, ensuring reliable restoration and data integrity across environments
Analyze workload patterns and implement tuning strategies to improve efficiency and scalability

2. Drive cloud and infrastructure excellence

Administer and enhance Azure-based data warehouse and database environments
Lead patching, upgrades, and release deployments to maintain security and performance standards
Support cloud-native data solutions including Azure SQL, Data Factory, and Data Lakes
Contribute to cloud architecture decisions and modernization initiatives

3. Execute and improve database systems and projects

Define, plan, and coordinate database-related projects from concept through implementation
Participate in enterprise initiatives to upgrade or modernize database platforms
Identify system deficiencies and implement solutions that improve reliability and efficiency
Maintain up-to-date documentation, diagrams, and operational procedures

4. Resolve incidents and maintain availability

Provide 24x7x365 support coverage as part of a shared operations model
Resolve incidents, service requests, and change orders in a timely, high-quality manner
Act as a technical escalation point for database-related issues
Ensure clear communication and status updates for all assigned work

5. Enable data integrity, security, and best practices

Apply established methodologies and governance standards across database environments
Maintain CI/CD processes within cloud data platforms to support consistent deployments
Ensure security, compliance, and data protection best practices are enforced
Continuously evaluate and improve operational processes to prevent recurring issues

What you bring

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field
4+ years of hands-on experience supporting SQL Server environments (on-premises and Azure)
4+ years of experience with Azure-based data warehouse and data integration solutions
Strong expertise in Microsoft SQL Server (2008–2019) including SSRS, SSIS, SSAS
Advanced T-SQL skills with the ability to write and optimize complex queries
Experience with performance tuning, indexing strategies, and query optimization
Proven experience managing CI/CD pipelines in cloud data environments
Solid understanding of database architecture, design principles, and data modeling
Experience with Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lakes, and Azure DevOps preferred
Familiarity with cloud computing infrastructure and distributed processing models preferred
Strong problem-solving mindset with persistence in diagnosing complex issues
Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment
Excellent communication, collaboration, and customer service skills
5+ years of overall IT experience preferred

How you operate

You think in systems, not isolated tasks
You take ownership of outcomes, not just assigned work
You move quickly while maintaining precision and control
You proactively identify risks and resolve issues before escalation
You communicate clearly, consistently, and with intent
You operate with discipline, structure, and attention to detail
You collaborate effectively across technical and business teams
You continuously look for ways to improve performance and reliability

About Roadrunner

We’re not just moving freight; we’re reimagining long-haul shipping. Our Smart Network™ offers more direct long-haul metro-to-metro routes than any other nationwide LTL carrier in the United States, with service extending into Canada and Mexico and terminals across 40+ metro markets. Powered by AI and machine learning, our operations platform ensures real-time tracking, custodial control, and full shipment visibility. With driver teams executing over-the-road (OTR) moves — and no freight moving on rail — customers experience industry-leading transit times, minimal rehandling, and dramatically reduced risk of loss or damage.

Our 900+ owner-operators benefit from scheduled freight, fewer touches by design, consistent long-haul density, and a differentiated metro-to-metro model that creates predictable earning opportunities.

This precision and performance have earned Roadrunner national recognition by over 3,000 shippers, and was ranked this year #1 in Operations, #1 in Technology, and #1 in Value in the Quest for Quality Awards, as well as honors as a Top 100 Trucking Company by Inbound Logistics and a Top Tier Service Carrier by Mastio.

We’re growing fast. Roadrunner is building something special with great people, a winning culture and a differentiated service offering in the marketplace. Join us today to grow your career!
