Full Job Description

Miles IT is looking for a Lead Database Administrator to serve as the strategic architect of our data ecosystem, bridging the gap between legacy on-premise stability and the future of Azure cloud scalability. We aren't just looking for someone to maintain the status quo; we need a strategic visionary who can bridge the gap between legacy on-premise stability and the cutting-edge possibilities of Azure cloud. As the primary architect of our multi-tenant SaaS database strategy, you will be the guardian of our system health and the mentor to a talented team of DBAs and developers.

If you thrive on solving complex performance puzzles—from advanced query tuning to high-availability disaster recovery—and have a passion for translating technical excellence into business growth, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact. You will lead high-stakes migrations, define long-term roadmaps, and ensure that our data platforms are as secure and cost-efficient as they are powerful. At Miles IT, your expertise won't just support the business; it will drive it.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Define and drive the long-term database strategy and roadmap in alignment with product growth and business goals.
Lead architectural decisions for multi-tenant SaaS databases to ensure scalability, security, and cost-efficiency.
Manage and optimize Azure SQL Managed Instances and on-premise SQL Server environments for maximum stability.
Define, implement, and maintain high availability and disaster recovery (HA/DR) strategies to meet strict performance and uptime SLAs.
Execute end-to-end cloud migration strategies, moving on-premise workloads to Azure with minimal risk.
Identify and drive continuous performance improvements through advanced query tuning, indexing, and concurrency management.
Establish and enforce database standards and operational best practices for safe, high-quality deployments.
Lead and mentor a team of DBAs and developers, overseeing technical delivery and professional growth.

QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related quantitative field.
8+ Years of Database Administration: Proven track record managing high-availability environments across both Legacy On-Premise SQL Server and Modern Azure SQL/Managed Instances.
3+ Years of leadership experience as a Lead or Manager, with a focus on mentoring junior DBAs and Database Developers
Advanced proficiency in Microsoft SQL Server and Azure SQL Managed Instance, with a focus on comprehensive database administration, modernization, and cloud adoption.
Proven experience designing and managing multi-tenant SaaS database architectures to ensure long-term scalability, security, and performance.
Expertise in performance engineering, including bottleneck troubleshooting, query optimization, execution plan analysis, and proactive index tuning.
Technical mastery of High Availability and Disaster Recovery (HA/DR) strategies, consistent health checks, and preventive maintenance to ensure maximum uptime.
Strong ownership of system reliability and scalability, supported by high-level project planning, prioritization skills, and a sense of responsibility for system health.
Exceptional communication and leadership skills, with the ability to mentor DBAs and engineers while translating complex database concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

Pay: $110,000.00 - $130,000.00 per year
