What you tell people at parties
If a database is like a universe, Im the efficient astronomer. *Mind=blown*.What you really do
- You manage the database environments for all our applications.
- You continuously improve the way developers are working with databases, by building automated processes to deliver production and non production environments.
- You provide a framework for developers to securely push database related changes into testing, acceptance and production environments.
How you do it
- You shovel databases from one environment to another, preferably automated and in real-time.
- You make sure that everything you create and automate is testable and you support developers in doing so.
- You select the right tool for the job and independently decide which database engine to use.
- You present your ideas in a simple way so its understood by all technical and non-technical alike.
- You use managed services where possible: epic time management.
- You excel in automating database administration, so much so that it takes up no time at all. You can then spend all that extra time on database development instead of operations.
Team
You'll work in a team of multidisciplinary engineers. This means that you'll be able to expand your skill set to other areas, or simply have a full view on how everything comes together, so you can make an even bigger impact. Your team also has a Scrum Master and a Product Owner.A day at the office
After your first cup of coffee of the day, you check the Datadog dashboard to see if the automated data masking process has finished successfully. Turns out it has. Awesome! Great news to share with the GDPR team during the stand-up.After the stand-up, you have a meeting with Software Developer Irapuan and Database Administrator Rob. Youre going to discuss how to automate deployment of big schema changes for our Oracle databases. Thats quite a mouthful. Together with Rob, youve already been prototyping to validate some approaches, so youre able to quickly agree on a solution which can be applied in the next sprint.
Today is also team lunch day. In the Slack team channel, your teammate Tim already proposed some ideas, from towers of pizza boxes to a cat-café. It turns out that Lirida has the best idea: trying out a new Mexican restaurant. Tim is a bit disappointed that his cat-café option didnt make it, but burritos sound pretty great to him too.
After the nachos and fajitas, its time to open up your Python IDE. Youll be showing off your next level skills by working on automating the near-real time replication of the on-premises Oracle database to AWS. Try saying that 10 times.
