  • Design SQL Server database schemas optimized for transactional workloads - normalization, indexing, concurrency control, and locking behavior.
  • Write and optimize SQL queries, stored procedures, and transaction logic for high-throughput, low-latency operations.
  • Ensure data consistency, atomicity, and integrity (ACID compliance) across services.
  • Develop ETL processes as needed to support data migration, system integration, or occasional batch sync between transactional systems.
  • Handle API request/response cycles: validation, error handling, retries, and rate limiting on data-write operations.

  • Working knowledge of Azure services: Azure SQL Database, API Management,, Azure Blob Storage.
  • Experience working with transactional data in high-concurrency, production environments.
  • Experience writing and optimizing SQL stored procedures for transactional systems.
  • Hands-on experience with SSIS or similar tools for data migration/integration tasks.
  • Working knowledge of ETL development for occasional batch sync or migration needs.

  • Experience collaborating with backend/application engineers to integrate data layers into services.
  • Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and communication skills.
