As a database engineer you will Manage flow of information across multiple medical-grade systems analyze business needs and create a database solution to meet them.

In particular, you will:

•  Identify database requirements by interviewing customers; analyzing department applications, programming, and operations; evaluating existing systems and designing proposed systems;
• Lend support to various business and technology teams as necessary during design, development and delivery to ensure solid, scalable, robust solutions.
• Recommend solutions by defining database physical structure and functional capabilities, database security, data back-up, and recovery specifications with appropriate monitoring tools.
• Install revised or new systems by proposing specifications and flowcharts; recommending optimum access techniques; coordinating installation requirements.
• Maintain database performance by calculating optimum values for database parameters; implementing new releases; completing maintenance requirements; evaluating computer operating systems and hardware products.
• Prepare users by conducting training; providing information; resolving problems.
• Staying up to date with the state of the art in the domain of database engineering to provide the best solutions to the technical challenges faced.
• Accurately estimating schedules and deliver high quality work products to that schedule.

• Knowledge in all aspects of cloud computing (infrastructure, storage, platforms and data).
• Experience with the current state of the art for SQL/NoSQL/NewSQL database models, networking, database synchronization, and cloud-based delivery models.
• Strong programming experience (3 years) in C/C++.
• A solid foundation in computer science, with strong competencies in data structures, algorithms, and software design.
• Strong commitment to code quality, documentation, thorough testing procedures and knowledge of software engineering best practices.
• Fluent in English.

 Icing on the cake:

• Understanding of information legislation, such as the data protection for European and American markets.
• Experience in following domains: data mining, distributed systems, or machine learning.
• Demonstrable interest for development outside the working environment (e.g. Personal projects, blogger, Open Source, papers, StackOverflow, Github, etc.).
• Experience with Medical device software (IEC 62304) is a plus

To be successful, you can illustrate the fact that you have the following abilities:

• Working autonomously: setting tasks and direction under limited supervision;
• Oral and written communication: ability to write clearly and succinctly in a variety of communication settings and styles; ability to get messages across that have the desired effect;
• Problem solving: Using rigorous logic and methods to solve difficult problems with effective solutions; having an excellent at honest analysis; looking beyond the obvious and not stop at the first answers;
• Planning accurately: setting objectives and goals; breaking down work into the process steps; developing schedules and task/people assignments; anticipating and adjusting to problems and roadblocks.
