Contribute to the design and maintenance of logical and physical data models that align with business and technology requirements.
Build and maintain database objects including tables, indexes, storage structures, and related components.
Create and maintain technical documentation, standards, and best practices to support operational effectiveness and knowledge sharing.
Participate in an on-call rotation supporting critical production systems and helping to resolve incidents in a timely manner.

Strong understanding of database design, administration, performance tuning, troubleshooting, and support best practices.
Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify issues, recommend solutions, and drive results.
Ability to manage multiple priorities and adapt quickly in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
Ability to work effectively under pressure while supporting critical production systems and responding to operational incidents.
Strong organizational skills with exceptional attention to detail.
Demonstrated ability to build collaborative relationships and work effectively with cross-functional teams across the enterprise.
Strong verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to a variety of audiences.
A high degree of accountability, sound judgment, and willingness to seek assistance or escalate issues when appropriate.
Given the size and scope of our organization, we have the flexibility for this position to be located in the following head office locations: London, Toronto, or Winnipeg, with a hybrid work arrangement requiring in-office attendance Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
