JOB: DBA - Passionate Technology Company in London, City.

Hi List,

The world of the enterprise DBA is changing, be part of it. Like it or not, open source technology is making serious inroads into the enterprise environment. Justifying the purchase of a heavyweight RDBMS with it's associated overhead, when credible Open Source alternatives exist, is getting harder and harder. We positively welcome this change. Without it, we wouldn't exist.. Having said this, business models may be changing, but operational requirements are not. Although we are committed to Open Source, we are more passionately committed to our service, our subscribers, and not being woken up at unsociable hours of the morning.

We are hiring a DBA to be part of our Engineering team. This is both a production support and development role that requires architect grade thinking.

We are a small team of open source and telephony experts, many with a track record of contribution to Open Source projects - That's the disruptive part. The serious part is our focus on quality of service, sustainability and our global aspirations.

Your CV will tell a credible story that involves successful implementations at an enterprise scale. Your focus will be on service delivery and sustainability, not be a simple "shopping list" of products and acronyms (we are smart people, and their attention span is short). You will bring to our company mature DBA skills to bear on a rapidly growing environment. If you agree that the world is changing, and want to be right at the forefront of
these changes, we need to talk. Whether you're a seasoned Oracle DBA who doesn't know their INNODB from their MyISAM, or a hardcore MySQL DBA with contributions to the code base, I want to hear from you.

We arein a position to offer an exceptional basic - we want to retain quality/talented individuals!

We offer a fantastic working environment. No-tie group of professionals who <when not busy coding, designing or developing> regularly compete in office Nintendo Wii tournaments <plugged into a nice plasma>. There is also a great social life too - regular bowling nights etc.

Thanks
James
