You will develop requirements from a project’s inception through completion for a range of business and IT subject matter areas. Additionally, you will assist in recommending, analyzing, and evaluating system improvements, optimization, development, and maintenance efforts. Responsibilities also include translating a set of requirements and data into usable documents, creating or updating ad hoc queries, scripts, and macros, and building complex systems using queries, tables, Open Database Connectivity, and database storage and retrieval through Cloud methodologies.

Must possess the ability to translate a set of requirements and data into a usable database schema by creating or recreating ad hoc queries, scripts, and macros, updating existing queries, and creating new ones to manipulate data into a master file.
Must be capable of assisting in developing database structures that fit into the overall architecture of the system under development.
Must have the ability to lead the development of database structures that fit into the overall architecture of the system under development.
Must be capable of leading the development of databases, database parser software, and database loading software.
