About Us

We are a high-volume email marketing provider, helping clients send millions of messages, manage subscriber lists, and maintain strong deliverability. Our infrastructure spans Microsoft SQL Server, Linux-based email sending services across multiple cloud platforms, Amazon S3 storage, and a suite of internal .NET applications.

We are seeking a hybrid Database Administrator to ensure our systems run smoothly end-to-end. This role combines database administration, email system operations, client services, and general infrastructure oversight. The position is hands-on but also requires ownership of day-to-day stability and client satisfaction.

  • Coordinate with internal teams to resolve issues related to deliverability, list management, and platform usage.
  • Test and validate changes, patches, and system updates.
  • Document support processes and maintain operational runbooks.
Email Systems & Infrastructure
  • Oversee email delivery platforms hosted on Linux servers across multiple cloud providers.
  • Configure and troubleshoot email standards and protocols: SMTP, MIME, DKIM, SPF, DNS.
  • Monitor deliverability, bounce handling, and feedback loops.
  • Manage S3-based storage workflows tied to large-scale email operations.
  • Ensure uptime and smooth operation of dozens of in-house .NET applications (no development required, but operational oversight expected).
Qualifications
  • 5+ years of SQL Server DBA experience.
  • Familiarity with Linux server administration in cloud hosting environments.
  • Strong knowledge of email technologies: SMTP, MIME, DKIM, SPF, DNS.
  • Experience managing client services/support operations (ticketing systems, client communication).

We are based in Dayton, OH.
