Job Description
This contractor will be a part of the MS SQL performance team working on on-prem and AzureSQL software, focused on ensuring performance is optimal and competitive.
The contractor must have a bachelors degree in computer science, preferably a masters degree (an information science degree is not enough). Degrees from tier 1 universities like University of Washington are a plus.
They should be familiar with data structures and understand what makes a program optimal and performance oriented (they will not write code but should be able to understand the code and know which questions to ask to determine how it works).
The contractor should be very familiar with databases. They should understand structured query language (SQL), tables, indexes, kinds of logic, locks & spinlocks, etc. Some experience with hardware and processors is needed, the contractor will do low level testing and benchmarking for machines that will be added to Azure to ensure they work as intended.
The contractor doesn't need to know any specific coding language, but should have a strong understanding of coding logic and ideally be comfortable writing in at least one of the following: C#, Bash, C, C++, PowerShell, Python, etc. They should be able to read a function, understand what is does, and know how to change the function. This role will involve implementing automation in PowerShell.
The contractor will primarily work with windows systems, however Linux skills would be a plus. The sponsor prefers candidates that can come into the office in building 43 in Redmond, WA but is open to fully remote candidates that can work in PST hours. The ideal candidate recently finished a computer science degree a few years ago, but the sponsor is open to candidates with more experience (still at a max bill rate of ***/hour)
The best candidate has great problem solving, communication, and presentation skills and is able to explain what they've found while testing. They should be vocal about what they understand and what they don't understand, and are willing to ask questions to learn more. The second-round interview will focus on their technical knowledge of SQL servers and tuning them.
Candidates should be prepared to expand on what is included in their resumes and rate their ability with the programming languages listed on their resume. The sponsor's team will ask candidates about their coding experience, to explain different data types, if they understand database-related info such as concurrency and which kinds of locking are best for certain scenarios, and ensure they know how their code works instead of just being able to write code.
