- Support live production systems and troubleshoot issues end-to-end
- Work with SQL Server (queries, views, stored procedures, data analysis)

- Improve application performance, security, and reliability
- Support integrations, background jobs, and data processes (imports/exports)
- Assist with security fixes and remediation on existing systems
- Collaborate with developers, tech leads, and support teams
