SQL Server DBA – salary up to £45-65,000 DOE
Effective use of databases play a key role in Onalytica’s quest to transform the online debate into valuable insight. We have approximately 65 TB of storage and anticipate this to grow beyond 100 TB by the end of the year. The growth is likely to be ever increasing. We own and operate our own hardware in a state-of-the art data centre.

We are looking to recruit a SQL Server DBA to work closely with both our development and operations teams to ensure the overall quality of our database operations.

This is a rare opportunity to work with very large data stores within a highly transactional environment.

At Onalytica we provide powerful, deep and credible insights into what people are saying about you, your competitors, your people, products and services.

We are a recognised leader in analysing online buzz, helping some of the world’s largest brands gain critical intelligence that empowers them to take enterprise-wide, strategic decisions.

We employ rigorous scientific methods that marry sophisticated computational algorithms to robust and proven methodologies. This gives profound insights into current events but, more importantly, the subtle forces behind them. From this, our clients can predict future trends and act on them now, with confidence.

Our work can include social media but is not limited to it. Whether by geography, language or media type, we deal with rational, observable, actionable intelligence.

No other company has more resource devoted to this. As one of the largest independent companies working in this exciting field, powering communications strategies for blue-chip companies, media agencies and government departments globally, we do these things because they are hard.
