Database architect Jobs in Repentigny, QC

Job Description

Mandate Overview:

• The client is looking for a systems architect who works with all individual savings teams, above the designers.
  
• They know the systems map, understand the business logic and make technical implementation decisions jointly with the solution architect: they run detailed impact analyses and raise concerns about a solution.
  
• They do not code daily but read and debug code when a team is stuck and answer the questions of designers, many of whom are ramping up. Classic .NET, .NET Core and React are hardly negotiable.
  
• The rest of the stack is assessed as a whole, and databases are interchangeable.
  
• Two years of architecture is enough: the expectation is someone able to understand, explain and carry out architecture work, not an author of complex architectures.
  
• Candidate sought: A .NET and React developer who moved into architecture about 2 years ago, has worked across legacy and cloud and can unblock a team by reading its code.
  
• Collaborative and full of ideas, they challenge practices without imposing their own and learn quickly.

• Classic .NET, .NET Core, C# and React
  
• Relational databases (SQL), MongoDB or equivalent
