Job Title: Database Infrastructure Engineer
Mode: Onsite
Location: Ashton, Northampton
Job Description
This role will involve occasional foreign travel to customer sites, and be based in our offices in the UK, near Northampton. The role includes building and maintaining IT infrastructure on customer platforms and providing support to our internal IT systems.
This includes Microsoft MSSQL and MySQL DBMS, virtualization, as well as general IT infrastructure. All systems need to run 24/7 and will adopt any forms of high availability and replication (potentially both) to aid that goal. Monitoring backups is equally important to the recovery of running systems. There is ample opportunity to grow and progress through the business, learning new skills and diversifying in role. The role will suit someone with a broad knowledge of databases and other aspects of IT, including hardware, software, and OS.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The ideal candidate will be organized and pragmatic, as the role is sometimes customer-facing. The candidate should have clear communication skills and be presentable. The role is 100% office-based and, due to the location, it would be preferable for the candidate to hold a full driving license.
