  • Rewrite existing stored-procedure logic using Scala where appropriate.
  • Work with Snowflake warehouses and Snowflake SQL , including query performance tuning.
  • Collaborate with data engineering and application teams to improve database performance and overall system efficiency.

  • 6+ years of DB2 SQL performance tuning experience.
