· Manage database structures and schema support activities, including storage areas, extents, .st files, dump/load operations, triggers, data model changes, and collaboration with development teams.
· Support application connectivity and server components such as AppServer, WebSpeed, or PASOE brokers, including agent pools and session models.

· Experience supporting OpenEdge database performance tuning, index optimization, table analysis, BI/AI file management, and production issue resolution.
· Familiarity with SQL-92 access to OpenEdge databases through ODBC/JDBC and experience with Linux/Unix and/or Windows Server environments.
These will help you stand out
· Bachelor’s degree in computer science, Information Systems, a related field, or equivalent experience.
· Experience with OpenEdge Replication or other high-availability configurations.
· Knowledge of PASOE (Progress Application Server for OpenEdge), AppServer, or WebSpeed administration.
