Athenix Solutions Group is seeking a skilled Database Developer to join our team in Chantilly, Virginia. This role is critical in supporting a large program that involves operations and maintenance (O&M) as well as database development for legacy databases. The successful candidate will work on systems including the enterprise API Gateway, Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW), and new modern databases that align with the Sponsor's business data strategy. The Database Developer will be responsible for ensuring the sustainability and reliability of these mission-critical systems, which must operate without interruption and adhere to approved timelines for new development activities. In this position, the Database Developer will utilize existing enterprise services to avoid creating single-purpose solutions.

Monitoring applications to provide status awareness and developing resolution plans in case of failures will be essential tasks. The role requires compliance with the Agile Development Framework and the ability to recommend changes to current applications and databases based on evolving requirements. The Database Developer will also be tasked with recommending modernization options for data hosting, transport, cleansing, exposure, and ingestion at an enterprise scale. This includes making recommendations focused on performance, security, and cost-effectiveness while managing large volumes of disparate datasets. The role involves managing instances of cloud infrastructure services and multiple cloud servers, as well as enhancing current data systems technology and processes. Additionally, the Database Developer will create functional design specifications and architectures, support cloud project deliverables, and continuously evaluate program progress. They will coordinate stakeholder engagements, define and analyze technical and functional requirements, and provide data architecture and integration support to identify enterprise data needs. Participation in daily scrum meetings and providing project management support to the Sponsor Software Development Lifecycle process are also key responsibilities.
