About the position

VSolvit is seeking a Database Administrator Journeyman Level to join the Electronic Warfare (EW) team at Pt. Mugu. This position will work on the Electronic Warfare Data Systems (EWDS) Team, supporting the EW systems for various US Navy air platforms, including the EA-18G, MH-60R, and E-2C/D. The employee will collaborate with different EWDS teams both on and off of NAS Point Mugu to enhance and maintain legacy systems while migrating these capabilities into modernized and networked database architectures and environments. This role requires working closely with Database teams and multiple Software development teams to develop and deploy Mission Planning and related support software from both internal government teams and third-party vendors. **This position is 100% on-site at NAS Point Mugu, CA.** The Database Administrator will be responsible for meeting weekly with developmental teams to support Fleet Software and Hardware improvement and sustainment efforts. They will gain an understanding of the capabilities and limitations of various databases and interrelated software programs of the Naval Air platform systems and subsystems. The role involves developing and implementing efficient strategies for migrating existing MS SQL Databases to PostgreSQL environments, particularly for application within cloud-based environments such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Additionally, the Database Administrator will work with development and maintenance teams to design requirements within an Agile environment to meet Support Lab needs, and collaborate with the Fleet Help Desk support team to define and integrate emergent Fleet needs with scheduled lab tasking. The position also includes supporting the design and testing of database partitioning and schema options to enhance data handling efficiencies in terms of import, processing, storage, and export. Troubleshooting and resolving database integrity, performance, blocking/deadlocking, connectivity, and security issues between asynchronous connection servers, nodes, and potentially austere forward edge computers will be key responsibilities. The Database Administrator will develop and maintain comprehensive database documentation, including System Security Plans, Data Dictionaries, Backup Procedures, and Job Queue Monitoring, all while operating within existing and developing DEVSECOPS pipelines.
