Collaboration: Work effectively with other developers, business analysts, and stakeholders to understand requirements and implement solutions within the existing codebase.
Mentorship: Provide guidance to junior developers, sharing your knowledge and experience.

Strong proficiency in either T-SQL or PL/SQL: You should be highly skilled in writing complex queries, stored procedures, functions, triggers, and using advanced features of your chosen language.
Proven experience working with large, complex existing codebases: Demonstrated ability to understand, modify, and improve existing code rather than solely focusing on new development.
Solid understanding of database design principles and normalization.
Experience with performance tuning and optimization techniques.
Familiarity with version control systems (e.g., Git, SVN).
Exposure to Sybase ASE is a plus, but not required for candidates with strong PL/SQL background.
