Working time

Full time

Ally Financial only succeeds when its people do - and that’s more than some cliché people put on job postings. We live this stuff! We see our people as, well, people - with interests, families, friends, dreams, and causes that are all important to them. Our focus is on the health and safety of our teammates as well as work-life balance and diversity and inclusion. From generous benefits to a variety of employee resource groups, we strive to build paths that encourage employees to stretch themselves professionally. We want to help you grow, develop, and learn new things. You’re constantly evolving, so shouldn’t your opportunities be, too?

At Ally, you get a startup feel, but experience the benefits of a company that’s worked out the kinks and is fulfilling its purpose. We’re always evolving and see that as a good thing. From owning our work to seeing its impact in the real world, our team is relentless in finding new ways technology can help make experiences better and help people. We are problem solvers, we value diverse thinking, we support one another, and we challenge ourselves to think bigger in the journey to deliver customer-obsessed tech solutions.

The SQL DBA at Ally acts as the domain specialist, translating business requirements and functional specifications into technical requirements that support integrated and sustainable database systems. Their in-depth understanding of company and industry best practice methodologies, policies, standards, and controls make them an integral leader in Ally’s database life management phases.

• Monitor/maintain/upgrade Microsoft SQL database and assist application teams with performance tuning initiatives and enhancements while ensuring that technical modifications do not adversely affect database integrity, stability, and system availability
• Troubleshoot SQL database slowness, Disk/Memory/CPU utilization and suggest resolutions
• Provide 24x7 support for critical production systems and perform scheduled maintenance and support release deployment activities after hours
• Implement solutions for Microsoft SQL database backup and recovery infrastructure
