Skill guide

What to know about Microsoft SQL

Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database platform common in enterprise, healthcare and finance, often paired with .NET applications and run on premises or as Azure SQL. Teams rely on it for transactional systems, reporting with SSRS, and ETL through SSIS or Azure Data Factory. A strong SQL Server engineer writes efficient T-SQL and stored procedures, reads execution plans, tunes indexes, and understands isolation levels and blocking. Ask about backup and recovery plans, Always On availability groups, and how they would move an on-premises database to Azure safely.

Vetting

How we vet Microsoft SQL engineers

Every Microsoft SQL engineer starts with a profile review of their CV, projects and past pipelines or models, then a communication check, since data work depends on explaining results to non-technical stakeholders. A senior engineer runs the technical interview, probing SQL and query tuning, pipeline design, data quality checks, model evaluation and reproducibility, with live coding and a scenario drawn from real data problems. Only the top 1.5% of applicants are accepted and published.

Typical engagements

Build or rebuild data pipelines that move product and business data into your warehouse reliably
Take a machine learning model from notebook prototype to a monitored production service
Tune slow queries, clean up data models and add quality checks so dashboards can be trusted
