• Write, maintain, and troubleshoot complex SQL queries and reports across SQL Server and MySQL while following platform-specific query conventions.
• Trace data integrity problems to their root causes, including incorrect direct database updates, table synchronization failures, and data corruption originating from connected devices.
• Troubleshoot fleet hardware and software integrations, including Howen MDVR/DVR units, Android-based mobile tablets, and RFID readers.
• Work beyond frontline support to diagnose complex production issues and provide clear technical resolutions.
• Document and manage escalated issues in Jira using established issue types, workflows, and documentation standards.
• Build and maintain internal tools, technical references, and investigative resources that improve the speed and consistency of future troubleshooting.
• Communicate technical findings clearly to support teams and other stakeholders while maintaining a strong customer-focused approach.

Requirements:

• Strong SQL expertise across both Microsoft SQL Server and MySQL, including complex joins, query debugging, data investigation, and root-cause analysis.
• Proven experience investigating data integrity issues within production, customer-facing software environments.
• Experience troubleshooting complex software and hardware integrations, preferably involving connected devices or field equipment.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a methodical approach to identifying the underlying causes of technical issues.
• Experience working with Jira or a similar ticketing and issue-management platform.
• Strong written and verbal technical communication skills, with the ability to explain complex technical findings clearly.
• Ability to work effectively on complex escalations that require investigation across databases, applications, devices, and integrations.
• Experience working with routing, fleet management, municipal software, or related operational technology is preferred.
• Familiarity with GPS, telematics, or fleet data is a plus.
• Experience developing internal tools, scripts, documentation, or other resources to support technical investigations is desirable.
• Comfortable working independently while collaborating with frontline support and technical teams to resolve high-priority issues.
