POSITION DESCRIPTION We are seeking a full-time Senior Database Engineer to join the Database Engineering Team working on itsContent Ingestion platform. As part of Database Engineering, you will have the opportunity to continue the development and enhancement of several terabyte-sized Oracle databases that serve as the foundation data stores for the service as well as a leading Video DVD recognition service and audio fingerprint matching service. As aSenior Database Engineer working on the Content Ingestion platform, you will be responsible for building solutions to deal with the wide variety of content feeds that need to be integrated with the Media Database. These feeds arrive in a wide variety of formats, from TSV to XML, and include multi-byte textual data and binary data. You must be able to analyze data feeds, decide the best course of action for integration, and if necessary, build extensions to the platform. If required, you will design and develop new Oracle Database schema, SQL and PL/SQL, as well as programs and scripts in languages like Java, ruby, and perl.

To be successful in this role, you must be a fast learner and self-starter, be adept at learning complex programs and systems by reading source code, and have the ability handle rapidly changing project requirements.
