Job title

Migrations engineer

Job description

At Documaster we care – we care about the quality of our products, the experience of our customers and the quality of the relationships we build internally, as a team. We are 100 employees, spread across Norway, Sweden, and Bulgaria, fueled by mutual respect, trust, understanding and always being there to help each other. We take pride in our joint accomplishments, but we remain humble​.

To date, we have supported over 350 public organizations in Norway to take control over their data stored in the multitude of business systems they use. Some of the major challenges faced are the high cost of supporting such systems and keeping them live, the poor integration with modern cloud applications, and the inability to locate, organize and use productively the information scattered across them. Our solution to the problem is to migrate the data from those legacy systems into a standardized native cloud product, make the data searchable and easily accessible, and allow the data to be exported via open APIs when necessary.

As a migrations engineer you will be researching the data models of various business systems, mapping them to the Documaster data model, converting source documents to an archive format, and importing them along with the corresponding metadata into Documaster. Your work will be supported by a number of tools we have developed in-house and you will be encouraged to suggest improvements to the tools or implement the changes yourself.

Every new system you migrate to Documaster will pose unique challenges. After dealing with a particular system, you will incorporate your research findings into a systems knowledge base to facilitate the future work of the team. You will attend short training courses related to your work from time to time and also pass on your database migration know-how to new team members once you feel ready for this.

You will be a good match for the job if you have experience in analyzing the structure of relational databases, writing SQL queries, and backing up and restoring databases. Hands-on experience in any of PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle, or SQL Server is a must. Having good English skills is important too as communicating with our Norwegian colleagues will be a key part of your job. Good working knowledge of Linux and ability to write simple scripts would be considered a plus, but if you lack the experience, we will gladly help you out with that.

If you want to work in a team that constantly challenges you, and the job described here genuinely sparks your interest, you should get in touch with us right away. If you are the right match for our team we will surely offer you a competitive salary. On top of that, we have a stock options plan , a flexible benefits package tailored to your needs, and offer free training and certification programs. There are more goodies but we would like to keep them as pleasant surprises.
