About Us
AGE Solutions is a premier technology and professional services company, providing in-depth consulting, advanced technology solutions, and essential services throughout the U.S. government, defense, and intelligence sectors. Prioritizing innovation and client-focused solutions, we assist major agencies in addressing intricate issues and ensuring a more secure future.
We are seeking a Database Engineer and Architect to create foundational data and database architectures for loading, integrating, managing, executing, governing, and maintaining critical medical logistics information. The role requires hands-on Oracle SQL and PL/SQL credibility while leading the transition toward PostgreSQL, Informatica-based integration, API-enabled services, containerized platforms, enterprise information modeling, lineage, data quality, and modern engineering practices. Data, and information derived from it, is the lifeblood of the government and military medical supply chain, and you will support crucial customers and business needs while helping shape the future-state database and information architecture.
Responsibilities Include:
Analyze business problems and define appropriate database and data architecture patterns, including relational, dimensional, denormalized, integration, and service-oriented approaches.
Define database and data-engineering architecture patterns for transactional, analytical, semantic, integration, and enterprise information-delivery needs.
Develop and maintain conceptual, logical, and physical data models, translating business concepts, rules, and relationships into implementable data structures and integration designs.
Create ERDs, data models, and architecture artifacts using enterprise modeling techniques and tools to communicate solution designs and support implementation teams.
Translate business needs into long-term architecture solutions and actionable SQL, database, integration, and data-service designs that meet business and technical requirements.
Ensure logical and physical data designs remain traceable to enterprise concepts, semantic definitions, authoritative sources, business rules, and consuming information products.
Architect enterprise data integration solutions and provide technical leadership for Informatica-based data movement, transformation, orchestration, quality, and source-to-target mapping.
Define API-driven and service-oriented data-access and integration patterns that reduce tightly coupled application-to-database dependencies.
Design solutions enabling end-to-end lineage, change-impact analysis, data quality, metadata, stewardship, governance, security, and authoritative-source management.
