Frequently Asked Questions

Is this remote DBA services, or a hire?

A hire. Your DBA joins your team, works your hours, and learns your systems. If you want an outside firm to run your databases under a service contract, that's a different model, and we'll tell you if we're not the right fit.

Which databases do your DBAs cover?

Oracle, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL. Name your platform and version in the request and we match for it.

Can one DBA cover more than one database?

Some DBAs work across two of them. If you run a mixed environment, tell us and we'll look for that combination specifically.

Can a DBA work with developers we hire through you?

Yes. A DBA alongside your .NET or Python developers keeps schema changes and queries in good shape as the product grows.

How fast can we get candidates?

Usually within 1–3 weeks of understanding your requirements. In 97% of our searches, we present pre-vetted candidates within that window.
