About Novacis Digital
Novacis Digital is a product-first technology company building AI-driven platforms and large-scale data systems. Our products process complex, high-volume data to power real-time analytics and GenAI-driven experiences.
We don’t see SQL as “just a database layer” - we treat it as a core compute engine. If you love writing efficient SQL and solving performance problems, this is the role for you.
What You Will Do
· Design and build complex T-SQL stored procedures involving Dynamic SQL, along with views, functions, and triggers
· Implement flexible, metadata-driven query frameworks using sp_executesql and parameterized Dynamic SQL
· Engineer high-performance, set-based queries using CTEs, window functions, temp tables and table variables
· Optimize queries using execution plans, statistics and DMVs
· Refactor inefficient queries and redesign schemas for performance and scalability
· Solve real-world challenges related to locks, blocking, deadlocks and transaction isolation
· Collaborate with application engineers to build reliable, high-performance data access layers
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for true SQL engineers — people who think in execution flow, logic and data behavior rather than just syntax.
You should have:
· 4+ years of deep hands-on experience with Microsoft SQL Server & T-SQL
· Strong expertise in:
o Stored Procedures (with Dynamic SQL)
o Views
o Functions
o Triggers
· Strong experience with:
o Dynamic SQL best practices and secure execution patterns
o Indexing strategies and query plan optimization
o Handling parameter sniffing and plan instability
· Strong knowledge of:
o Temp tables vs table variables
o Cardinality estimation
o Cost-based optimization concepts
Nice to Have
· Exposure to GenAI data pipelines or analytical architectures
· Exposure to Graph, Vector and No SQL Databases
How We Work
· We write production-grade T-SQL
· We value performance, clarity, and correctness
· We invest heavily in query readability and maintainability
· Engineering quality is non-negotiable
