Application Performance Consultant

Creative Data has openings for Application Performance Management and Tuning Consultants. Successful candidates will be architect or consultant level J2EE/Oracle or .NET/SQL Server developers who desire a wide variety of challenges. Demonstrable application performance tuning experience is required. Knowledge of performance trade-offs is required.

Our Application Performance practice is built around the Symantec (formerly Veritas) i3 suite of products. Our consultants must be able to install, configure, and utilize the entire i3 suite. Prior experience with i3 or its predecessors, Precise SQL and DB Tuner, is desirable but not required. Appropriate product training and support will be provided.

Severe performance problems effectively take down our customers' applications. That can create a high-stress, time-critical working environment. Alternatively, some customers take a proactive approach to application performance and their projects can move glacially through the change control and approval processes. Regardless, our projects operate in highly political atmospheres so excellent customer management skills are required.

Excellent written and verbal communication skills as well as presentation skills are required.  Project Management skills are desired. Technical selling experience is a plus.

75% travel, often on short notice, is normal for most positions. A security clearance is required for many positions. Prior consulting experience is a plus.
