| SEEKING FREELANCER - Stanford, CA Database Architect / Admin / Developer Hi, I'm a developer in a small development team working in a research lab. We curate a knowledgebase of pharmacogenetic data by having PhDs use a web application to annotate scientific literature and related data. We're relatively small so we operate like a startup (read: a lot of autonomy) within our department. Project Description - We are looking for a freelancer to work on a fixed-term project that should only take 1 or 2 months to complete. Our knowledgebase is a Tomcat Java webapp backed by an Oracle RDBMS with a Hibernate layer in between. We'd like someone to migrate our existing Oracle RDBMS to PostgreSQL, ensure the integrity of all migrated data, and optimize to perform like a well-oiled machine. The database itself is a non-clustered, non-replicated, single instance (pretty straight-forward). Qualifications - We need someone with experience architecting and deploying both Oracle and PostgreSQL architectures in a linux environment (RHEL/Ubuntu). Optionally, it would be great if you're competant in Java or have a DevOps-type background. Our institute requires applicants to have a bachelor's degree (or equivalent years of directly applicable work experience). Contact: feedback@pharmgkb.org - Send us a resume, CV, portfolio page, github profile, or whatever and we can start the conversation. |
