SSIS Data Migration Engineer

We want someone who enjoys building dependable data pipelines and can handle migration complexity end-to-end.

• Hands-on SSIS package development (data flows, error handling, and deployment).
• Strong T-SQL experience with a practical, DBA-inspired mindset (query correctness, data integrity, and reliability).
• Proven experience moving data between different database platforms, including data type conversion work from MySQL to MS SQL.
• Experience implementing staging and crosswalk loads, including parent/child ID remapping patterns.
• Ability to build packages that support restartable reruns after failures.
• Track record validating migrations with row-count reconciliation, checksums, and exception handling (not just checking logs).
• Comfort working with legacy systems and transforming messy or inconsistent source data into reliable target schemas.

We are looking for an engineer who will deliver hands-on SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages for data migration and transformation. Our focus is on robust, production-grade ETL—especially the details that make migrations safe and restartable.

• Develop SSIS packages with data flows, solid error handling, and reliable deployment practices.
• Build SSIS solutions that go beyond “ETL in general” by implementing proven patterns for operational reliability (clear failure modes, logs, and recoverability).
• Use strong T-SQL skills to support extraction, transformation, validation, and performance-aware data operations (DBA-like thinking, without requiring full administrative ownership).
• Move and transform data across database platforms, with special attention to data type conversion and edge cases when migrating from MySQL to MS SQL.
• Implement staging and crosswalk loads, including scenarios where parent records receive new IDs during the load and child records must be mapped to those new IDs.
• Design packages with reruns so a failed load can be restarted cleanly and deterministically.
• Validate migrations using row counts, checksums, and exception tables—ensuring we do not ship migrations that only “ran.”
• Collaborate with our team to interpret legacy data quirks, translate business rules into transformations, and ensure consistent delivery standards.

At Improving, we build future-ready solutions in AI, Data, and Applications, modernizing legacy systems and delivering cloud-native platforms through long-term, collaborative partnerships. In this role, we focus on reliable data migration and transformation work that enables businesses to move from legacy databases to MS SQL with confidence. You will design and implement SSIS packages that handle real-world complexity—data type conversions, staged/crosswalk loads, rerunnable migrations, and verification routines—so that stakeholders can trust the outcome of each migration. Our goal is measurable data quality improvements and dependable deployments, delivered with an optimistic, team-first culture.
