** Database Administrator
** Full Time | Bryan, Texas HQ $75,000 – $95,000 annually + benefits--
- ** About the Role
** Kent Moore Cabinets is a 700-person manufacturing company with critical business systems built on robust database infrastructure. We're looking for a Database Administrator to own the reliability, performance, and security of our database platforms — SQL Server, Postgre
SQL, and databases running in Docker containers.
A major part of this role is managing data from Microvellum (MV), our cabinets design software. MV outputs a tremendous amount of complex data that drives our manufacturing operations and reporting. You'll partner with the Development team to organize, structure, and distribute that data across systems — from the ERP to analytics to production workflows. This data integration work is as important as traditional database administration.
You'll work directly with our IT Director, Development team, System Administrator, and Network Administrator. The System Administrator owns the servers and systems your databases run on; the Network Administrator ensures data transmission is reliable and performant. Close collaboration with all three is essential to success.
This role is essential to KMC's operation. Our manufacturing processes, ERP system, business reporting, and data-driven decision-making all depend on databases and data pipelines that work reliably, perform well, and recover quickly. You'll ensure database infrastructure and data flow are never the bottleneck.
This is not a support role. You own database platform strategy, health, and performance for the company.
