Who’s Hiring Database People? May 2026 Edition
Is your company hiring for a database position as of May 2026? Do you wanna work with the kinds of people who read this blog? Let’s make a love connection.
If your company is hiring, leave a comment. The rules:
- Your comment must include the job title, and either a link to the full job description, or the text of it.
- An email address to send resumes, or a link to the application process – if I were you, I’d put an email address because you may want to know that applicants are readers here, because they might be more qualified than the applicants you regularly get.
- Please state the location and include REMOTE and/or VISA when that sort of candidate is welcome. When remote work is not an option, include ONSITE.
- Please only post if you personally are part of the hiring company—no recruiting firms or job boards. Only one post per company. If it isn’t a household name, please explain what your company does.
- It has to be a data-related job.
If your comment isn’t relevant or smells fishy, I’ll delete it. If you have questions about why your comment got deleted, or how to maximize the effectiveness of your comment, contact me.
Each month, I publish a new post in the Who’s Hiring category here so y’all can get the latest opportunities.

Location: Sheboygan, WI. Remote or onsite. We have a nice hybrid and there are about 3 times a year that all are required to come to the office (company pays for travel and hotels) for 2 or 3 days. Currently, you may take vacation days to avoid it.
We do use SQL Server and Postgres, but if you have Db2 LUW and/or Db2 z/OS experience, that would give you a big advantage. The job includes working with all of them.
You forgot to mention the ginormous flag pole!
lol, and we have a Ferris Wheel in the building!

Would have been more efficient to list the states you CANNOT live in ?
Hahaha, that’s true. I know how that works – we had to deal with it when we had consultant employees too. Whenever they moved to another location, we had a ton of tax and legal work to set up an official company presence in that state. (sigh) Governments are soooo not set up for this kind of thing.
