Hire SQL Experts | Nearshore Software Development
SQL is the universal language of data. You need an expert who can write clean, efficient, and powerful SQL to unlock the insights hidden in your relational databases. Our vetting process, powered by Axiom Cortex™, finds engineers who are true masters of SQL. We test their ability to write complex queries, optimize performance, and work with a variety of relational database systems.
The Problem
A single, poorly written SQL query can consume massive database resources, slowing down your entire application and leading to a poor user experience.
The TeamStation AI Solution
We vet for engineers who are experts in SQL performance tuning. They must demonstrate the ability to analyze query execution plans, optimize indexes, and rewrite queries for maximum performance.
The Problem
Simple `SELECT *` queries are not enough to answer the complex business questions you have. You need to be able to perform complex aggregations, joins, and analysis to get the insights you need.
The TeamStation AI Solution
Our engineers are proficient in advanced SQL features like window functions, common table expressions (CTEs), and complex joins. They are vetted on their ability to write powerful SQL to answer even the most challenging business questions.
