How We Vet for Elite Databases Talent

Our Axiom Cortex™ engine identifies top-tier talent by simulating real-world challenges specific to databases. We select for engineers who have already solved your hardest problems.

The Pain: "Are slow database queries from your nearshore team killing your application's performance?"

Staffing vendors provide developers who lack a deep understanding of database internals. They write inefficient queries, design poor schemas, and fail to implement proper indexing, leading to a slow, unresponsive application that is expensive to scale.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

A slow database query is a business problem. Our cognitive AI predicts a candidate's ability to think in terms of data performance. We vet for experts who can perform query plan analysis, implement advanced indexing strategies, and design normalized, scalable schemas for both SQL and NoSQL systems.

Vetting Proof: Achieve sub-100ms query response times for critical application paths.
The Pain: "Is your database schema brittle and preventing rapid feature development?"

Your rigid relational schema requires a complex, high-risk migration for every minor feature change. This slows down development and makes it difficult to adapt to new business requirements.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We provide experts in both relational and NoSQL data modeling. They are vetted on their ability to choose the right database for the job and to design a schema (whether SQL or document-based) that can evolve with your application, enabling faster, more agile development.

Vetting Proof: A flexible data model that accelerates feature development.
The Pain: "Is your database a single point of failure with no disaster recovery plan?"

You are running your production database on a single server with no replication or automated backups. A hardware failure or accidental deletion could lead to catastrophic data loss and prolonged downtime for your business.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our DBAs and SREs are experts in high availability and disaster recovery. They are vetted on their ability to design and implement a robust strategy, including setting up replication, configuring automated backups, and regularly testing the recovery process.

Vetting Proof: Implementation of a high-availability architecture with a proven disaster recovery plan.
The Pain: "Are you struggling to choose between SQL and NoSQL?"

Your team defaults to using a relational database for every problem, even when a NoSQL solution would be a better fit for the access patterns and scalability requirements, leading to overly complex and inefficient designs.

The Business Impact

This isn't just a technical issue; it's a drag on velocity and a source of production risk. A single mis-hire here costs you revenue, team morale, and market position.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our experts have deep knowledge of both paradigms. They are vetted on their ability to analyze an application's requirements and make an informed decision on when to use SQL vs. NoSQL, or even how to use them together in a polyglot persistence architecture.

Vetting Proof: Pragmatic and evidence-based database selection.
