I'm looking for a DBA (SQL required, oracle is a plus) to join my team at Sela and become a guru on the DB Developer side of Team System.

This person needs to have several years experience as DBA in real projects.

Your job will be to learn and become an expert on everything that is [Data Dude](http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/teamsystem/aa718764.aspx). You will present and train clients, research solutions, create courses (and teach them), present at conferences, and will be getting to be part of a highly trained task force that deals with Team System.
