The Database Programmer/Analyst will be responsible for the back end processing and configuration of the Foundation’s Galaxy ticketing system, along with developing reports and data analysis using Cognos or other reporting systems. The Database Programmer/analyst will work closely with the Foundations Guest Operations department to enhance the capabilities of the ticketing system and provide front end backup support as needed. This position will provide a unique opportunity for someone with database, systems, programming and report writing knowledge to grow and expand their skills. Candidate must have demonstrated customer service and communication skills, 3+ years MS SQL database management/development, programming or related skills, strong research skills. Experience working with museums, amusement parks or other organizations that sell tickets is a plus.

Basically we’re looking for someone that can come in, optimize and maintain the SQL server database in Galaxy, customize Galaxy to provide additional functionality, develop a mobile ticketing presence, develop reports in Cognos, and provide backup support to the front end operations of Galaxy.
Galaxy and Cognos experience is preferred but if you have good programming, systems, and database experience Galaxy and Cognos can be trained.
