Every open database administrator role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 2 of the 3 database administrator listings that publish a work model came back remote-first. The other 17 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.

Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

Among the companies currently listed as top hirers are SAP, University of Texas at Austin, University of Rochester, DeepSource, and Cotiviti, representing a mix of technology, healthcare, and higher education sectors. This diversity in hiring organizations suggests that Database Administrator roles are sought across multiple industries rather than being concentrated in a single sector, based on current postings. With 20 open roles distributed among 13 companies, the average number of postings per company is relatively low, which may indicate that most employers are hiring for a small number of specialized positions rather than large-scale hiring initiatives. The pace of new postings, with only 1 role added in the past week, suggests a relatively steady rather than rapidly expanding hiring environment at this time. Job seekers evaluating this market should consider both the salary percentile data and the range of hiring organizations when assessing opportunities, as compensation and employer type appear to vary. Overall, the data reflects a niche but active market for Database Administrator talent, with opportunities spread across educational institutions, technology firms, and healthcare-adjacent organizations.
What skills are in demand for Database Administrator roles right now?
Based on current postings, the specific technical skills required are not detailed in the available data, though the presence of employers like SAP, DeepSource, and Cotiviti suggests demand spans enterprise software, data infrastructure, and healthcare-related technology environments. Candidates should review individual job listings for precise skill requirements, as available data does not specify a standardized skill set across all 20 open roles.

According to available data, the median salary for Database Administrator roles is $122,000, with a 25th percentile of $97,500 and a 75th percentile of $140,000. This range suggests meaningful variation in compensation depending on the employer and role specifics, so candidates should consult individual postings for exact figures.
