WHAT WILL YOU DO?
Axis Video Hosting System (AVHS) is a Linux based video surveillance system that offers our customers video surveillance services and video hosting in the cloud. The products has tens of thousands concurrent users with high demands on software security, robustness and stability.

AVHS is also a rapidly growing system and the demands on scalability are getting higher as the product matures. Therefore, an important part of this role is to make sure that the software enables the system to grow in an optimal and scalable way. You will be working with database tuning and query optimization, taking major responsibility for your area of expertise. You will have great opportunities to influence the technical solutions.

In order to do this you need to have a good understanding of the software and its structure. You will be working in close relation to our customers, creating an interface between Axis and those responsible for hosting the system.

You have experience in:

* Database tuning
* Query optimization

* Relational databases
* MySQL
* Working with large systems
