Responsibilities

  • This is a hybrid role based out of our San Francisco, CA or New York, NY office.
  • Our team works in-office time on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
  • Aurora PostgreSQL in production: availability, performance, capacity planning
  • and major-version upgrades.
  • Backups and restores: backup policy, point-in-time recovery, and scheduled
  • restore tests with
  • measured recovery time and data-loss targets.
  • The DynamoDB migration, from the data side: access-pattern and data-model
  • review, backfill
  • and dual-write plans, validation, cutover and rollback.
  • Database access and security: least-privilege roles, credential rotation,
  • audit logging and
  • encryption, in line with PCI DSS and SOC 2.
  • Data-layer observability: slow queries, connection saturation, replication
  • lag and storage
  • growth, with alerting in Datadog.
  • On-call for data-layer incidents: response, follow-through and written
  • post-incident reviews.
  • Runbooks clear enough that the rest of engineering can operate the databases
  • without you.
  • You've run PostgreSQL in production and been the person accountable when it
  • broke.
  • You have deep PostgreSQL skills: query planning, indexing, vacuum and bloat,
  • connection pooling, replication and major-version upgrades.
  • You've done real backup and restore work: point-in-time recovery, restore
  • drills and measured recovery times.
  • You know data stores on AWS, including Aurora PostgreSQL (Serverless v2) and
  • DynamoDB data modeling (access patterns, key design, capacity).
  • You're comfortable with Terraform or OpenTofu, CI pipelines and scripting in
  • Python, Go or Bash.
  • You've worked under PCI DSS, SOC 2 or a similar regime, or you're ready to.
  • You write clearly: runbooks, migration plans and incident reviews that other
  • people can act on.
