ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Database Administrator to manage, secure, and tune high-availability production databases, working closely with engineering teams. This is a hands-on DBA role focused on database administration, performance, security, and reliability—not Data Engineering.

• Work closely with engineers on system design, performance tuning and technical support.
• Operate hands-on in an extremely technical environment, administering the data systems that support the website.
• Stay composed under pressure and navigate extremely stressful situations.

• Experience with both Microsoft SQL Server and Aurora PostgreSQL; candidates may be stronger in either one.
• Experience with AWS, particularly RDS and Aurora.
• Programming experience with PowerShell or Python.
• Experience with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools, such as Terraform.
• Experience with Kafka (Confluent Kafka), such as administration and troubleshooting.
• Extensive experience with performance analysis and tuning.
• Experience working closely with engineering teams, including requirements gathering, design reviews and delivering work on tight deadlines.
• Experience administering high-function, high-availability production systems.

NICE TO HAVES

• Experience building Kafka connectors and topics.

• Experience with Snowflake.
• Experience with other relational databases such as MySQL.
