Design and implement database schemas, indexing strategies, partitioning, and data modeling for performance and scalability.
Monitor database health and performance; perform tuning (queries, indexes, parameters) and capacity planning.
Implement and manage backup, restore, and disaster recovery procedures; regularly test recovery processes.
Manage high-availability and replication setups (streaming replication, clustering, Always On, Galera).
Ensure database security: access controls, encryption at rest/in transit, auditing, and patch management.
Automate routine tasks (provisioning, maintenance, patching) using scripts and IaC/automation tools.
Troubleshoot production incidents, perform root-cause analysis, and lead remediation and post-incident reviews.
Collaborate with developers and application teams on schema changes, queries, and migration strategies; review DDL/DDL changes.
Maintain documentation: runbooks, maintenance plans, configuration baselines, and capacity records.
Contribute to backup retention policies, data lifecycle management, and compliance requirements (PII handling, GDPR/HIPAA where applicable).
Mentor junior DBAs and participate in on-call rotation for database incidents.

Qualifications

Education: BS in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent experience.
Experience: 3–7+ years as a DBA or database engineer; senior roles commonly 5+ years.
Technical skills: Deep knowledge of one or more RDBMS (Postgres, MySQL/MariaDB, Oracle, SQL Server) and familiarity with NoSQL (MongoDB, Cassandra) beneficial.
Performance & tuning: Strong SQL expertise, query optimization, index design, and execution plan analysis.
High availability & backups: Hands-on with replication, clustering, PITR, logical/physical backups, and recovery testing.
Cloud & tooling: Experience with managed database services (RDS/Aurora, Cloud SQL, Azure SQL), monitoring tools, and provisioning automation (Terraform, Ansible).
Scripting & automation: Proficient in Bash, Python, or PowerShell for automation and tooling.
Security & compliance: Knowledge of encryption, RBAC, auditing, and data protection regulations.
Soft skills: Problem-solving, clear communication, documentation discipline, and ability to collaborate across teams.

Working conditions

On-call rotation for incident response; may include after-hours maintenance windows and migrations.
Hybrid or on-site access to data centers may be required for certain environments.

Performance metrics

Database availability and SLA/SLO adherence.
Mean time to recover (MTTR) and incident frequency.
