Job Title: PostgreSQL Lead

Company: Mydbops

About us:

Mydbops helps fast-growing teams and unicorns run mission-critical databases with speed, scale, and reliability. Trusted by 800+ clients, including 30+ unicorns, we optimize and manage systems like MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, TiDB, and Cassandra, powering 10B+ transactions daily across industries such as fintech, SaaS, healthcare, logistics, and e-commerce.

With 10 years of deep expertise, we build automation tools, lead complex migrations, and solve high-impact performance and database challenges. We are ISO and PCI-DSS certified, combining engineering excellence with enterprise-grade security and compliance.

Role Overview

As the PostgreSQL Lead, you will own the design, implementation, and operational excellence of PostgreSQL environments. You’ll lead technical decision-making, mentor the team, interface with customers, and drive key initiatives covering performance tuning, HA architectures, migrations, and cloud deployments.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead PostgreSQL production environments: architecture, stability, performance, and scalability
  • Oversee complex troubleshooting, query optimisation, and performance analysis
  • Architect and maintain HA/DR systems (e.g., Streaming Replication, Patroni, repmgr)
  • Define backup, recovery, replication, and failover protocols
  • Guide DB migrations, patches, and upgrades across environments
  • Collaborate with DevOps and cloud teams for infrastructure automation
  • Use monitoring (pg_stat_statements, PMM, Nagios or any monitoring stack) to resolve issues proactively
  • Provide technical mentorship—conduct peer reviews, upskill, and onboard junior DBAs
  • Lead customer interactions: understand requirements, design solutions, and present proposals
  • Drive process improvements and establish database best practices

Requirements

  • Experience: 4-5 years in PostgreSQL administration, with at least 2+ years in a leadership role
  • Performance Optimisation: Expert in query tuning, indexing strategies, partitioning, and execution plan analysis.
  • Extension Management: Proficient with critical PostgreSQL extensions including:

pg_stat_statements – query performance tracking

pg_partman – partition maintenance

pg_repack – online table reorganisation

uuid-ossp – UUID generation

pg_cron – native job scheduling

auto_explain – capturing costly queries

  • Backup & Recovery: Deep experience with pgBackRest, Barman, and implementing Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR).
  • High Availability & Clustering: Proven expertise in configuring and managing HA environments using Patroni, repmgr, and streaming replication.
  • Cloud Platforms: Strong operational knowledge of AWS RDS and Aurora PostgreSQL, including parameter tuning, snapshot management, and performance insights.
  • Scripting & Automation: Skilled in Linux system administration, with advanced scripting capabilities in Bash and Python.
  • Monitoring & Observability: Familiar with pg_stat_statements, PMM, Nagios, and building custom dashboards using Grafana and Prometheus.
  • Leadership & Collaboration: Strong problem-solving skills, effective communication with stakeholders, and experience leading database reliability and automation initiatives.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in CS, Engineering, or equivalent
  • PostgreSQL certifications (e.g., EDB, AWS)
  • Consulting/service delivery experience in managed services or support roles
  • Experience in large-scale migrations and modernisation projects
  • Exposure to multi-cloud environments and DBaaS platforms

What We Offer:

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.
  • Opportunity to work with a dynamic and innovative team.
  • Professional growth and development opportunities.
  • Collaborative and inclusive work environment.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
