  • Perform regular backup validation, restoration testing, and support DR exercises to meet RTO/RPO targets.

Incident Management & Troubleshooting

  • Investigate and resolve performance degradation, data inconsistencies, replication failures, and query inefficiencies.
  • Participate in major incident response and root cause analysis (RCA), implementing preventive measures.

Cloud & Data Platform (AWS & Snowflake)

  • Manage cloud-based database workloads (AWS RDS, EC2, Snowflake).
  • Implement best practices for security, scalability, and cost optimization.
  • Support data integration pipelines and collaborate on cloud architecture and deployments.

Monitoring, Automation & Tooling

  • Maintain monitoring, alerting, and logging using CloudWatch, Grafana, Splunk.
  • Develop automation scripts for maintenance, monitoring, housekeeping, and optimization tasks.

Security, Compliance & Governance

  • Enforce access controls, encryption, audit logging, and regulatory compliance.
  • Support audits and provide documentation/evidence as needed.

Release & Deployment Support

  • Support database changes and application releases, including schema updates, data migrations, version control, and rollback planning.
  • Validate post-deployment changes and coordinate with application/infrastructure teams.

Documentation & Continuous Improvement

  • Maintain database documentation, SOPs, runbooks, incident reports, and RCA.

  • 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.
