The posting

We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Database Administrator with deep hands on expertise in MySQL, InnoDB, AWS RDS, and Amazon Aurora MySQL to join a sprint based Database Reliability Engineering (DBRE) team.

This is not a traditional ticket driven DBA role. You’ll help evolve database operations into a reliability first, automation driven, self service platform, independently troubleshooting complex production issues, executing recovery under pressure, and automating manual work.

Key Responsibilities

  • Administer and optimize MySQL/InnoDB databases on AWS RDS and Aurora MySQL, including provisioning, scaling, patching, upgrades, and decommissioning
  • Troubleshoot complex production issues such as slow queries, replication lag, locking, deadlocks, and resource contention
  • Tune performance through execution plan analysis, query and index optimization, and InnoDB configuration
  • Design and maintain backup, restore, PITR, and disaster recovery procedures that meet defined RTOs and RPOs
  • Support high availability using Aurora clusters, Multi AZ, read replicas, and automated failover
  • Monitor health, performance, and capacity using CloudWatch and Performance Insights/Database Insights, and recommend right sizing
  • Automate DBA operations and build self service capabilities using Python, Bash, SQL, AWS CLI, and Infrastructure as Code where applicable
  • Implement secure, least privilege configurations (IAM, encryption, credential management) and support audits and compliance
  • Participate in on call and incident response, including root cause analysis
  • Collaborate in an Agile/Scrum team and maintain runbooks, documentation, and database standards

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in Database Administration, Database Engineering, or Database Reliability Engineering
  • Extensive hands on MySQL experience with deep knowledge of InnoDB internals (transactions, locking, deadlocks, buffer pool, redo/undo logs, crash recovery)
  • Strong hands on experience administering MySQL on AWS RDS and/or Aurora MySQL
  • Proven performance tuning, query optimization, and troubleshooting skills
  • Strong experience with backups, restores, PITR, disaster recovery, and high availability (Multi AZ, read replicas, Aurora failover)
  • Hands on experience with CloudWatch and Performance Insights/Database Insights
  • Strong scripting and automation skills (Python, Bash, SQL, AWS CLI, or similar)
  • Solid understanding of AWS security (IAM, encryption, access controls)
  • Experience in Agile teams, with strong communication and documentation skills
  • Preferred: Terraform or CloudFormation; AWS Lambda, Systems Manager, or EventBridge; PostgreSQL; Kubernetes/EKS; CI/CD; regulated environments; AWS cost optimization; building self service database platforms

Benefits

  • Join Our Dynamic Team: Experience our fun, inclusive, innovative culture that values your unique contributions and supports your professional growth.
  • Embrace the Opportunities: Seize daily chances to learn, innovate, and excel. Make a real impact in your field.
  • Limitless Career Growth: Unlock a world of possibilities and resources to propel your career forward.
  • Fast-Paced Thrills: Thrive in a high-energy, engaging atmosphere. Embrace challenges and reap stimulating rewards.
  • Flexibility, Your Way: Embrace the freedom to work from home or any location of your choice. Create your ideal work environment.
  • Work-Life Balance at Its Best: Say goodbye to stressful commutes and hello to quality time with loved ones. Achieve a healthy work-life integration to perform at your best.

Why it works

3×

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.
