What will you be doing?

We're looking for a Database Migration Leader to drive the migration of our on-premises database environments to the cloud (AWS and/or Azure). This is a hands-on, senior technical role: you'll design the migration strategy, lead execution end-to-end, and stay close to the technical details — writing runbooks, validating cutover plans, and troubleshooting issues alongside the team rather than only managing from a distance.

You'll partner closely with DBAs, application teams, cloud architects, and infrastructure engineering to move critical workloads with minimal downtime and no data loss, while building the migration patterns and automation that make future migrations faster and safer.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end migration strategy for moving on-premises databases (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL) to cloud-native or cloud-hosted equivalents on AWS and/or Azure.
  • Lead technical assessment and discovery: inventory source databases, map dependencies, size target environments, and identify migration blockers (schema incompatibilities, stored procedures, licensing, latency-sensitive workloads).
  • Implement migration tooling and patterns (e.g., AWS DMS/SCT, Azure Database Migration Service, native replication, backup/restore, CDC-based near-zero-downtime migration).
  • Design and execute cutover and rollback plans, including data validation, reconciliation, and post-migration performance tuning.
  • Lead a team of engineers/DBAs through migration waves — set technical direction, review work, unblock issues, and stay hands-on for the highest-risk migrations.
  • Build repeatable runbooks, automation scripts, and migration playbooks to standardize the process across waves and reduce manual effort.
  • Leverage AI tooling to accelerate migrations and data validation efforts.
  • Coordinate cutover windows with application owners, infrastructure, and business stakeholders; communicate status, risks, and timelines clearly to leadership.
  • Establish monitoring, backup, DR, and security/compliance controls for migrated databases in the cloud target environment.
  • Conduct post-migration reviews to capture lessons learned and improve the migration methodology over time.
