Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Database Administrator (DBA) who is equally comfortable tuning a 20-year-old database as they are designing resilient, cloud-ready data platforms. You are deeply experienced, constantly learning, and proud of your craft. In this role, you will be the operational owner of our database environment : ensuring stability, performance, security, and recoverability of critical systems. You will also participate in key projects such as migrations, upgrades, cloud adoption, and new application deployments.

Responsibilities

• Manage and optimize databases across legacy and modern technologies (e.g., SQL Server, Raven DB, Cosmos, MySQL / PostgreSQL, Azure SQL, AWS RDS, Progress, etc.).
• Ensure high availability, performance, and capacity through proactive monitoring, tuning, and maintenance (indexing, statistics, partitioning, resource governance, etc.).
• Design, implement, and regularly test backup and recovery strategies, including disaster recovery and failover procedures.
• Maintain strong security and compliance posture : user access management, roles and permissions, data encryption, auditing, and alignment with corporate and regulatory requirements.
• Perform and coordinate regular maintenance activities such as patching, upgrades, and vulnerability remediation with minimal impact to business operations.
• Provide tier-3 support for complex incidents and production issues, including participation in an on-call rotation where required.
• Participate in infrastructure and application projects : new system implementations, database refactoring, consolidations, and modernization initiatives.
• Collaborate with solution architects, developers, and business analysts to design scalable and resilient database solutions that meet functional and non-functional requirements.
• Lead or support migration efforts from legacy platforms to modern environments (e.g., on-prem to cloud, version upgrades, re-platforming and re-architecture).
• Contribute to the standardization and automation of database operations (e.g., Infrastructure as Code, CI / CD integration, configuration management, scripting).
• Produce and maintain clear documentation : runbooks, topology diagrams, DR procedures, standards, and operational guidelines.
