• SQL and NoSQL backend development (experience with large-scale distributed databases a plus)
• GitHub, pytest, CI/CD pipelines
• Large-scale server infrastructure (Linux, cross-platform awareness)

The Right Fit:

• 2+ years of backend software engineering experience, ideally on systems that serve millions of users across multiple platforms.
• Proficiency in one or more backend languages (Java, Python, TypeScript, or similar); comfortable picking up new languages as needed.
• Practical understanding of AI workflows — data ingestion, preprocessing, inference, and agent-based orchestration.
• Experience building or working with large-scale APIs and distributed storage or data systems.
• Production-quality coding habits: rigorous testing, clear documentation, and attention to security and performance.
• Customer-focused mindset — you think about the developer and end-user experience in everything you build.
• Strong written communication skills; you can explain technical decisions clearly to both engineers and non-engineers.
• Good attitude, cross-functional collaboration skills, and a genuine desire to work in a fast-paced environment with evolving requirements.

Bonus Points For:

• Experience building or evaluating AI agents and multi-step tool-use systems.
• Experience with Cassandra or other large-scale NoSQL systems.
• Familiarity with ReactJS or front-end frameworks.
• Prior work with vector databases or embedding pipelines.

• Review and influence existing epics, stories, and technical designs, identifying gaps and driving improvements.
• Define and maintain architectural standards and patterns for databases across our public cloud (provisioning, configuration, lifecycle management, monitoring, security).
• Work closely with platform, networking, and security teams to integrate DBaaS into our cloud infrastructure, including identity, networking, billing, self-service, and automation.
• Collaborate with Product Management to align technical roadmap with product vision, SLAs/SLOs, and customer requirements.
• Serve as the highest-level technical escalation point for DBaaS-related issues in development, staging, and production environments.
• Support onboarding and success of early “friendly” customers: assist with deployments, performance tuning, troubleshooting, and architecture guidance.
• Define and evolve operational runbooks, incident response patterns, and SRE practices for the DBaaS platform.
• Mentor and coach other engineers and architects as we build an internal team around the service, raising the overall bar for database and data platform expertise.
• Establish and enforce security, compliance, and data protection best practices for the DBaaS offering (encryption, access control, auditing, regulatory considerations).
• Participate in capacity planning and cost optimization, ensuring the service is economically viable at scale.
• Conduct periodic architecture reviews and post-incident reviews, driving continuous improvement in reliability and customer experience.
• Support and advise internal teams on the operation, performance, and troubleshooting of existing database clusters, in addition to primary ownership of the DBaaS platform.

Required Skills & Experience:

• Expert-level experience in database engineering, data platforms, or infrastructure, with significant ownership of production database systems or services.
• Deep expertise with at least one major relational database engine (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, or similar), including replication, backup/restore, performance tuning, and operational best practices.
• Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure concepts, including compute, networking, storage, and security in public cloud or large private cloud environments.
• Experience integrating databases or DBaaS-like offerings with cloud control planes, APIs, and automation/orchestration systems.
• Strong background in reliability engineering for data services (monitoring, alerting, SLOs, incident management, capacity planning).
• Familiarity with security and compliance requirements for database services (encryption at rest/in transit, access control, auditing, data retention, regulatory considerations).
• Proficiency with infrastructure-as-code and automation tools (e.g., Terraform, Ansible, or similar) and comfort working with CI/CD pipelines.
• Scripting or programming skills (e.g., Python, Go, Bash or similar) for automation, tooling, and integration.
• Proven track record of technical leadership: influencing designs across teams, mentoring engineers, and making clear trade-off decisions.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to work effectively with external vendors, internal stakeholders, and customers.

Nice to Have (Preferred Skills):

• Strong, hands-on expertise with both MySQL and PostgreSQL databases.
• Experience designing or operating multi-tenant, high-availability, and distributed database architectures in a cloud or large-scale environment.
• Experience designing or operating a DBaaS offering (e.g., Amazon RDS/Aurora, Azure Database, Cloud SQL, or similar managed services).
• Knowledge of NoSQL or specialized data stores (e.g., Redis, MongoDB, Cassandra) and when to apply them.
• Experience in Kubernetes-based data workloads, operators, or stateful services.
• Familiarity with multi-region architectures, data residency, and geo-replication patterns.
• Exposure to observability stacks (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK/OpenSearch, OpenTelemetry) for data services.
• Relevant certifications in databases, cloud architecture, or security are a plus.

Qualifications:

• Demonstrated success owning the architecture and technical direction of a mission-critical platform or service.
