You'll work with cross-functional teams to implement effective data storage solutions, troubleshoot problems, and scale systems to meet expanding business requirements. This role provides an opportunity to work on creative projects in a collaborative setting, contributing to the foundation of our technological infrastructure.

Key Responsibilities

  • Create, implement, and optimize relational and non-relational databases (such as SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and MongoDB) to support high-volume applications.
  • Use database tuning, indexing, and query optimization to improve speed and reduce latency.
  • Create and maintain ETL processes for data migration and integration.
  • Maintain data security through encryption, access controls, and compliance with legislation such as GDPR and HIPAA.
  • Maintain database health, backups, and disaster recovery plans.
  • Work with engineers and data scientists to integrate databases into cloud platforms (such as AWS and Azure).

  • Save database structures, procedures, and best practices for future reference.

Skills

  • Proficiency in SQL and NoSQL databases; experience with database design tools (e.g., ERD); knowledge of cloud databases (RDS, DynamoDB); Python, Bash, or PowerShell scripting; and familiarity with database deployment CI / CD pipelines.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities; great communication skills for technical explanations; ability to work independently and collaboratively; and attention to detail for data accuracy.
  • Knowledge of big data tools (e.g., Hadoop, Kafka) and DevOps processes.
  • Education & Experience

  • A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related discipline (master's preferable).
  • 2-5 years of hands-on experience as a Database Engineer or a related function.
  • Proven experience handling large-scale databases in a production setting.
  • US work permit is required; there is no sponsorship available.
  • Annual compensation ranges from $120,000 to $160,000, based on experience and location in the USA.

    Compensation & Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance with full premium coverage for employees; HSA / FSA choices.
  • 401(k) matches up to 6% of salary.
  • 20 days of PTO, 10 paid holidays, unlimited sick days, and parental leave.
  • An annual $2,000 budget for certifications (e.g., Oracle, AWS) and conferences.
  • Flexible remote work schedule, home office allowance ($1,000 per year), and wellness initiatives such as gym memberships.
  • Company laptop, internet reimbursement, and team-building activities.
