About the Role

Help chart the course for database technology for us. We need top technical talent to supplement our Database Engineering team.

We define, design, implement, test, and communicate the architectures, configurations, best practices, and standards for optimal use of database technologies across the company, both on-prem and public cloud. We evaluate new database versions, product enhancements, features, components and extensions for performance, throughput, scalability, availability, monitoring, and security; and we partner with our hosting, database administration, and operational support teams to operationalize and harden database technology for our top-tier financial applications.

The candidate will bring solid knowledge of DBMS concepts such as ACID, CAP and consistency. The ideal candidate will have experience with enterprise-scale cloud database deployments, including intra- and inter-data-center high availability configurations, fault tolerance and failover, replication, cluster management, automated provisioning, upgrade techniques, backup & restoration techniques, security mechanisms, health monitoring and alerting techniques, and troubleshooting.
