Senior PostgreSQL Support Engineer

This role is for you if you live and breathe PostgreSQL, thrive on solving the toughest performance puzzles, and enjoy mentoring the next generation of database professionals.

About Our Team

We are a team of experts who architect, optimize, and secure mission-critical databases for clients around the globe. We move fast, learn constantly, and collaborate as one unit.

Your Key Responsibilities

  • Act as the final escalation point for complex incidents—performance degradation, data corruption investigations, large-scale failovers, advanced replication scenarios, and more.
  • Design & automate deployments of PostgreSQL in Kubernetes (k8s) with Operators (e.g., Zalando, CrunchyData), crafting Helm charts, CRDs, and automation through Terraform or Ansible.
  • Tune & optimize by profiling slow queries, balancing workloads, and architecting capacity planning.
  • Build and operate resilient clusters with Patroni, repmgr, streaming replication, synchronous replication, and DR strategies (warm standbys, logical replication, BDR).
  • Architect end-to-end pipelines in Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, VictoriaMetrics, and integrate with ELK/EFK stacks for logs and traces.
  • Implement encryption at rest (TDE, LUKS), TLS in transit, role-based access control, and audit logging to meet GDPR, SOC 2, HIPAA, or ISO 27001 requirements.
  • Coach junior engineers in best practices—schema design, indexing strategies (BRIN, GIN, GiST), partitioning, and PL/pgSQL development patterns.
  • Contribute to internal knowledge bases, run 'lunch & learn' sessions, author runbooks, and refine our support playbooks.

What You Bring

Required:

  • 5+ years administering PostgreSQL in production at scale (v9.6–15+)
  • Deep expertise in Linux (RHEL/CentOS, Ubuntu) and shell scripting (Bash, Python)
  • Proven track record with Kubernetes and PostgreSQL Operators
  • Mastery of performance tuning: query plans, WAL tuning, connection pooling (PgBouncer, Pgpool-II)
  • Hands-on with Prometheus/Grafana monitoring stacks
  • Excellent problem-solving, written/spoken English, and customer-facing skills

Highly Desirable

  • Experience with cloud-native services (AWS RDS/Aurora, GCP Cloud SQL, Azure Database for PostgreSQL)
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins) and IaC tools (Terraform, Ansible)
  • Background in backup/restore strategies (pgBackRest, Barman), PITR, and logical backup tooling
  • Working knowledge of NoSQL integrations (TimescaleDB, PostGIS, Citus)
  • Certifications: CKA, CKAD, or PostgreSQL Certified Professional

What We Offer

  • Work-life balance: Flexible hours, remote-first culture
  • A competitive salary pegged to experience, with performance bonuses
