We offer a contract of employment and a hybrid work model that incorporates solutions developed by the leader and the team.
We invite you to take part in the recruitment process for a position in our core database team.
Your main responsibilities
You will eliminate traditional infrastructure in favor of database services managed in the public cloud and/or those based on Kubernetes
This is a process that won't happen right away, so you will also have to take care of the existing database infrastructure so that it runs smoothly and is always available
At the same time, you will create and maintain tools to improve, optimize and automate tasks in our infrastructure
We are looking for people who
Have at least basic knowledge of relational databases (PostgreSQL preferred) in the field of database administration
Are familiar with as many as possible tools supporting the above technologies (PMM, percona-toolkit, pg_repack, pg_stats_statements etc.)
Have at least basic knowledge of the GNU stack - bash, grep, awk, sed, as well as, of the Python language (as we create many services from simple scripts that automate backup / restore actions to complex data integrations based on the more advanced frameworks like flask or django)
The following are also a plus
Familiarity with Docker and Kubernetes
Some knowledge of the database services in GCP (preferred) or Azure
What we offer
A hybrid work model that you will agree on with your leader and the team. We have well-located offices (with fully equipped kitchens and bicycle parking facilities) and excellent working tools (height-adjustable desks, interactive conference rooms)
Annual bonus up to 10% of the annual salary gross (depending on your annual assessment and the company's results)
A wide selection of fringe benefits in a cafeteria plan – you choose what you like (e.g. medical, sports or lunch packages, insurance, purchase vouchers)
English classes that we pay for related to the specific nature of your job
Laptop with Apple Silicon processor, 36GB RAM - a 16” or 14” MacBook Pro or corresponding Dell with Windows (if you don’t like Macs)
Working in a team you can always count on — we have on board top-class specialists and experts in their areas of expertise
A high degree of autonomy in terms of organizing your team’s work; we encourage you to develop continuously and try out new things
Hackathons, team tourism, training budget and an internal educational platform, MindUp (including training courses on work organization, means of communications, motivation to work and various technologies and subject-matter issues)
