About the area:
The DBRE is the person who can combine their professional background with database with a perspective of support and evolution of the services we have. You will work closely with our engineering teams to design, implement, and maintain robust database solutions that meet the needs of our organization.
The DBA profile is often important to elucidate doubts or improvements that require intervention in code or configuration in databases, such as parameters, capacity, monitoring, standards, auditing, among others. And also, we support development teams in tuning and general improvements related to databases.
In addition to this, comes the role of the DBRE which consists of creating and sustaining the platform that databases are operated on. We now have applications and their direct teams as clients. We address InfraAsCode, security, observability, scalability etc. We have the responsibility to standardize and guide the company regarding databases. We always need to be looking for solutions that fit our needs and in the best possible way. Here the scope increases, we stop looking inside the database and start focusing on the surroundings, creating solutions that allow us to continue growing as a structure while maintaining quality and security.
We implement automations that notify us about important things in the databases so we can act quickly before the issues become outages in our products. We leverage our experience as DBAs to improve our tooling in order to make engineering more autonomous and to allow our team more time to seek new solutions.
Responsibilities:
- Support our relational, non-relational, and event-driven stack (AWS RDS MySQL and Postgres, MongoDB Atlas, Redis, Kafka)
- Support the development of solutions that add value to engineering teams, and bring visibility to the health of databases to reduce toil
- Develop and implement database automation tools and scripts to optimize deployment, configuration, and maintenance processes.
- Collaborate with engineering teams to optimize database schema design and query performance.
- Monitor database performance and proactively identify performance bottlenecks and issues.
- Participate in capacity planning and scalability assessments to support the growth of our database infrastructure.
- Design, deploy, and maintain highly available and scalable database systems.
Requirements
- Practical experience with one or more relational database management systems (PostgreSQL, MySQL).
- Strong understanding of database architecture, administration, and optimization techniques.
- Proficiency in SQL and database query optimization.
- Experience with database replication, clustering, and high-availability solutions.
- Solid understanding of database security principles and best practices.
- Experience with automation tools and database configuration management (e.g., Ansible, Puppet, Chef, Terraform).
- Advanced scripting skills (e.g., Python, Shell) for automation and monitoring.
