Role Description

As a Senior DBRE, you are the guardian of our data’s performance, availability, and scalability. You aren't just managing instances; you are automating the entire lifecycle of our data platform.

  • Modern Data Stack: Support our data warehouse ecosystem by optimizing Snowflake performance, including application packaging and testing.
  • Performance Engineering: Own the deep-level optimization of MSSQL and PostgreSQL at the server, database, and query levels.
  • Capacity Planning & Cost Optimization: Forecast resource utilization across platforms, identify cost-saving opportunities, optimize Snowflake credit usage, and right-size AWS infrastructure.
  • Infrastructure as Code (IaC) & Orchestration: Automate all data infrastructure using Terraform, AWS, Docker, and Kubernetes.
  • CI/CD & Release Management: Manage and optimize deployment pipelines using GitLab and Octopus Deploy, ensuring safe, repeatable database schema changes.
  • Documentation & Knowledge Sharing: Create technical documentation, including runbooks, "how-to" guides for developer self-service, and clear architectural diagrams.
  • On-Call & Triage: Serve as the subject matter expert for SQL Server, Postgres, and Snowflake in a 24/7/365 on-call rotation.

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of experience maintaining and optimizing high-traffic production databases, specifically Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL
  • Expert knowledge in Snowflake
  • Professional experience with Terraform, AWS, GitLab, and Octopus Deploy
  • Expert-level knowledge of Docker and production experience running stateful applications within Kubernetes (K8s)
  • Knowledge of MCP (Model Context Protocol) and experience using LLMs to assist in coding or system automation
  • Expert-level Python and PowerShell skills; familiarity with C# and object-oriented programming (OOP)
  • Expert in tuning queries generated from ORMs (Entity Framework, Dapper, etc.)
  • Hands-on experience with Snowflake (packaging/testing) and DynamoDB; familiarity with OpenSearch, Redis, and DynamoDB

Education

  • B.S./M.S. in Computer Science, Information Systems, or equivalent direct work experience
