  • Automation: Utilize Ansible and Terraform to enhance infrastructure and deployment processes.
  • Architecture & Design: Lead planning of database systems and provide insights on schema design for better performance.
  • Performance Engineering: Identify performance problems and tune queries and indexes based on system usage.
  • Development Support: Collaborate with engineering teams to optimize queries and plan safe database migrations.
  • Security & Access Management: Manage database security, encryption, and data access rules.
  • Incident Response: Assist in identifying root causes of database problems and document systems and recovery steps.

Qualifications

  • Cloud Proficiency: Experience managing databases in major cloud environments (like AWS, Azure, or GCP) or private/VPS setups. Knowledge in Amazon Aurora, NoSQL, Columnar DBs, and/or Timeseries is a plus.
  • Automation Mindset: Strong background in scripting and automation to efficiently manage production environments.
  • AI: Ability to use AI tools to assist with coding or monitoring is a great advantage.

Benefits

  • An opportunity to make something great even greater, contributing to the growth and development of the best fintech company on the market.
  • Career prospects - we are young with huge ambitions, and it is important that our employees grow with us.
  • Work with coworkers who are passionate about their business.
  • Compensation that fully corresponds to competence and knowledge, with yearly performance reviews.
  • Opportunity to attend conferences, courses, and professional development at the company's expense - we favor continuous development of our employees.
