  • Migrate & Validate: Execute zero-downtime migration, update app connections, verify data integrity, benchmark performance, and maintain rollback options;
  • Document & Transfer: Deliver runbooks, dashboards, maintenance schedules, and conduct knowledge-transfer sessions with internal teams;
  • Maintain & Support: Provide ongoing optimization, backup/DR validation, and performance monitoring post-migration.

Must haves

  • 5+ years of experience with database administration and migrations;
  • Expert-level knowledge of PostgreSQL/MySQL;
  • Proven experience migrating from AWS RDS to self-hosted solutions;
  • Strong Linux system administration skills;
  • Experience with database clustering and replication (e.g., RDS, Aurora, PostgreSQL, MySQL);
  • Proficiency in backup and disaster recovery solutions;
  • Infrastructure as Code experience (Terraform, Ansible, or similar);
  • Upper-Intermediate English level.

Nice to haves

  • Previous cost optimization projects with documented savings;
  • Experience with database performance tuning and optimization;
  • Knowledge of containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes);
  • Familiarity with monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, Zabbix);
