Qualifications

- Deep SQL expertise including performance tuning, locking, and transaction isolation tradeoffs.
- Experience with migration tooling, zero-downtime deploy patterns, and schema evolution at scale.
- Understanding of encryption, auditing, role-based access, and least-privilege database users.
- Strong collaboration skills with backend engineers and CloudOps/SRE peers.
Nice to have
