What's the opportunity?
We are looking for a Cloud Architect focused on NoSQL and the AWS ecosystem to expand our team’s capabilities beyond MySQL/Aurora and accelerate our platform evolution at scale.
You will own critical database services in production, driving performance, reliability, automation, and cost efficiency across our cloud data layer.
What will I be doing?
- Own, operate, and optimize DynamoDB workloads in production, including data modeling, capacity strategy (provisioned/on-demand), GSIs/LSIs, TTL, Streams, backup/restore, and multi-region patterns.
- Design, deploy,



and maintain relational and not relational databases, including sharding, indexing strategies, backups, and performance tuning.
- Leverage AWS services across the data stack (e.g., S3, KMS, IAM, CloudWatch, DMS, Lambda) to build reliable, observable, and secure data solutions.
- Implement automation-as-code (CLI/SDK) for schema and capacity changes, operational tasks, and guardrails to reduce toil and error.
- Establish and improve observability for databases (metrics, logs, traces, dashboards, SLOs/alerts) and lead performance/root-cause investigations.
- Collaborate with engineers to design efficient data access patterns and guide migrations and schema evolution with minimal downtime.
- Contribute to reliability engineering practices (backups, DR, chaos/restore testing, incident reviews) across NoSQL platforms.
- Participate in an on-call rotation and attend emergency escalations, including during off-hours
