The engineer builds and operates relational and key-value stores such as MySQL and Redis, verifies and introduces new database versions and features, manages developer account permissions, improves performance and cost monitoring, and visualizes database metrics. The role also supports developers by teaching application developers, reviewing table designs and tuning SQL. The environment includes Aurora MySQL, ElastiCache Redis, DynamoDB, Neptune, Elasticsearch, Datadog and Terraform.

Required are SQL knowledge, table design, and database maintenance and operation experience, along with monitoring and performance tuning of database products. Preferred are experience developing and running large services, MySQL operations, and AWS managed services such as Aurora and RDS.
