Remote Cloud Database Administrator (AWS/Azure/GCP)

Make an Impact—From Anywhere

Ever thought about how every critical business insight, real-time dashboard, and product feature relies on seamless, secure, and scalable data? As a Remote Cloud Database Administrator, you’ll shape the digital backbone for fast-moving teams and visionary leaders. Imagine supporting engineers launching features to thousands, analysts uncovering market trends, and leaders making pivotal decisions—all with the reliability and speed of your expertly managed cloud infrastructure. If you thrive on solving puzzles, anticipating risks, and turning chaos into clarity, you’ll find a home here.

Your Mission: Secure, Optimize, and Empower

No two days look the same. One morning, you might fine-tune a PostgreSQL cluster on AWS to reduce query latency for a customer-facing analytics dashboard. Later, you’re collaborating with DevOps on Azure to automate failover, then reviewing backup strategies for mission-critical data pipelines on GCP. Your proactive monitoring stops issues before they escalate, and you’re never just maintaining—you’re elevating. Every script, migration, and security patch you own fuels both team velocity and data integrity.

Key Outcomes & Responsibilities

• Enable lightning-fast, always-on cloud databases across AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, allowing teams to move from idea to launch without delay.
• Craft, test, and implement backup and disaster recovery strategies to ensure business continuity in all scenarios, whether planned or unexpected.
• Partner with engineering, analytics, and support to deliver secure, accessible, and high-performing databases for internal apps, customer portals, and global products.
• Analyze database workloads and usage patterns to recommend cost-optimization and scaling strategies, ensuring resources align with the company’s ambitions without waste.
• Proactively identify performance bottlenecks and resolve them before they impact the user experience.
• Advocate for robust security—enforcing encryption, access controls, and compliance across all cloud platforms so data remains trusted.
• Automate routine tasks through scripting (Python, Bash, PowerShell), empowering your team to focus on big-picture innovation instead of manual fixes.
• Guide engineers through smooth database migrations, upgrades, and schema changes—every transition is seamless, and every change is documented.
• Document your work in clear, straightforward language so that anyone—whether an engineer or an executive—can understand the story behind the numbers.

Tools, Tech, and Workflow

Your day-to-day playground includes managed services like Amazon RDS, Azure SQL Database, and Google Cloud SQL. You’ll get hands-on with tools such as CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, and Stackdriver to monitor, alert, and report on health and performance. Scripting and automation? That’s where Python and PowerShell come into play. Version control? Git keeps everything transparent and collaborative. And our remote collaboration stack—Slack, Notion, Zoom—keeps you connected, no matter where you log in from.

Who Thrives Here?

You’re the type who translates complex database architectures into simple, actionable steps for any audience—over a quick Zoom chat or a detailed Slack thread. You move quickly, but you always have the space to think deeply, strategize, and deliver real value. Curiosity drives you: you’ll experiment with new cloud-native features, advocate for best practices, and stay ahead of emerging security standards. Experience with multi-cloud environments, automation, and performance tuning? You’ll fit right in.

Growth, Support, and Environment

Here, remote isn’t just a perk—it’s how we operate. You’ll have flexible hours, the autonomy to set your own priorities and the support of a team that believes in candid feedback and continuous learning.
