About the Role

We are seeking a Database Developer with strong expertise in MongoDB and working knowledge of MySQL/Aurora on AWS. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience designing, optimizing, and scaling databases, while collaborating closely with development teams and DBAs to ensure high availability, performance, and reliability.

This is a great opportunity for a mid-level developer who wants to expand their cloud and database expertise while contributing to mission-critical systems.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement high-performance MongoDB solutions for demanding workloads.

  • Manage and optimize AWS RDS (MySQL/Aurora) instances, ensuring security, scalability, and cost efficiency.

  • Support database deployments and orchestration with EKS (Kubernetes).

  • Collaborate with developers to design efficient data models, queries, and indexing strategies.

  • Manage database schema versioning and scripts with GitHub and Flyway.

  • Monitor and tune performance using native tools, AWS CloudWatch, Datadog, and proactively address bottlenecks.

  • Ensure data integrity, security, compliance, and disaster recovery readiness.

  • Support migrations and interoperability across different RDBMS platforms.

Required Skills & Experience

  • 3+ years of experience with MongoDB (architecture, design, optimization, and operations).

  • 1-2 years of experience with MySQL (Aurora) development and administration.

  • Hands-on AWS experience with RDS and/or Aurora.

  • Familiarity with Kubernetes (EKS) and containerized deployments.

  • Experience with GitHub-based version control and CI/CD workflows.

  • Strong skills in database performance tuning, troubleshooting, and query optimization.

  • Understanding of the software development life cycle (SDLC).

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills in cross-functional environments.

  • Knowledge of database security, disaster recovery, and data migration practices.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform, CloudFormation).

  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines for database changes.

  • Exposure to monitoring, automation, and container orchestration tools (Kubernetes, Docker).

  • Familiarity with additional AWS services (e.g., Lambda, CloudWatch, IAM).

What You Can Expect

  • A people-first culture that emphasizes growth, learning, and engineering excellence.

  • Opportunities to influence database and platform design decisions.

  • A collaborative and supportive environment with strong cross-team partnerships.

  • The chance to make a tangible impact on products that directly affect customers worldwide.

Joining us is more than saying "yes" to making the world a healthier place. It's discovering a career that's challenging, supportive and inspiring. Where a culture driven by excellence helps you not only meet your goals, but also create new ones.
