Job description

Database Engineer
Who We Are
US Cold owns and operates one of the most complex temperature-controlled logistics networks in North America. Every day, our systems coordinate the storage and movement of food on a national scale across a network of state-of-the-art distribution centers, including multiple highly automated warehouse facilities.
We continue to advance our core warehouse and logistics platforms. Our current focus is on modular, event-driven, API-first and cloud architecture. We continue to enhance reliability and accelerate engineering productivity by strengthening our SRE and AI practices. This is a large investment in innovation to continue to drive operational excellence at our facilities.
If you want to build durable systems that operate in the physical world on a scale, this is that opportunity.
The Job Details
The Database Engineer owns the health, performance, and evolution of the database platforms behind US Cold Storage's warehouse management systems - both the existing Oracle databases and the PostgreSQL and MongoDB Atlas systems powering our next-gen microservices platform in Azure. You'll partner with Infrastructure, DevOps, and Software Engineering to design, implement, and scale database systems while reducing operational toil through CI/CD. You'll also provide real-time support for mission-critical workloads where downtime translates directly to disrupted shipments.
Responsibilities
  • Monitor, patch, and maintain our existing Oracle database infrastructure on OCI, ensuring uptime and reliability for production workloads
  • Tune and optimize Oracle performance through query plan analysis, indexing strategies, and schema-level improvements to meet performance standards
  • Architect, deploy, and manage our modern cloud-based database systems in Azure, including PostgreSQL and MongoDB in support of our modernization initiative
  • Own HA/DR posture across intra-region and cross-region failure scenarios, including defining and validating RPO/RTO targets with the business
  • Partner with DevOps, Development, and Infrastructure teams to ensure database architecture supports application performance targets while managing cloud spend
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines in GitHub Actions and Jenkins to automate schema migrations, environment provisioning, and routine operational tasks
  • Implement and own database observability - query performance monitoring, capacity forecasting, and cost optimization across cloud platforms
  • Provide real-time production support for mission-critical database workloads, including on-call participation and incident response
Technical Environment
  • Azure and OCI Multi-Region Infrastructure
  • Oracle (OCI), PostgreSQL and MongoDB Atlas (Azure)
  • Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Ansible
  • GitHub Actions and Jenkins for CI/CD
  • Observability using Dynatrace and Azure Monitor
What We're Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience as a DBA or Database Engineer, with strong proficiency in Oracle and PostgreSQL
  • Fluency in PL/SQL, including designing and optimizing performant queries
  • Experience with NoSQL/JSON databases a plus
  • Proven ability to diagnose database-related application issues including performance bottlenecks, locking and replication delays
  • Experience managing database infrastructure in the cloud (Azure preferred)
  • Experience deploying database systems using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or similar) and CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, GitHub Actions or similar)
  • Track record building monitoring and alerting for critical database operations (Dynatrace or Azure Monitor a plus)
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor the message to technical and non-technical audiences
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field-or equivalent experience

Why This Role Is Different
  • You will deploy, monitor and tune multiple database types (Oracle, PostgreSQL, MongoDB) across multiple clouds (Azure and OCI)
  • You will use AI-assisted tools (Dynatrace, Azure Monitor, Copilot) to monitor and optimize performance while forecasting and managing cost
  • Your decisions will have an immediate impact on our teams, our systems, and the warehouses moving food across the country

Compensation & Structure
  • Salary Range: $110,000 - $140,000/yr
  • Location: Hybrid, Camden, NJ
  • Travel: Less than 10%
  • Reports to: Platform Lead, Software Development
