• Operate, optimize and modernize our Mysql database platforms across hybrid environments, spanning both cloud-native and on-premise infrastructures. • Drive high availability, reliability, and security of production databases through automated monitoring, dynamic scaling, proactive alerting, and continuous health assessments, with a strong focus on observability and operational excellence. • Participate in the on-call program to provide application support, handle incident management, and troubleshoot production issues • Collaborate with backend developers to optimize queries, indexes, and schema design, while continuously improving the architecture and deepening your understanding of the global system • Plan and execute platform upgrades to meet evolving use cases and workloads (capacity planning, storage choices), while automating recurring tasks such as maintenance and repairs • Contribute to knowledge sharing through procedure documentation and team training, and stay current with industry best practices and emerging technologies in databases and infrastructure

• Write a small app/plugin/service to automate, i.e. infrastructure checks or support Observability • Build or extend Terraform modules and contribute to Platform Engineering around Observability • Use APM tools like Dynatrace to find performance hotspots (and issues) nobody sees yet • Investigate a tricky production issue by combining logs, metrics and traces into a clear story • Optimize a distributed system that is under a heavy load • Lead improvements after incidents - root cause, patterns, architectural recommendations • Collaborate with developers to shape feature design so that reliability is built in, not added later • You will have real influence. We take suggestions seriously. If something should be redesigned, we redesign it.
