Senior Database Administrator and Performance Engineer at Agiloft

This role is ideal for a senior-level DBA who specializes in performance engineering within a cloud-native SaaS environment. You should have 5+ years of experience managing relational databases (specifically MySQL and PostgreSQL) and a deep understanding of optimizing query performance and logical schema designs. This is a technical, cross-functional position that bridges the gap between Cloud Operations and Application Engineering. The position offers a competitive salary of $120k–$150k and the flexibility of being a fully remote U.S. role. A standout aspect is the company’s "EX = CX" philosophy, which translates to tangible wellness perks like quarterly "no-questions-asked" wellness days and floating holidays. You’ll also get to work with modern technologies, including AI-assisted development tools and vector databases for AI/ML. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Have extensive experience managing and tuning Amazon RDS and Aurora. * Mastery of SQL for complex query optimization and index management. * Are comfortable using AI-assisted tools (like Copilot or Cursor) to improve your workflow. * Enjoy collaborating with developers to build scalable, high-performing database schemas from the ground up.
