You will work daily with Kubernetes operators, Helm charts, Ansible playbooks, and CI/CD pipelines to keep databases running reliably at scale. If you have deployed and managed any database on Kubernetes (PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, MySQL, MongoDB - anything counts), and you enjoy solving real operational problems rather than just writing YAML, this role is for you.You will join a small, focused team of experienced engineers and start contributing from day one.

You know the caveats — storage classes, backup strategies, failover behavior, data persistence. Any database counts (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, Redis, etc.).Automation skills: practical experience with at least two of: Ansible, Terraform, Helm. You write automation that others can read, use, and maintain.Linux fundamentals: comfortable with troubleshooting, networking, and system administration on Linux.CI/CD familiarity: experience with GitLab CI, ArgoCD, or similar pipeline/GitOps tools.Communication: able to work effectively in English (written and spoken) in a distributed team.
