Job Description and Details:
Client is seeking a Senior NoSQL Database Administrator to support the Property Engagement Platform (PEP), a mission-critical application leveraging AWS DynamoDB and DAX alongside other NoSQL technologies. While the DynamoDB/DAX footprint is smaller than our relational estate, this role is critical to ensuring availability, performance, and operational consistency for latency-sensitive and high-throughput workloads.
This role requires hands-on experience operating NoSQL platforms in production, with a strong understanding of data modeling, access patterns, capacity management, and operational tradeoffs unique to NoSQL systems. Experience with Couchbase, Amazon DocumentDB, and Datadog is a strong plus.
Responsibilities
"
Own operational support and lifecycle management for DynamoDB and DAX environments supporting PEP.
"
Partner with PEP application teams to design and validate DynamoDB data models, access patterns, and partition strategies.
"
Manage DynamoDB capacity planning, including on-demand vs provisioned throughput, autoscaling, and cost optimization.
"
Support and operate DAX clusters, including cache behavior tuning, failover considerations, and performance validation.
"
Design and support low-impact change and deployment strategies for NoSQL workloads.
"
Monitor NoSQL environments using CloudWatch and Datadog, identifying performance bottlenecks and availability risks.
"
Implement security controls including IAM-based access, encryption at rest and in transit, and least-privilege policies.
"
Collaborate with Cloud Engineering and DevOps teams using Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code to provision and manage NoSQL resources.
"
Support incident response and on-call rotations for production NoSQL platforms.
"
Produce operational documentation, runbooks, and best practices for NoSQL usage across PEP.
"
Provide guidance on NoSQL vs relational tradeoffs, ensuring appropriate technology choices for application use cases.
Qualifications
"
Senior-level experience supporting DynamoDB in production environments.
"
Hands-on experience with DAX, including cache behavior, performance tuning, and operational considerations.
"
Strong understanding of NoSQL data modeling, partitioning, consistency models, and access pattern design.
"
Experience operating NoSQL systems at scale with high availability and low latency requirements.
"
Strong knowledge of AWS services including IAM, VPC, CloudWatch, and KMS.
"
Experience using Terraform or similar IaC tools to manage DynamoDB, DAX, and related infrastructure.
"
Experience supporting 24/7 production platforms and participating in on-call rotations.
"
Ability to work independently, troubleshoot complex production issues, and communicate clearly with application teams.
Nice-to-Have / Strong Plus
"
Experience with Couchbase (clusters, XDCR, upgrades, performance tuning).
"
Experience with Amazon DocumentDB or MongoDB-compatible platforms.
"
Experience with Datadog for NoSQL monitoring, alerting, and dashboarding.
"
Background transitioning from relational databases (MySQL/Postgres) to NoSQL platforms.
"
Familiarity with high-scale, multi-region application architectures.
