Transform fixed income trading with Trumid’s agile technology, market expertise, and superior design—trusted by 1,000 institutions.
About the role
This role owns data resilience and continuity, and the scope test is simple: if losing it loses data, or makes data unavailable, it’s yours. The job exists so that data-layer failure modes — storage contention, replica lag, region loss — are found and retired in drills, not discovered in production. Our reliability doctrine is to assume failure and concentrate statefulness into a small core of systems proven against specific failure modes.
What they're looking for
- Five or more years running production PostgreSQL at meaningful scale — ideally on RDS or Aurora — with depth in the internals: replication, WAL mechanics, MVCC and vacuum behavior, query planning and performance
- You’ve owned the full lifecycle of data somewhere, not just the query path: retention, backup and restore, access control, and security posture
- Disaster-recovery experience you can talk through concretely — failovers you designed, drills you ran, and what they changed
- Infrastructure fluency: infrastructure-as-code (Terraform or similar), scripting (Python, bash, SQL), Linux, and cloud storage/IOPS characteristics
- An SRE sensibility: SLOs, blameless postmortems, and a preference for rehearsed over improvised
- Clear writing — you leave runbooks and decision records behind you
