Afilias (www.afilias.info), a global leader in advanced internet technologies, are seeking an experienced PostgreSQL / Slony DBA (in Horsham, PA) to join our Data Base Services team.

 

- Do you want to work with the world's most advanced open-source database?

- Do you have passion for replicated database clusters in a 24x7 environment?

- Did you go to school with little Bobby tables?

 

Experience with Oracle, DB2, Sybase, or MS-SQL is an asset, but if you have been using PostgreSQL for the past few years (Slony experience is desired as well), and are looking to expand your experience - this position is for you!

- You will be part of a DBA team responsible for 100+ production, QA, and development PostgreSQL databases running in Slony clusters on Linux.

- You will provide day-to-day support during normal business hours, perform database maintenance (occasionally after hours and on weekends), and participate in a 24x7 on-call rotation.

- You will also work on development and technical projects with developers, system administrators, and members of other teams.

 

You should be comfortable working with open-source software. We have a track record of contributing back to the open-source products we use. You will be encouraged to contribute to these products, and your assistance in helping us to build better open-source software will be welcomed.

 

You must be able to explain the principals of good database administration, good data analysis, and good database schema design to non-database people.

 

You must also have some experience with most of the following technologies:

- RDBMS & Replication s/w (PostgreSQL & Slony are highly desired).

- SQL queries, triggers, and stored procedures' coding and improvements.

- Puppet or other deployment automation tools.

- Unix shell scripting, and basic Unix/Linux system administration skills.

- A major scripting language (Perl, Ruby, Python, etc.).

- Database performance & capacity monitoring tools (Hyperic, Zenoss, pgstatspack, pgBadger).

 

Knowledge and experience with Data Administration concepts and tools (Metadata Repository, ETLs, etc.) is highly desired as well.

 

The work environment consists of normal business hours in the office, a few trips a year to Toronto (Ontario, Canada), and occasional trips to conferences and training.
