Hi all. I'd like to tap into the list's experience regarding the job of a DBA in general and Pg DBA in particular. I see that most of the DBA job posts ask for Sr or Ssr which is understandable given that databases are among a company’s most valuable assets, but it is also an obvious catch-22. So I'd like to ask the list's part- and full-time DBAs, if it's not too personal, how they landed their jobs. Is it an easier and more common entry point to be a part-time DBA e.g. perform DBA duties as part of being a U**X sysadmin? Is it more common to start as a developer and change focus to DBA? In particular how does one go about starting as a Pg DBA? Is the most common case by migrating from another DBMS?
