Lead the administration and managment of several large database
instances with a focus on PostreSQL.

Skills:

o Deep knowledge of PostgreSQL in a mission critical no-downtime
environment.

o PostgreSQL query tuning.

Description environment:

We manage several terabyte-sized databases in Oracle, MySQL and
PostgreSQL. Our PostgreSQL instance serves as the datawarehouse
store for a large, heavily used Oracle OLTP system. Active
data replication happens from Oracle and to Oracle and MySQL.
In this position you will be responsible for overseeing the ongoing
health of the PostgreSQL system and its interoperability with other
production databases. You will build and maintain new data
replication facilities from non-PostgreSQL databases. You will
assist users in tuning queries and tuning large recurrent production
data mining tasks. This is an opportunity to work with one of the
larger PostgreSQL instances around (frequently used tables with
1 billion rows).
