NoSQL Automation DBA (Cassandra/Neo4j)

True must-haves

1. Hands-on NoSQL DBA experience across at least two platforms

• Called out the five supported technologies as Cassandra, Neo4j, Elasticsearch, SingleStore, and StarDog, with a minimum expectation of two platforms.

2. Neo4j and Cassandra are the highest-value platform combination

• When asked where the current gap is, the manager specifically said he needs Neo4j and Cassandra with automation skills.

3. Automation development experience is not optional

• The role is modernization-driven, and the manager repeatedly emphasized automation, OLAM, Python scripting, and SDD/spec-driven development.
• OLAM can be replaced with Linux VM or Linux Virtual Machines in the search.

4. Python scripting knowledge

• Python was specifically called out as part of the automation skill set needed for the role.

5.AI-native development / SDD experience

• The Manager confirmed the team is already using Devin and SDD-style work, and he framed strong SDD experience as a key expectation.

6. Linux VM experience

7. Independent hands-on execution

• This is not a consulting/advisory role. The manager said he is not looking for someone who only talks through best practices or refers to documentation. The person needs to be hands-on and able to perform the work.
