Document standards for naming, retention, PII handling, and access—aligned to security and compliance expectations. Qualifications 4+ years hands-on with PostgreSQL (or comparable enterprise RDBMS) in production environments. Deep SQL expertise including performance tuning, locking, and transaction isolation tradeoffs. Experience with migration tooling, zero-downtime deploy patterns, and schema evolution at scale. Understanding of encryption, auditing, role-based access, and least-privilege database users. Strong collaboration skills with backend engineers and CloudOps/SRE peers. Nice to have Experience with columnar/warehouse systems (e.g., Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift) or dbt-style pipelines. Familiarity with Django ORM internals and multi-tenant data patterns.
