Database Support Engineer (APAC)

You have 6+ years in technical support, backend engineering, SRE, or similar.

You know PostgreSQL deeply—autovacuum behavior, WAL growth, long-running transactions, table bloat, and other internals.

You’re strong in high-performance SQL and query optimization.

You’re comfortable troubleshooting complex setups, including multi-tenant schema patterns.

You can debug edge functions and understand distributed system behavior when failures get tricky.

You’ve handled data migration issues (pg_dump/restore, schema drift, failed migrations) and know how to recover safely.

You have hands-on experience with cloud hosting providers like AWS.

You’re comfortable in terminal and Linux environments.

You thrive in high-volume situations and can form/test assumptions quickly.

It’s a full-time position with a required location in APAC time zones (we don’t believe in sustainability of overnight shifts).
