# Database Administrator Job Opening at CryptoMize

Database Administrator jobs in Delhi at CryptoMize are open on a rolling, always-hiring basis — our data estate grows with every engagement, and it needs keepers ahead of the growth. This is a full-time, permanent position with immediate joining at our New Delhi HQ, on the infrastructure team that runs the PostgreSQL stores behind our nine intelligence platforms. Below is the complete job description: the responsibilities you will own from day one, the requirements, the seniority path, and the selection process. DBAs who have carried production on-call and want their uptime discipline to matter where the data is client-adjacent intelligence — should read to the end.

## Facts

- Location: New Delhi (HQ), CDR Building, Chhatarpur
- Type: full-time permanent
- Availability: immediate, rolling intake (always hiring)
- Compensation: discussed at screening

## What you will actually do

- Build and maintain high-availability, high-quality database systems sized to each platform\'s real access patterns — not its wishlist
- Own backup, recovery, and disaster-recovery posture for the intelligence estate, with restore drills that are tested, not assumed
- Monitor user access and security: role design, least-privilege enforcement, and audit logging that would satisfy a paranoid client — because it has to
- Manage performance end-to-end — capacity planning, index strategy, query-plan review — on corpora analysts hammer daily
- Design and implement schemas for new engagement data, balancing normalization judgment against query reality
- Carry production on-call for the database layer, with incident command and blameless postmortems on the rare occasions the estate disagrees with us
- Drive the migration discipline: schema changes on live intelligence stores ship through reviewed, reversible steps — you own that pipeline\'s integrity
- Capacity-plan with the platform teams: the estate grows with every engagement, and its headroom is forecast, not discovered, backups restored in drills, not just scheduled

## Skills

- Production PostgreSQL mastery — configuration, replication, failover
- Backup/recovery architecture with verified restores at its core
- Security administration — roles, row-level access thinking, audit trails
- Performance engineering — indexing strategy, plan analysis, capacity planning
- High-availability design — what 99.9999% actually demands operationally
- Schema architecture for analytical and operational workloads
- Linux systems fluency — the databases live on servers, not slides
- Automation discipline — scripted operations, no snowflake procedures
- Incident command under production pressure
- Documentation that makes the estate operable by others
- Mentorship of DBA interns on the infrastructure bench

## Tools

- PostgreSQL 15 (primary platform) with replication tooling
- pgBackRest-class backup and restore infrastructure
- Linux server operations (systemd, shell automation)
- Monitoring and alerting stacks (metrics-driven operations)
- EXPLAIN ANALYZE as a way of life
