Cassandra DBA
Provide world-class support and expertise for Cassandra database environments. As a Cassandra Database Engineer, you will design and build highly available, scalable, and efficient NoSQL solutions that align with enterprise standards and security policies. You will represent the Database Engineering team as a subject matter expert in Apache Cassandra and related technologies, including DataStax Cassandra, and contribute to the strategic direction of NoSQL data platforms.
Roles and Responsibilities •Design, deploy, and maintain Cassandra clusters across development, stage, and production environments. •Ensure high availability, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery capabilities in Cassandra deployments. •Collaborate with application teams to understand data access patterns and optimize data models accordingly. •Monitor and tune performance of Cassandra clusters, compaction strategies, and read/write throughput. •Develop and implement backup, restore, and archival strategies •Automate operational tasks using scripting languages (e.g., Python, Bash) and infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Ansible, Terraform). •Participate in on-call rotations and provide production support for critical incidents. •Define and enforce best practices for schema design, replication strategies, and consistency levels. •Lead efforts in upgrading Cassandra versions and applying patches with minimal downtime. •Collaborate with security teams to ensure compliance with internal and external data protection standards. •Document architecture, configurations, and operational procedures for knowledge sharing and audit readiness.
Required Skills and Experience •Deep understanding of Cassandra internals, including repair mechanisms. •Proficiency in NoSQL and experience with Cassandra drivers (Java, Python, etc.). •Experience with monitoring tools such as Prometheus, Grafana, and DataStax OpsCenter. •Familiarity with multi-region deployments and hybrid cloud architectures. •Strong troubleshooting and debugging skills for distributed systems. •Experience with data migration and integration across heterogeneous systems. •Excellent communication and collaboration skills to work across global teams and time zones.
Preferred Qualifications •Experience with complementary NoSQL technologies (e.g., Redis, MongoDB) is a plus. •Exposure to Kubernetes and Cassandra operators (e.g., Cass-Operator) is desirable.
