About Company
An enterprise tech startup founded in 2016 and based in Bengaluru. The company builds India's paperless digital infrastructure — covering digital identity verification, legal e-signing, document automation, eNACH payment automation, and e-KYC.
It serves 1,500+ enterprises and 100 million individual users. The company runs lean at ~90 people, with ~40 engineers, and operates at the intersection of financial inclusion and regulatory-grade reliability.
Its culture rewards ownership, first-principles thinking, and craftsmanship over process.
Position Overview
This is a founding seat on the company's Platform Pod — a greenfield infrastructure team with a P0 mandate. As the Data Infrastructure SME, you will own the entire database estate: performance, replication, backup/DR, capacity, and cost across high-throughput transactional systems underpinning payments, identity, e-sign, and compliance products. You will also define the data-layer standards and self-serve tooling that product teams across a ~40-engineer organisation depend on.
Build the database platform behind high-scale, mission-critical systems.
We’re looking for a Data Infrastructure SME who can own databases beyond day-to-day operations — from performance and reliability to migrations, automation and platformization.
You’ll work with MySQL, PostgreSQL, TiDB-class distributed systems and help build the foundation for a future self-serve database platform / DBaaS.
What You’ll Own
- Own production database infrastructure across performance, replication, backup/DR, upgrades, capacity and cost.
- Drive schema, query and migration best practices across engineering teams.
- Work deeply with MySQL/PostgreSQL internals and distributed SQL/NoSQL systems at scale.
- Design and automate database provisioning, lifecycle management, recovery and upgrades.
- Lead large-scale production migrations with minimal downtime and zero data loss.
- Build database capabilities for customer-controlled/on-prem environments, where hands-on access may be limited.
- Partner with engineering teams to build self-service tooling, guardrails and future DBaaS capabilities.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of deep hands-on production database ownership.
- Internals-level expertise in PostgreSQL or MySQL.
- Experience with distributed SQL/NoSQL databases at scale.
- Proven experience with database automation, self-service tooling or DBaaS/platform engineering.
- Track record of successfully executing critical production database migrations.
- Strong understanding of HA, replication, DR, performance tuning and capacity planning.
Bonus Points
Experience with TiDB / CockroachDB / YugabyteDB, Kubernetes/Terraform, or banking, payments, fintech and other transaction-critical systems.
If you’ve built and operated databases at scale — and want to turn that expertise into a platform — we’d love to hear from you.
What We Offer
- Founding seat on the Platform Pod — greenfield mandate with P0 priority and direct influence over infrastructure decisions across a ~40-engineer organisation
- Ownership of a domain that touches every product — payments, identity, e-sign, and compliance — with real SLA accountability
- Lean, high-trust environment: ~90-person company where platform decisions ship fast and your work is visible to leadership
