At Cafeto Software, we're looking for a Senior Database Engineer to join an enterprise pricing software team. You'll own the stability and performance of the SQL databases behind pricing calculations, customer-specific logic, and reporting, and help lead a migration from SQL Server to PostgreSQL.

What you'll do

- Monitor, tune, and stabilize SQL Server databases for a cloud single-tenant application (blocking, deadlocks, resource contention)
- Analyze execution plans, indexing, and statistics to speed up critical queries and batch workloads
- Review and improve custom SQL, stored procedures, functions, and views
- Plan and execute the SQL Server to PostgreSQL migration: schema conversion, T-SQL rewrites, data validation
- Set up monitoring, alerting, backup, and maintenance practices, and lead root-cause analysis
- Partner with application engineers on schema changes and efficient data-access patterns

What you bring





- 6+ years in database engineering or DBA roles with production SQL Server
- Expert T-SQL: query tuning, execution plans, indexing, concurrency
- Hands-on PostgreSQL experience (a SQL Server to PostgreSQL migration is a big plus)
- Ability to own deliverables independently and work with distributed US-based teams
- Strong English communication skills
- Experience using AI-assisted development tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude, or similar) is strongly preferred

Tech you'll work with

SQL Server, PostgreSQL, T-SQL, PL/pgSQL, TiDB · AWS SCT/DMS, Babelfish, pgloader · Query Store, Extended Events, pg_stat_statements · Liquibase, Flyway, Azure DevOps
