CASSANDRA DBA (ONLY W2 ROLE)

Role: Cassandra DBA (ONLY W2)

12+ months

Location: 100% Remote

Project:

• This team owns a data platform that communicates with Clients  online banking & exposes data like account balances, credit card balances, etc. This is business critical data/functionality, so any changes to the applications/configurations need to be done in a way that can maintain operations and limit disruption to users
• There is an audit of their platform going on that is uncovering some security risks that need to be addressed within the Cassandra DB
• Additionally, they are migrating from on-prem to Azure – planning to have this complete by Q2 of 2026. Also considering migrating to Yugabyte

Responsibilities:

• Taking requirements from the audit team as to what changes need to be made within the database & update configurations accordingly
• Ensure that all new functionality within the DB meets the updated requirements based on the audit results
• Configure & enable SSL and LDAP
• Observability/monitoring alerts using Prometheus & Grafana
• Performance tuning, backup/recovery, troubleshooting, etc.

Must Haves:

• Cassandra expertise – they do not have much Cassandra knowledge on the team, need someone who is able to identify gaps in the platform and provide recommendations for solutions
• Only need DBA as the data modeling & database development is complete, but any Cassandra development experience would be a plus
• Ansible & AWX – all operational pipelines will be on Ansible with AWX
• Knowledge of Jenkins pipelines and Terraform for IaC for automating DB deployments, automating cluster set up, etc.

What Will Win:

• GitLab CI
• Python
• Financial services experience – especially experience with audits
