Postgres Engineer (AMER)

We’re looking for a Senior Postgres Engineer to join our Postgres Team and help maintain and expand the stability and functionality of our hosted Postgres offering . You’ll work closely with customers, partners, product, engineering, support and success, helping us maintain a secure, stable, performant, and functional Postgres foundation.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in async, fast-paced environments and is excited about building developer tools that scale to millions.

This role also requires strong working overlap with Americas time zones due to production support and on-call responsibilities.

What you'll own:

• Build and maintain PostgreSQL extensions in C and Rust, with a deep understanding of internals — parser, planner, WAL mechanics, and MVCC
• Diagnose and resolve issues in managed PostgreSQL deployments, including custom extension failures, core dump analysis, and performance bottlenecks
• Own idempotent deployment pipelines across thousands of running PostgreSQL instances, including testing and rollout strategies
• Manage complex extension ecosystems — compatibility, upgrade paths, and conflict resolution
• Work with PostgreSQL's background worker framework, shared memory management, and hook system to build reliable, scalable functionality
• Collaborate closely with customers, partners, product, engineering, support, and success teams to maintain a secure, stable, and performant Postgres foundation
