Technopark in Thiruvananthapuram's Kazhakkoottam area has a Senior PostgreSQL Administrator opening, full time, on site, with a team responsible for database reliability across production systems. Seven years of experience is the expectation, and the team wants someone who has genuinely administered production databases, not just designed schemas in a development environment.
The work covers designing and maintaining database structures, optimizing queries for performance, managing backups and data security, and monitoring systems for reliability. A senior administrator here owns replication and failover configuration, which means a mistake here can mean real data loss risk, not just a slow query.
A bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with practical experience administering production database systems and a strong command of database design, query optimization, and backup and recovery procedures.
Experience with a specific PostgreSQL extension for performance monitoring, familiarity with high-availability failover setups, and any background where a backup restoration actually had to be tested under real pressure, not just verified in a routine drill.
Technopark is one of Kerala's largest and most established tech parks, and this team's databases support production systems where downtime carries real, measurable cost. Naukri Mitra has listed a few database roles from this employer, and senior administrators who've joined recently describe the backup verification discipline here as unusually rigorous, a deliberate response to a near-miss data loss incident a few years back that reshaped how seriously the team treats routine backup testing.
Interviews include a technical round on PostgreSQL administration and a scenario discussion about diagnosing a replication lag issue. Candidates who describe a methodical diagnostic process tend to interview well.
This role is based at Technopark, Kazhakkoottam, Thiruvananthapuram, pin code 695582, five days a week on site. Pay runs up to ₹1,24,000 a month. The team hopes to fill this seat within six weeks.
