We are seeking a Database Engineer to design, develop, and maintain secure database architectures for healthcare SaaS platforms and clinical applications.

In this role, you will design schema layouts, optimize queries, implement indexing strategies, and configure high-availability data replication. You will collaborate with software engineering, Dev Ops, and BI teams to ensure data integrity, privacy, performance, and HIPAA compliance.

• Design schema layouts and data architectures.
• Create normalized tables and implement PHI isolation rules.
• Deploy cloud-managed databases (RDS, Aurora, Cloud SQL).
• Maintain transactional consistency and referential integrity.

• Analyze query execution plans to identify bottlenecks.
• Implement database partitioning and sharding policies.
• Design composite indexes matching filter ordering.
• Optimize slow clinical reporting and dashboard queries.

• Enforce HIPAA and SOC2 compliance controls for data.
• Implement column-level encryption for PHI data.
• Establish fine-grained database access control (RBAC).

• Set up multi-AZ primary/standby DB replication.
• Implement automated failover policies.
• Configure point-in-time recovery (PITR) pipelines.

• Bachelor's in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field.
• Strong experience in database design, scaling, and administration.
• Proficiency in PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL, or Oracle.
• Deep understanding of query tuning and index optimization.
