Database Reliability Engineer (Junior) - HK Hybrid Chief Information Office Your mission We are looking for a motivated Junior Database Reliability Engineer (DBRE) to join our expanding IT Operations team. The successful candidate will be part of a large integral multi-international organization working with an array of No SQL database platforms and applications. You will own the end-to-end lifecycle of No SQL database instances. What You Will Do Lifecycle Management: Own the full lifecycle of No SQL database instances, including provisioning, configuration, upgrades, monitoring, performance tuning, and decommissioning. Provisioning & Deployment: Use Infrastructure-as-Code tools (Terraform, Ansible, Puppet) to provision and manage No SQL clusters in a mixture of containerized (Docker/Kubernetes) and non-containerized environments. Monitoring & Observability: Implement and maintain monitoring dashboards, alerting, and health checks for distributed No SQL clusters to enable proactive incident detection and resolution. Performance Engineering: Profile server resource usage, analyze query and cluster-level performance, identify bottlenecks, and implement data models, indexing strategies, and configuration changes to optimize throughput and latency. Capacity Planning: Plan and model resource requirements based on usage trends, and recommend right-sizing or scaling actions to prevent capacity-related incidents. Incident & Change Management: Follow established change management processes, participate in on-call rotations, and contribute to post-incident reviews to drive long-term reliability improvements. Cross-Data Centre Replication: Support replication and failover configurations across data centres to ensure high availability and disaster recovery. Automation:



Develop and maintain automation scripts (Shell, Python) and tooling to reduce manual operational overhead and improve consistency. Documentation: Prepare clear, well-structured documentation covering database architecture, runbooks, procedures, and operational standards. Collaboration: Work closely with SREs, platform engineers, application teams, and business stakeholders to understand requirements and deliver reliable database services. What you’ll bring 2+ years of experience in IT operations, site reliability, database administration, or a related engineering role. Solid understanding of No SQL databases (e.G., Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Mongo DB) — hands-on experience with at least one of these is expected. Strong Linux administration skills and comfort working in shell-based environments. Experience with Infrastructure-as-Code and configuration management tools (Terraform, Ansible, Puppet). Proficiency in scripting languages (Shell, Python, or Ruby). Familiarity with Docker and/or Kubernetes for containerized database deployments. Basic knowledge of SQL databases (My SQL, Postgre SQL, Oracle, etc.) is a plus. Experience with Git and working in an open-source version control workflow. Working knowledge of *nix system tuning (kernel parameters, filesystem, memory, CPU) is a plus. Strong interpersonal skills, the ability to work in a team, and a proactive problem-solving mindset. Up-to-date knowledge of database reliability best practices and industry standards. Ability to plan and model resource requirements from high-level specifications. Training or certifications in cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP) or No SQL databases is a plus. Able to communicate fluently in written and spoken English. #J-18808-Ljbffr
