SQL / self-managed clusters, and the operational quality of a mature managed database.<br><br>You'll work across the stack: control plane and lifecycle automation in Go, Postgres internals and performance, migration tooling, and the customer escalations where it actually matters.<br><br>You're welcome to work from our offices in Amsterdam or London, hybrid or remotely from EU
