Company mission
Trulioo's mission is to be the identity platform that global businesses turn to for growth, innovation and compliance.
Role
Who you are
- 3+ years of database engineering or datastore reliability engineering experience
- Strong hands-on experience managing and optimizing relational databases (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases (e.g., DynamoDB, Redis)
- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation) to automate provisioning and configuration of database resources in the cloud
- Proficiency with monitoring tools like CloudWatch, Prometheus, Grafana
- Experience with scripting and automation (e.g., Python, Bash, Go) to streamline database management tasks
Desirable
- Experience managing AWS-native databases like RDS, Aurora, DynamoDB, or Redshift
- Experience with multi-region database configurations and data replication strategies for low-latency access across geographies
- Familiarity with data analytics or ETL pipelines that interface with databases for data processing and analytics
- Experience with graph databases like Neo4j, ArangoDb, and Amazon Neptune
What the job involves
- We are seeking an experienced Database Engineer (SRE) to focus on the reliability, availability, and performance of our database infrastructure, with particular emphasis on NoSQL and graph databases
- You’ll play a key role in maintaining and optimizing our cloud database systems to meet the needs of our Trulioo customer base
- We are a 24/7 operation that requires on-call coverage to serve any technical incidents that may arise
- Collaborate with our infrastructure and engineering teams to implement best practices for database management
- Support and debug database production issues across services and levels of the stack
- Manage and optimize document and graph databases (such as AWS DocumentDB, Mongo, Neptune, Neo4j, or others) for performance, scalability, and high availability
- Ensure databases are configured for high availability (HA), replication, and disaster recovery (DR)
- Implement automated backup and restore strategies, and ensure minimal downtime in case of failures
- Manage monitoring and alerting systems for all data storage backends
- Automate database-related processes such as scaling, backups, migrations, and performance tuning to reduce manual intervention and ensure operational efficiency
Our take
Identity fraud is on the rise, anti-money laundering and terrorism financing regulations are tightening, and online identities are becoming harder to track. The ramifications of this for individuals and businesses alike make digital identity verification a challenge that urgently needs to be overcome. The Trulioo team have good reason to think they can do it.
Begun as a Facebook customer identification service, Trulioo has grown to become a comprehensive identity verification platform. It allows customers to ID more than 5 billion people across the globe from a single API, even according to different regional specifications, without relying on conventional information like credit history or bank account details. This remarkable feat has won Trulioo Unicorn status, and with more companies going global it’s likely to see it continue netting substantial enterprise clients.
There’s another crucial reason why this matters: economic activity is increasingly moving online, potentially freezing out people without the digital identities normally required to engage with it. Trulioo’s platform offers a truly global solution, for all parties, and it is well positioned to succeed within this space.
