Job Description

Nordstrom’s Database Platform Services team keeps the data infrastructure powering our business running — Oracle, MSSQL, and PostgreSQL at enterprise scale — while actively building the cloud-native database platform that will define the next decade. We’re looking for a Senior Cloud Database Engineer who brings AWS as their primary strength and genuine Oracle and MSSQL operational depth as a non-negotiable foundation. This is not a pure cloud role. You’ll be the AWS subject matter expert on a team of seasoned DBAs, leading our cloud database platform buildout on RDS, Aurora PostgreSQL, and Aurora DSQL while also owning production responsibility for mission-critical Oracle and MSSQL systems through an active migration period. You’ll establish AWS standards from the ground up, mentor experienced engineers expanding into cloud-native practices, and carry accountability across both worlds.

Job Responsibility

  • Architect, deploy, and operate AWS database services with primary focus on RDS (Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL), Aurora PostgreSQL, and Aurora DSQL
  • Define enterprise-grade standards, governance frameworks, and deployment patterns for AWS database services at Nordstrom
  • Design backup, HA, and disaster recovery strategies meeting SLA and compliance requirements on AWS
  • Develop and own Terraform infrastructure-as-code for cloud database provisioning, parameter management, networking, and lifecycle automation
  • Lead knowledge transfer — run hands-on workshops, write runbooks, and actively mentor DPS engineers expanding into AWS cloud-native practices
  • Evaluate the broader AWS database services ecosystem (ElastiCache, DMS/SCT, DynamoDB, Redshift, and others) and guide adoption decisions
  • Monitor and optimize performance using CloudWatch, Performance Insights, and related AWS observability tooling
  • Support Oracle 19c/21c on-premises fleet: patching cadences, OEM management, AWR/statspack analysis, RAC/ASM operations, and performance diagnostics
  • Manage MSSQL Server environments: HA/AG, backup strategy, performance tuning, security hardening, and P1 incident ownership
  • Operate GoldenGate CDC pipelines including Extract/Replicat configuration, OCI GoldenGate managed service, and GG4BD delivery to Confluent Cloud Kafka
  • Participate in on-call rotation and lead P1/P2 incident response across AWS and on-premises platforms
  • Partner with application teams on schema change management, query optimization, and database architecture reviews

Requirements

  • 7+ years of database engineering experience with at least 3 years of AWS cloud database operations carrying production accountability
  • Deep AWS expertise with hands-on production experience in RDS, Aurora PostgreSQL, and Aurora DSQL: parameter tuning, HA topology, failover, and replication
  • Solid Oracle DBA skills at enterprise scale: 19c/21c administration, fleet patching, OEM, ASM, AWR/statspack, and performance diagnostics. Production-depth required, not incidental exposure
  • Operational MSSQL Server depth: HA/AG, T-SQL, backup/recovery, performance tuning, and independent P1 incident ownership
  • Production Terraform for real infrastructure — state management, module design, and plan/apply discipline
  • Proven ability to establish cloud database standards and best practices in an enterprise environment
  • Experience enabling a team through a technology transition: training, runbooks, workshops, or hands-on mentorship
  • Production GoldenGate CDC experience: Extract/Replicat configuration, trail file management, GG4BD, and bounded recovery. DMS or equivalent CDC experience considered
  • AWS Database Specialty or Solutions Architect Professional certification
  • Experience with DMS and SCT for Oracle or MSSQL to Aurora PostgreSQL migrations
  • AWS observability tooling: CloudWatch, Performance Insights, RDS Enhanced Monitoring, or equivalent
  • CI/CD pipeline integration for database deployments

Nice to have

  • Broader AWS database services: ElastiCache (Redis/Memcached), DynamoDB, Redshift, Neptune
  • AWS data ecosystem familiarity: S3, Glue, Athena, Kinesis, Lake Formation
  • OCI experience or certifications

What we offer

  • Medical/Vision, Dental, Retirement and Paid Time Away
  • Life Insurance and Disability
  • Merchandise Discount and EAP Resources
