When hiring a PostgreSQL engineer for your business, you should seek out only the most qualified experts for the job. However, it‘s also crucial for you to take a hands–on approach to the hiring process. It‘s not just about technical skills, but also about finding someone who fits with your company culture. We can help you with that.
As soon as you talk with us or fill our form, the first thing we do is analyze your company. We set up a call with you to understand your culture and the type of people you value working with.
We reach out to hundreds of PostgreSQL developers that we think might be a possible match for you. In 2 weeks, you’ll start reviewing people that match your requirements. We focus on providing you 3-5 top candidates instead of giving you an endless list.
Once you select the candidate, we handle all the contracts and payments from day 1. We also take the legal steps required to protect your IP.
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source relational database management system that offers exceptional scalability, security, and performance. Its usage grew by 46% in 2023, making it one of the fastest-growing database systems. 42% of Fortune 500 companies now use PostgreSQL for critical applications.
Harness the power of world‑class, remote PostgreSQL developers to design, tune, and scale databases that keep applications fast, secure, and always‑on. By pairing deep Postgres expertise with a flexible engagement model, you cut hiring cycles, trim infrastructure costs, and gain 24 × 7 coverage.
The best engineers build future‑proof schemas—normalized for OLTP or star/snowflake for analytics—then harden them with the right mix of B‑tree, GIN, and BRIN indexes plus table partitioning for petabyte‑scale data.. They also configure logical or streaming replication for zero‑downtime releases and automatic fail‑over.. End‑to‑end RDBA services cover security audits, VACUUM/ANALYZE tuning, backup policies, and high‑availability clusters.
Need high‑throughput services or geo‑spatial analytics? A great engineer can craft back‑end code and stored procedures that tap advanced extensions such as PostGIS for location data and TimescaleDB for time‑series workloads. They can optimize complex queries with EXPLAIN ANALYZE, integrate Kafka CDC streams, and expose REST / GraphQL endpoints your front end can consume at sub‑100 ms latency.
Whether you run self‑hosted clusters or managed Aurora PostgreSQL, Cloud SQL, or Azure Database for PostgreSQL, you want experts who can set up Docker/Kubernetes deployments, Terraform IaC, and GitHub Actions pipelines for reproducible builds and one‑click rollbacks. Continuous monitoring through Prometheus / Grafana surfaces slow queries before they impact customers.
Yes, hiring senior database developers is an investment, but not as expensive as loss of performance, security, and downtime. According to Gartner, an average database downtime costs businesses $5,600 per minute, and security breaches from poor database management cost companies an average of $4.35 million (IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2023).
So get past the sticker shock—you need to invest in quality people from the beginning, and we can help you find them. Here;s the top skills you should look for when hiring:
