Inscribe, Dublin
Inscribe is scaling quickly, and our platform sits at the heart of our customers’ fraud workflows. Every document we analyse and every real-time API decision depends on datastores that are fast, available, and built to grow. We’re hiring a Staff Systems Engineer (Databases) to own how we run, scale, and deploy our databases in the cloud.
This role blends database engineering, site reliability, cloud architecture, and platform automation. You’ll own the reliability and performance of our data layer, from query plans and indexing to replication, failover, backups, and cost. You’ll make sure that as customer volumes and data grow, our datastores stay fast, stable, and cost-efficient.
We’re looking for a high-agency engineer who can assess our data infrastructure today, find what won’t scale, and fix it in line with business goals. This is a hands-on role for someone who thinks in systems, treats databases as a product for other engineers, and raises the bar for data reliability across the company.
We don’t expect candidates to know everything, but experience in most of these areas will help:
