Sr. Database Administrator

About the role

FinQuery stands at the forefront of accounting automation, driven by a deep specialty in contract-driven accounting. Our AI-enabled platform transforms how controllers and finance teams operate, seamlessly managing and accounting for the complex financial contracts-like leases, prepaids, and accruals-that are the backbone of modern business. We are not just a software provider; we are the unified subledger that eliminates time-intensive, error-prone technical accounting workflows, ensuring financial reports are accurate and empowering our customers to focus on strategic, high-value tasks.

FinQuery is the global leader in lease accounting (as recognized on G2.com) and serve more than 8,700 customers worldwide. Our growth trajectory has been consistently validated by the Inc 5000, which has recognized us as one of the fastest-growing private companies for five consecutive years.

We're looking for an experienced Senior Database Administrator to join the team at FinQuery. You should be highly proficient with schema design, indexing, advanced query tuning, and database architecture. Beyond deep technical expertise, we are looking for a seasoned professional with strong mentorship and knowledge-sharing capabilities to elevate the entire engineering team. We also value leaders who integrate AI tools into their daily workflows to drive efficiency. Whether you built those habits through professional experience, technical leadership, or continuous self-study, we'd love to talk.

We run Agile with Kanban, and we believe in continuous improvement in our systems, our tools, and how we work together. In this role, you'll lead hands-on PostgreSQL administration on AWS, solve complex query performance challenges, guide data architecture strategy, and mentor junior and mid-level engineers. You'll collaborate closely with engineering leadership while leveraging AI-driven approaches to optimize workflows and scale infrastructure efficiently.
