MySQL DBA

Location - Wokingham (Hybrid working)

Salary - £75,000 + Bonus, pension, healthcare, life assurance, 25 days holiday

Large Sharded Databases | High Scale SaaS Platform

I’m supporting a growing UK health tech organisation that is scaling a next generation clinical platform into a fully modern SaaS solution used 24/7 across the NHS. They are looking for a Senior MySQL DBA who loves solving performance challenges at scale and has deep experience working with large sharded MySQL environments.

If you’re a MySQL DBA who gets excited about high volume, high availability systems this is a role where your technical expertise genuinely makes a difference.

The core requirement (what really matters)

This role is all about two things:
Expert level MySQL experience
tuning, replication, scaling, performance engineering.
Hands on experience managing large sharded databases
understanding shard allocation, scatter/gather queries, and distributed performance.
If you bring those two skills, you’ll be a standout candidate.
Everything else is a bonus.

What you’ll be doing

• Owning the performance and reliability of large sharded MySQL databases in production.
• Monitoring shard allocation, query behaviour, MySQL replication and overall DB health.
• Ensuring high availability through zero downtime patching and robust DR processes.
• Overseeing Prometheus/Grafana monitoring, alerting and dashboard optimisation.
• Supporting data migrations, including PMI and patient data into the SaaS environment.
• Providing performance insights across release cycles and improving infrastructure efficiency.
• Acting as the senior MySQL DBA voice within a highly technical engineering team.

What you need to bring
Must have (core):

• Strong background as a MySQL DBA.
• Real world experience working with sharded MySQL databases.
• Solid MySQL tuning and replication knowledge.
• Experience working within Linux environments.
• Good understanding of monitoring (Prometheus/Grafana).

Nice to have (not essential):

• Vitess familiarity
• Kubernetes, Terraform, Helm or ArgoCD experience
• Elasticsearch or Graylog exposure

These are all plus points, not prerequisites.

Who this suits

A MySQL DBA who wants to work with serious scale, distributed systems and a modern engineering stack while contributing to technology that directly supports frontline healthcare.
