Hire senior PostgreSQL engineers
PostgreSQL is the quiet default of the industry. Our seniors run it where it matters: replication topologies, query tuning with real plans, partitioning at scale, and migrations that do not wake anyone up.

How we vet
What senior PostgreSQL actually looks like
Query optimization reading EXPLAIN plans, not guessing indexes
Replication and high availability: streaming replication, Patroni, managed RDS or Cloud SQL
Table partitioning, vacuum tuning, and bloat management at scale
Safe migrations: logical replication, pglogical, and zero-downtime cutovers
The roles that master PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL questions, answered
What does senior PostgreSQL knowledge look like?
Reading EXPLAIN ANALYZE fluently, knowing when partitioning beats indexes, and keeping autovacuum healthy before it becomes an incident.
Managed or self-hosted Postgres?
Seniors usually recommend RDS or Cloud SQL unless there is a hard compliance reason, and they know exactly what managed services do not cover.
Can they handle a Postgres to warehouse pipeline?
Yes. CDC from Postgres via Debezium or Fivetran into Snowflake or BigQuery is a daily pattern for our data engineers.
