About The Role We are building a multi-site platform that orchestrates telecoms services for mobile operators across different regions, with additional network nodes in other regions. As our DBA & Bulk Data Management Engineer you will own every database that underpins this platform from the core BSS/OSS/NOC modules through to the PostgreSQL stores that sit behind our different applications. You will also extend your ownership into the network control layer, maintaining interfaces to vendor-managed databases inside HSS, OCS, PCRF, and SMSC nodes, and ensuring the mediation pipelines that bring network data into the other required system are reliable, complete, and governed by clear data-handling policies. This role spans three disciplines: hands-on database engineering (installation, tuning, backup/restore, high availability), bulk data management (large-scale loads, migrations, exports, purges), and data governance (designing and enforcing retention, archival, and compliance policies). You will be a senior individual contributor and the go-to expert for all database topics across the entire BSS and NOC stack. What You Will Build End-to-end backup, restoration, and disaster-recovery framework for all BSS and network-layer PostgreSQL clusters. Performance optimization roadmap covering index strategies, query tuning, table partitioning, and vacuuming schedules for high-throughput subscription and charging data. Bulk data pipelines for large-scale imports, exports, migrations, and timed purges of subscriber CDRs and event records. Data handling, retention, and archival policies aligned with GDPR, operator SLAs, and internal compliance requirements. Database monitoring dashboards (Prometheus + Grafana exporters) with alerting for replication lag, lock contention, query performance, and disk saturation. Installation and upgrade playbooks for new PostgreSQL instances as the platform scales into additional markets or modules. Cross-platform data integration layer between BSS mediation and network-element databases (HSS, OCS, PCRF, SMSC, PGW). Schema review and data-architecture advisory process for BSS and Workflow engineering teams. Data access control framework: roles, privileges, row-level security, and audit logging across all database tiers. Runbooks and knowledge base covering all database operational procedures, DR playbooks, and incident response steps. Requirements: Must Have Strong hands-on PostgreSQL administration: installation, configuration, replication (logical/streaming), upgrade, and vacuum tuning Proven backup and restore experience: pg_dump, pg_basebackup, WAL archiving, point-in-time recovery, and DR testing Query performance analysis: EXPLAIN/ANALYZE, index design (B-Tree, partial, composite), and schema-level optimisation Bulk data operations: large COPY/INSERT loads, logical replication for live migrations, and automated purge/archival pipelines Data governance: designing and documenting retention, archival, masking, and access-control policies Scripting in Python or Bash for automation of backup jobs, health-check scripts, and bulk-load utilities Experience with containerized database deployments (Docker / Kubernetes) Monitoring: setting up Prometheus postgres_exporter, building Grafana dashboards for database KPIs High-availability patterns: replication failover, connection pooling (PgBouncer / Pgpool), read-replica routing Ability to work independently across multiple concurrent projects in a distributed, async-first team. Multi-datacenter replication and active-passive failover between geographically distributed clusters Strong Advantage Experience with telecoms BSS/OSS platforms (billing, subscription management, or mediation systems) Familiarity with network-element databases: HSS (HLR), OCS, PCRF, SMSC, or PGW data models Data compliance experience (GDPR subscriber data, CDR retention regulations in EU jurisdictions) Nice to Have Exposure to mediation layer data formats (ASN.1, IPDR, Diameter AVPs) Experience with BI or reporting extracts from operational BSS databases About Webbing: Founded in early 2010, Webbing is a global data MVNO that delivers enterprise grade, global connectivity and IoT services across more than 200 countries and 600+ mobile carriers' networks.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
