SRE Database Administrator (DBA) (Hybrid)

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Application window close date: 09/27/2026 (maybe not needed? It's metadata; could be folded into short p or drop. Probably drop as minor metadata? It's not a heading. Could include in a short p at top? The instruction: "Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it." So we can include a short p with that date maybe. - Hybrid work schedule: two day per week on-site at Cisco's RTP, North Carolina or Austin, Texas office. That's schedule info. - "Meet the Team" paragraph: description of team. - "Your Impact": list of responsibilities (many sentences). Could be turned into

• items. - Minimum Qualifications: list bullet-like but actually sentences separated by line breaks? We'll turn into
  • . - Preferred Qualifications: similar. - "Why Cisco?" paragraph: could be About the role? Actually "Why Cisco?" is company description; could be part of About the role or separate? The instruction: use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content. We have: - About the role: could include "Meet the Team" and maybe "Why Cisco?"? Actually "About the role" likely describes the role/team. We'll put the team description there. - Responsibilities: the "Your Impact" section. - Requirements: Minimum Qualifications. - Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications? Or we could combine Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says separate headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what goes where. We have Minimum Qualifications (required) and Preferred Qualifications (preferred). Could treat Minimum as Requirements, Preferred as Qualifications. Skills maybe from Preferred? Could also extract skills like Python, CI/CD, etc. But we already have them in qualifications. Might be better to put skills under Skills heading: list of technical skills (e.g., cloud databases, Vector DBs, AI frameworks, CI/CD, Python, etc). However we must not invent or summarize away detail. We can list the skills explicitly mentioned. Let's extract skills: From Minimum Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field (education) - 7+ years technical expertise with cloud databases - experience with Vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus) and/or at least two of: PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB - Experience with AI frameworks (OpenAI API, Langchain, etc) - Experience with designing, administering, maintaining Vector DB or Cloud DB architecture (provisioning, upgrades, operations, backups, security, performance) - Experience with CI/CD framework and tools like Git/Github, Jenkins - Experience with automating DB tasks using Python, Database Lifecycle Management Preferred Qualifications: - Experience with public cloud like AWS, GCP, Azure, or container technologies like Kubernetes and Openshift - Backend experience with Python or other programming skills - Demonstrated experience in building scalable databases on hybrid cloud infrastructure Thus skills: cloud databases, Vector DBs (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus), PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, AI frameworks (OpenAI API, Langchain), CI/CD (Git/Github, Jenkins), Python, Database Lifecycle Management, public cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure), container tech (Kubernetes, Openshift), backend programming, hybrid cloud DB scaling. We can list them. Benefits: The posting includes benefits description under "Why Cisco?" Actually after "Why Cisco?" there is a paragraph about Cisco, then "Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada:" includes salary range and benefits description: medical, dental, vision, 401(k) with match, paid parental leave, short/long-term disability, basic life insurance, restricted stock units, paid time away details (holidays, birthday, wellness, sick time, volunteer days, bonuses). That's benefits. So we need a Benefits section with that info. Pay: Salary range: $139,300.00 to $203,600.00 (starting salary range). Also location-specific ranges: New York City Metro Area $167,700 - $282,000; Non-Metro New York State & Washington State $149,100 - $250,900. Also mention that full salary ranges for certain locations listed below. So we have pay info. Schedule: hybrid work schedule with two days per week on-site at Cisco's RTP, NC or Austin, TX office. Thus we have sections: About the role (team description), Responsibilities (Your Impact), Requirements (Minimum Qualifications), Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications), Skills (list of skills), Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not emit empty sections. All have content. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. We removed. We must not repeat job title. We must not include navigation etc. We must output only HTML fragment. Let's craft. Start with maybe a p for application close date? Could include as minor metadata. We'll include a short p: "

    Application window closes: September 27, 2026.

    " (format date). Then sections. Use

    for each heading. Inside sections: For prose use

    . For lists use

    • . Let's draft About the role: combine "Meet the Team" paragraph and maybe also the first sentence about team building next-gen NoSQL and Vector Databases. Actually "Meet the Team" includes that. We'll put that as prose. Responsibilities: take the "Your Impact" paragraph and break into bullet points. We need to preserve all substantive information; we can split sentences into list items. Let's list responsibilities: - Ensure production services are scalable, resilient, high-performing, and secure. - Support uptime through an On-Call rotation, monitoring, and alerting to meet SLOs and SLAs. - Strengthen reliability by conducting Disaster Recovery drills and managing incidents—investigating root causes, applying remediation, and driving continuous improvement. - Define reliability and security requirements for systems and components to meet company, customer, and regulatory objectives. - Enhance operational efficiency by automating repetitive tasks and mitigating failure points. - Develop tools and techniques for early detection of issues in products, packaging, processes, and product reliability. - Serve as an experienced professional resource, independently applying best practices and business knowledge to improve products or services while guiding and supporting less experienced colleagues. - Understand project and/or department needs and establish relationships with appropriate cross-functional partners to gather input, collect information, and complete work steps. - Design and deploy small to mid-size or moderately complex solutions to optimize reliability, availability, latency, and performance. - Build automated platforms and apply design, deployment, and coding expertise to enhance reliability, scalability, and velocity; design and test high availability and disaster recovery measures across regions and customers. - Forecast and build reports to determine at what point resources will be at capacity. - Design and implement tools to monitor and provide transparency into the performance and reliability of infrastructure; collaborate with Developers and Ops to identify issues, serve as on-call SRE, and lead post mortems and root cause analyses. - Build and ensure security controls are in place in architectural design; collaborate with security in designing or reviewing security controls, and may actively contribute in security incident response. That's many items. Requirements (Minimum Qualifications): list each bullet. - Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field - 7+ years of technical expertise with cloud databases - Experience with Vector databases (such as Pinecone, Weaviate, or Milvus) and/or with at least two of the following: PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MongoDB - Experience with AI frameworks (OpenAI API, Langchain, etc) - Experience with designing, administering, and maintaining Vector DB or Cloud DB architecture, including provisioning, upgrades, operations, backups, security, and performance - Experience with CI/CD framework and tools like Git/Github, Jenkins - Experience with automating DB tasks using Python, Database Lifecycle Management Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications): - Experience with public cloud like AWS, GCP, or Azure, or container technologies like Kubernetes and Openshift - Backend experience with Python or other programming skills - Demonstrated experience in building scalable databases on hybrid cloud infrastructure Skills: we can list distinct skills. Let's compile a list: - Cloud databases - Vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate, Milvus) - PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB - AI frameworks (OpenAI API, Langchain) - CI/CD (Git/Github, Jenkins) - Python programming - Database Lifecycle Management - Public cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) - Container technologies (Kubernetes, Openshift) - Backend programming (Python or other) - Hybrid cloud database scaling We could also include "Designing, administering, maintaining Vector DB or Cloud DB architecture" but that's more responsibility. We'll output as
      • . Benefits: need to capture all benefits info from the paragraph after "Message to applicants applying to work in the U.S. and/or Canada:" up to before "The applicable full salary ranges for this position, by specific state, are listed below:" Actually that paragraph includes benefits and also mentions salary range. We'll separate pay.
