I'm going to agree, as a Sr Database Architect, that once you have these skills and some experience under your belt you will never want for jobs.

I mean, sure optimizing SQL queries is important, but I find stuff like sharding, making sure the CPU load doesn't get too high, partitioning, archiving, and scheduling autovaccuum jobs the hardest part about databases. Joins and group bys? Piece of cake in comparison.
