What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, challenges in database management, and a collaborative team environment.

I am a dedicated Database Administrator with over 5 years of experience in managing and optimizing databases, particularly in PostgreSQL and MySQL environments. My expertise includes working with AWS RDS, Aurora Clusters, and various database versions, ensuring high availability and performance. I thrive in both team and individual settings, always aiming to enhance my skills and contribute to organizational success.

Throughout my career, I have successfully configured database instances, designed user roles and privileges, and implemented proactive monitoring strategies to minimize downtime. My hands-on experience with database automation, performance tuning, and shell scripting has enabled me to deliver efficient solutions and maintain optimal database health. I am passionate about leveraging technology to drive business outcomes and am always eager to learn and adapt to new challenges.
