Senior Database Administrator and Cloud Data Engineer delivering secure, scalable data platforms.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Database Administrator and Cloud Data Engineer with over 11 years of experience architecting, automating, and securing Oracle, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server ecosystems across AWS and hybrid infrastructures.
I have delivered high-availability and resilient architectures—implementing Oracle RAC, Data Guard, GoldenGate, Aurora, and cross-region replication—to achieve four-nines uptime and RPO/RTO under 10 minutes for critical systems.
My work emphasizes automation and DevOps integration using Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, Jenkins, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines, which reduced manual operations by 70% and accelerated delivery by 40% while improving performance and lowering CPU utilization.
I prioritize security and compliance (NIST RMF, FedRAMP, CIS Benchmarks, SOX, HIPAA), author SOPs and runbooks, mentor junior engineers, and build ETL and analytics pipelines to enable near-real-time reporting and cost-optimized cloud operations.
