What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative role where I can manage and optimize database systems, build data pipelines and dashboards, mentor teams, and drive cost- and performance-improving initiatives.

I am a data-driven PostgreSQL Database Administrator and analyst with four years of professional experience across telecom and renewable energy sectors. I combine a background in statistics with hands-on database engineering to turn complex datasets into actionable business insights.

I have led PostgreSQL implementations, managed on-prem and cloud environments, and automated provisioning and backup strategies using tools like Terraform, pgBackRest, and Commvault. My work has reduced deployment time and lowered costs through instance-size optimization and performance tuning.

On the infrastructure side I deploy and maintain Postgres on Kubernetes and VMs, enforce container and access security, and run disaster recovery drills to ensure high availability. I also mentor junior DBAs and document operational best practices to strengthen team capabilities.

I am proficient with SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL), Python, Power BI, Tableau, Excel, Docker, Airflow, and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure). I bring strong communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills to deliver measurable improvements in cost, uptime, and operational efficiency.
