What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills and offers opportunities for growth in database technologies.

I am a seasoned Database Developer with over a decade of experience specializing in PostgreSQL. My expertise lies in designing, implementing, and optimizing database solutions tailored to meet complex business requirements. I excel in database performance tuning, query optimization, and ensuring high availability of data services. My proficiency extends to integrating PostgreSQL with enterprise applications and managing large-scale data migrations and ETL processes.

In my current role as a Senior Database Administrator at Accenture, I manage and optimize PostgreSQL databases, ensuring peak performance and reliability. I play a pivotal role in troubleshooting, backups, migrations, and scaling solutions to meet evolving company needs. My collaborative approach allows me to work effectively with cross-functional teams, ensuring timely resolution of database-related issues and maintaining operational excellence.

Previously, I served as a Database Systems Architect at Navisite, where I led database migrations and upgrades, optimized application queries, and implemented automated backup strategies. My experience at Capegemini further solidified my skills in managing production databases, ensuring data integrity, and minimizing downtime through effective backup and recovery strategies. I am committed to leveraging my extensive knowledge to drive impactful database solutions.
