I optimize Oracle and PostgreSQL databases on AWS for reliable production systems.

At Global Processing, I administer, support, and optimize Oracle Database 19c on AWS RDS and PostgreSQL on Amazon Aurora across production and non-production environments.

I diagnose performance and availability issues using AWR, execution plans, statistics, indexes, and wait-event analysis. I also automate operational work with SQL, PL/SQL, Oracle Scheduler, and scripting, including migrations, data cleanup, synchronization, and processing.

I collaborate with Development, Infrastructure, Cloud, and DevOps teams on incidents and platform improvements. I'm currently pursuing a Licenciatura in Data Science at the Universidad de Buenos Aires.
