Senior SQL Server Database Administrator driving performance, availability, and secure cloud migrations.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior SQL Server Database Administrator with 7+ years of experience designing, implementing, and optimizing SQL Server solutions across on-premises, hybrid, and Azure cloud environments. I have led migrations from legacy systems to modern and cloud platforms, improved query performance by 40%, and reduced downtime by 30% while building secure, highly available database infrastructures.
I serve as a technical lead and escalation point for complex issues, automate DBA processes with PowerShell and scripting, and mentor team members. I excel in HA/DR (AlwaysOn, log shipping, clustering), performance tuning, backup/recovery, and cross-platform support including PostgreSQL and CosmosDB, and I consistently align database operations with change management and governance requirements.
