I've supported MTN since 2010, administering Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB environments while developing database dashboards, health checks, and administrative applications in React, Node.js, and JavaScript.
I lead database implementation and operational support for 75+ critical systems and 300+ development, QA, and UAT environments, including VLDBs from 60TB to 200TB. My work includes Oracle RAC, Data Guard disaster recovery, RMAN and NetBackup backups, GoldenGate replication, container databases, migrations, tuning, partitioning, and automation.
At Barclays Bank, Rand Merchant Bank, and Discovery, I delivered Oracle RAC, Grid Control, E-Business Suite, Data Guard, backup recovery, security, and performance-tuning work. I've also built PL/SQL, Oracle Forms, Java, Unix scripting, and reporting solutions to make DBA teams more effective.
My background began across Oracle development, database administration, and network engineering, and I hold Oracle Certified Professional DBA certifications from 8i through 12c. I bring practical experience maintaining high-availability database platforms, solving production incidents, and improving operational processes.
