What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior technical role where I can improve database performance, strengthen data integrity and security, mentor teams, and contribute to product and infrastructure initiatives within a collaborative, growth-oriented company.

I am an experienced database and web administrator with a strong background in MySQL, Oracle RAC, Linux administration, and web technologies. I have led database performance tuning, replication, backup and recovery, and web server management across enterprise and freelance roles, supporting data warehouses, IT audits, and website operations.

I bring hands-on experience with ASM, RMAN, Data Guard, SQL optimization, and monitoring tools such as Nagios and Cacti, plus front-end skills in HTML/CSS and PHP. I thrive on improving system performance, ensuring data integrity, and training end users while supporting product and development teams as a technical liaison.
