  • Maintain detailed, version-controlled documentation for database environments, architecture diagrams, configurations, operational procedures, and runbooks.
  • Generate regular reports on database performance, capacity growth, availability, and usage trends for stakeholders.
  • Collaborate closely with development, infrastructure, cloud, and security teams to streamline deployments and accelerate incident resolution.
  • Mentor junior DBAs and establish operational best practices for AWS database administration, automation, and cloud migration initiatives.
  • Demonstrated success managing enterprise PostgreSQL and MySQL environments in hybrid (on-premises and AWS cloud) infrastructures.
