• Define modern data architecture blueprints, incorporating multi-model strategies (SQL, NoSQL, streaming, unstructured) to support enterprise-scale analytics and applications.
• Architect and deliver event streaming solutions using platforms such as Kafka, Kinesis, enabling real-time ingestion, enrichment, and downstream processing.
• Architect, manage, and optimize SQL Server on AWS (RDS & EC2) with automation around high availability, disaster recovery, backup, and scaling.
• Lead and execute SQL Server to PostgreSQL migration initiatives, ensuring minimal disruption, optimized performance, and cost-efficiency.
• Implement advanced performance tuning, indexing, and workload management strategies across relational data platforms.
• Architect and implement data replication and masking strategies using Delphix, with a strong emphasis on automated provisioning and configuration.
• Provide replication, masking, and virtualization support for Microsoft SQL Server and PostgreSQL environments, ensuring security, compliance, and efficiency in non-production environments.
• Implement Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) practices using Terraform, OpenTofu, or AWS CDK for provisioning and managing data platforms.
• Establish DataOps practices, including CI/CD for data pipelines, automated schema management, continuous testing, and monitoring.
• Proactively identify opportunities for automation across database operations, including provisioning, patching, backups, monitoring, and performance tuning — with a strong focus on automating infrastructure deployment using Terraform or OpenTofu and automating performance analysis and optimization across all database types.
• Build automation frameworks for provisioning, patching, performance optimization, HA/DR, compliance, and security operations.
• Continuously monitor, analyze, and optimize performance across SQL, NoSQL, data warehouses, lakehouses, and streaming platforms.
• Implement security best practices, including encryption, masking, key management, RBAC, and compliance with industry regulations.
• Utilize observability tools (CloudWatch, OTEL, New Relic, or similar) to provide end-to-end monitoring, alerting, and self-healing automation.
• Partner with engineering, InfoSec, and DevOps teams to design scalable, automated, cloud-native data solutions.
• Define and publish standards, patterns, and reusable templates for enterprise data platforms.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to other team members, promoting a culture of automation and best practices for managing diverse database environments, including Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, DynamoDB, and various NoSQL databases, with a strong emphasis on writing and optimizing efficient queries/data access patterns.
