Database Administrator · Reliability Engineer

Make data
stay ready.

I design and operate dependable database environments where performance, recoverability and observability are treated as one system. From query plans to failover drills, I turn noisy data infrastructure into calm, measurable operations.

01 / Profile

Operations with
an observability mindset.

My work lives at the intersection of database internals, infrastructure automation and production reliability. I favor repeatable runbooks, useful telemetry and boringly successful recovery tests.

Performance tuning

Execution plans, indexing strategy, lock analysis, connection pooling and workload-aware capacity decisions.

High availability

Replication topologies and controlled failover patterns designed around realistic recovery objectives.

Automation & observability

Runbooks become scripts, scripts become repeatable systems, and metrics make their outcomes visible.

03 / Selected work

Systems that
earned their calm.

Case-study snapshots focused on outcomes, operational thinking and the mechanics behind resilient data platforms.

01 · ZERO-DOWNTIME MIGRATION

Moved a revenue database without moving the business clock.

Designed staged replication, validation gates and a rehearsed cutover path for a multi-terabyte PostgreSQL estate. The migration became a controlled sequence instead of a midnight gamble.

POSTGRESQLCDCCUTOVER
02 · QUERY FORENSICS

Reduced p95 latency by 71%.

Traced lock contention and plan regression to a small set of high-impact workloads.

QUERY PLANSP95
03 · RECOVERY DRILL

Made restore confidence measurable.

Turned backup checks into recurring recovery exercises with evidence, timing and ownership.

PITRDR
04 / Journey

From tickets
to systems thinking.

A DBA career arc centered on production responsibility and progressively broader infrastructure ownership.
