  • Strong understanding of database security, compliance, backup and recovery, and disaster recovery planning.
  • Proven expertise in performance tuning and database optimization.
  • Mandatory Certifications

    • Oracle Certification (OCP or equivalent).
    • Microsoft Certified Database certification (Azure Database Administrator Associate or similar).
  • Cloud Requirements (Must Have)
