  • Proactively monitor performance using tools such as SQL Server Profiler, Extended Events, DMVs, and Performance Monitor.
  • Tune and optimize SQL Server configurations (MAXDOP, cost threshold, memory settings, etc.) based on workload analysis.
  • Perform periodic health checks and provide recommendations for performance improvements across environments.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to support production deployments, resolve performance incidents, and maintain SLAs.
  • Strong working experience in both AWS and Azure Cloud environments
  • Configure instances in the Cloud and monitoring the systems to ensure high levels of performance, availability, and security.
  • Independently analyse, solve, and correct issues in real time providing problem resolution end-to-end.
