Automate provisioning, configuration, health checks, maintenance, backup validation, and reporting with PowerShell, T-SQL, Azure CLI, and infrastructure-as-code practices.

Own P1/P2 incidents, outages, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, vendor escalations, and stakeholder communications.

Maintain standards, runbooks, recovery procedures, dashboards, and knowledge articles; mentor L1/L2 teams and support change and release readiness.
