• Implement strict security policies, access controls, and data encryption standards to ensure regulatory compliance. 
• Collaborate with development and DevOps teams to review database schemas, optimize stored procedures, and streamline CI/CD pipelines. 
• Troubleshoot and resolve complex database incidents, providing root-cause analysis and long-term remediation steps. 
• Automate routine administrative tasks, deployments, and maintenance processes using scripting or orchestration tools. 
• Mentor junior database engineers and define technical standards and best practices for the entire data engineering team.
