I architect and operate mission-critical database platforms for federal agencies and DoD programs — from multi-cloud modernization at national scale to distributed replication systems on U.S. Navy ships. Currently leading database engineering for the U.S. Treasury's $1.3B T-Cloud program.
Eleven years across federal, DoD, healthcare, telecom, and retail — specializing in cloud database engineering and distributed systems at scale.
Design and operate enterprise database platforms across AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, OCI, and GCP simultaneously — with concurrent production experience on all four through the U.S. Treasury T-Cloud program.
Replication architectures for environments where connectivity is intermittent or denied — including ship-based U.S. Navy systems syncing across afloat and ashore via Kafka and SAP MobiLink.
Migration and modernization of hundreds of Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MongoDB databases across federal agencies — zero data loss, minimal downtime.
Deep-dive query optimization, indexing redesign, execution plan analysis, and wait statistics delivering measurable improvements on mission-critical workloads.
Terraform and Ansible for compliant automated database provisioning. CI/CD pipelines, automated runbooks, and IaC standards at enterprise federal scale.
FedRAMP, FISMA, DoD RMF, and SOX database architecture. RBAC, encryption, audit logging, and security hardening built in from day one.
Production-proven expertise across databases, cloud, automation, ETL, monitoring, and compliance frameworks.
Three capabilities that put me in a very small pool globally.
Active concurrent production experience across AWS GovCloud, Azure Government, OCI, and GCP through the U.S. Treasury T-Cloud program. Cross-cloud tradeoff advisory from real engineering — not vendor documentation.
Active Public Trust and Active DoD Secret clearances held concurrently as a U.S. citizen. Immediate engagement on both civilian agency and military programs with no lead time or delays.
One of very few engineers globally leading the transition from legacy SAP occasionally-connected replication to modern Kafka event-driven architecture in a U.S. Navy maritime environment under denied network conditions.
My federal database consulting firm — available for engagements, subcontracting, and proposal support at both clearance levels.
Active certifications across cloud platforms, infrastructure automation, and federal security.
Open to federal consulting engagements, technical leadership conversations,
and prime contractor subcontracting opportunities.
