  • Knowledge of cloud database services (e.g., Amazon RDS, Azure SQL, Google Cloud SQL).
  • Scripting experience in Python, Shell, or PowerShell for automation.
  • Experience with monitoring tools (e.g., Prometheus, Nagios, Datadog).
  • Understanding of DevOps and CI/CD integration for database changes.
