Expert Database Administrator

Own backup and recovery strategy including routine restore tests and documented RPO/RTO expectations.

Operationalize tooling (e.g., MongoDB Ops Manager or equivalent) for monitoring, automation, and backup where appropriate; standardize agent deployment and backup configuration.

Ensure backup/restore procedures are auditable, repeatable, and transferrable across the team.

Lead advanced troubleshooting: slow queries, index strategy, aggregation pipeline performance, replication lag, storage/IO contention, and resource saturation.

Partner with application teams on document model design, query patterns, and index alignment to prevent collection scans and recurring performance issues.

Create evidence-based capacity plans and right-sizing recommendations (CPU/RAM/disk/IOPS/network) for MongoDB workloads on VMs.

Implement and maintain MongoDB security controls appropriate to self-managed deployments (authentication, authorization/RBAC, TLS/transport security, audit posture).

Drive least-privilege access, credential lifecycle hygiene, and secure operational practices aligned with enterprise security expectations.

Partner with security stakeholders to support hardening baselines, evidence collection, and continuous compliance where required.

Create and maintain runbooks, standards, and operational checklists to reduce key-person risk and enable safe delegation.

Mentor junior ops specialists/admins via structured enablement (pairing, lab walkthroughs, on-call coaching, and knowledge shares).

Provide crisp, customer-ready communications during incidents and major changes; translate deep technical decisions into clear plans.

Complete a current-state assessment (top reliability/security/performance risks; backup validation posture; upgrade/patch cadence; operational gaps).

Publish v1 platform standards (replica set baseline, backup/restore validation cadence, monitoring thresholds, incident/runbook library).

Deliver a 6–12 month roadmap toward automation maturity and sharding value and readiness (prereqs, design decisions, and operational requirements).

Reduced production incidents via systemic fixes, better monitoring, and operational standardization (lower toil, faster MTTR).

Clear, repeatable upgrade and change management motions with reliable rollback plans and stakeholder communications.

A trained support bench: multiple team members can execute routine operations safely using documented procedures.

A validated design and phased plan for sharding/multi-site resiliency, with readiness criteria and operational guardrails.
