Summary
Rui Ribeiro is an experienced Oracle Database Administrator based in Zurich with over two decades in systems and database administration and 11 years of focused enterprise experience. He brings deep expertise across RDBMS platforms (Oracle, Sybase, SQL Server), Unix/Linux systems, networking and data center operations, having supported critical finance and risk systems at major institutions like Credit Suisse. Rui combines hands-on DBA skills—backup/restore, performance tuning, replication and virtualization—with network security and ISP-era know-how (FreeRADIUS, Anycast, DNS/DHCP) that few DBAs in finance possess. He is comfortable in on-call, shift-based environments and in cross-border project delivery, bridging Dev, Ops and global teams. A pragmatic problem-solver, Rui has a track record of building resilient DB infrastructure and operational tooling (Delphix, NetBackup, Control-M) to keep mission-critical services running.
