Change Management and Deployment
.Prepare Method of Procedure documentation for all database-level remediations that require change advisory board review detailing the fix approach, rollback plan, testing steps, and business impact assessment.
.Coordinate with application teams and platform teams to schedule database remediation deployments within approved change windows, ensuring downstream application connectivity and query performance are validated post-remediation.
.Lead pre-production database remediation testing validating that patches and configuration changes do not break application connectivity, stored procedures, or job scheduling before production deployment.
