Data Architect
Current• Developed architectural strategies for data modeling, design, and implementation to meet requirements for metadata management, operational data stores, and data processing environments.• Developed foundational data framework & dashboards enabling insights into the overall health of systems/tools administered and maintained by the Platform Team. Dashboards include critical metrics and KPIs to drive effective content management, efficient administration of all environments, increased sustainability, optimization opportunities, and more accurate forecasting to meet future demands. Dashboard visualizes data covering 2.5 years of historical data, 500,000+ job executions, and 2,000 applications developed by 42 designers. Solution prevented the need to expand server capacity saving $50,000+.• Led project to centralize authentication, authorization, networking, and observability of PostgreSQL database via StrongDM. Rearchitected permission/role structure across 3 AWS RDS databases. Coupled with the deployment of Alteryx Gallery connections eliminated 220 hours yearly across Ops Transformation through process and administration efficiencies.• Led adoption of JIRA within the Platform Team for more efficient workload management, including developer-initiated requests and platform-specific projects. Established integration between Slack and JIRA in a way that can be leveraged by other processes and teams, resulting in faster ticket response/resolution times, more effective knowledge sharing across teams, and the ability to conduct ‘post modem’ reviews to be better positioned in the future.
