In this role I am working to expand our use of technology and helping to make others more efficient, I do this by exploring new ways to solve problems and document the process so others can learn and leverage them. I helped to create new process documentation for the ETL portion of Data Publication, EDC scanning set up and monitoring and Control‐m Application Integrator. This allows teammates to complete the same task in a repeatable process.Working with our third-party partners we created a code quality tool. This will automate steps that are currently completed manually and provide better results to make sure our development standards are followed. We can use this to help understand areas that we need to focus more time on during onboarding and training. Checking over 200 standards and providing feedback minutes will drive faster development times and more supportable code. I am often asked to investigate projects that are having difficulties and evaluate how to get them back on track. I use my ability to look at complex scenarios and break them down into smaller components, always staying focused on how to deliver value. I am constantly working with developers, business partners, project managers, solution architects, directors, and executives to help bridge the gap and create clarity to the audience, I tailor my message to the audience at the right level to make sure each group get the details they need to make the right decisions. OneAmerica continues to transform, we must improve our code deployment process and think of more ways to automate, I am exploring ways to accomplish this with our ETL deployment and enterprise scheduling. In order for me to better partner with our Data and Analytics team and to promote solving problems differently I must continue to grow my skills. This year my educational goals include getting my CDMP Certification, Azure Fundamentals Certification, and Informatica Master Data Management Beginner Certification.

As I leader of people my focus has been on expanding people roles and helping them reach their full potential. Thirty Percent of my team moved into larger roles from my team within 18 months. 2 have become solution architects and one became a practice lead.I put on two training classes that focused on my team’s technology, Informatica power center. Classes were held for business analyst and our software quality testers. I focused these 2 training classes on those groups because I wanted to help them better understanding our team’s technology. This helps the entire team speak the same language from requirements through testing.Using my technical knowledge and skills I Improved data delivery times of a sales DataMart load. I sought clarity to understand the business impact, then I created a plan to incrementally fix the performance of the daily cycle. I improved the data delivery by six hours over the course of 4 months.I expanded our team to help meet business demands on our area. I was responsible for onboarding and managing our new team of 30 contractors in addition to my 12 full time employees. We initially brought in group to focus on data deliver, I helped with the data intake process that was used to create the capability of our data engine team. This team of developers and testers worked independently to turn requirements into usable and shareable data. They improve our test coverage and drove down defects with an implementation process they smoke tested all changes prior to the next scheduled load.

While leading of a team of Informatica developers, I implemented agile scrum techniques to help this new team with work intake, prioritization and assignments tracking.I collaborate with other program and projects teams to help understand their integration requirements, refine requirements, and allocate the appropriate resource to deliver a solution. Provide production level support of data warehouse and datamart loading and other ETL related jobs. Work to determine the root cause and provide solutions to prevent failures in the future. I am continually making performance improvements that help shorten the cycle time.Created automation tasks to help with data loading. Reduced the amount of time developers had to spend executing and monitoring jobs in the development environment.

IT Leader of a diverse Informatica team that included local and remote full time employees as well as onshore and offshore contractors. I was responsible for employee reviews, coaching and helping employees create a career development plan. I built a new team which included interviewing, selecting, training and integrating them within our existing development teams.Coordinate with external and internal auditors to provide necessary documentation which help them complete their audits. Create remediation plans from the audit findings if needed and execute plan to close any gaps.Developed long term IT simplification strategy and lead team to execute. Plan included consolidation of 2 Database platforms down to 1, elimination of 4 servers, simplification or elimination of 9 applications and introduction of new OCR technology to increase accuracy and productivity of our imaging process.I independently created an infrastructure proposal to reduce the IT budget. I proposed the plan to upper management and executed. This project had a hard dollar savings of ~$170,000 per year. This was a 20% reduction in the IT server budget cost year over year.• I partnered with business stakeholders to develop and execute comprehensive plans to enhance end user productivity and streamline existing processes. These plans are continually evolving to represent our stakeholder’s current needs. One change allowed for increased turnaround time, previous time took from 2-4 hours per client billing, the current process takes less than 5 minutes and has reduced the number of people needed to perform these tasks from 3 to 1.Work within IT organization to improve current applications. A recent technical change has reduced the amount of code to support by 80%. Increased re-usability so all translations are performed with a single set of code and increased throughput from 480 rows/second to 2,894 rows/second , all resulting in an enhanced end user experience
