• Developed code to migrate complicated provider contract data from Concur systems to S/4 HANA. The migration was so successful that the code was used as the foundation for the Revenue Calculation system.• Product Owner, Architect and Lead Developer for the Revenue Calculation system. o Took over development of the Revenue Calculation system that was originally designed by Finance users; converted the code from MS Access to SQL Server. o Led the project to support IFRS15 requirements, with a cross-department agile team that deployed tickets regularly and completed the project on time for Q1 2018 financial reporting requirements. o Created a very small set of automated unit tests on the Provider Contract and PC Revenue tables. Multiple databases on multiple servers complicated this task. o Analyzed converting the Revenue Calculation system to Azure. It won’t work as currently designed due to the use of multiple databases.• Assisted with the Callidus data migration. I worked with the Enterprise Data Technology team for 2 weeks to learn SAP Data Services. EDT management then requested my assistance with the Callidus migration, reversing the manager’s original skepticism that anyone could learn enough in 2 weeks to add value to a critical project.• Worked on the “Voice to Experience” project, one of the 2019 Hasso Plattner finalists. I wrote Python scripts to manipulate Salesforce conversation data into desired formats, then loaded the data to Microsoft’s Language Understanding model (LUIS) and into Qualtrics.
