Senior Database Architect, RealTech

Designed and built a database system specifically to quickly and easily import, store and retrieve very disparate MLS (Multiple Listing Service) real estate data sources. This system quickly and easily incorporated new MLS's and quickly searched across all imported MLS's from one unified database. MLS data sources do not adhere to any standards of structure or content. They are as different from one another as snowflakes. This system included an OLTP and OLAP database. Used ERStudio, SQL Server 2005, Transact SQL, SSIS and DTS.

 

Senior Programmer / Database Analyst, CCH

Designed and built two different wizards that imported state, city and local tax rate data into two different ERP systems: Navision and Sage ACCPAC. Also re-designed and built two different tax rate databases. This involved data modeling (ERWin), forward engineering the data model into SQL Server 2005 database, performance tuning, writing ETL, and C#.

 

Senior Programmer / Systems Analyst, N-Link

Designed, developed, tested and debugged a distinct segment of STM (Statement of Work Management System) for the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Used C# and Transact SQL. STM is slated to replace several disparate legacy systems that have never shared data with each other and have outlived their usefulness. The entire STM application is written in object oriented C# with a SQL Server 2000 back-end. Reverse engineered several legacy systems using ERWin 4.1. Also, designed and implemented an ETL (Extract Transform and Load) plan to extract data from several different legacy databases then transform, scrub, merge and load this data into the new STM database structure.

 

Senior Programmer / Systems Analyst, Western Wireless

Implemented all of them using Visual Basic .NET, ASP.Net, Erwin, C# , Transact SQL and SQL Server 2000.

Used ERWIN v3.5.2, Microsoft Front Page v3, and Microsoft SQL Server v7.0. The E-commerce web site and underlying database can be adapted for use by any of these gym-clubs in order to create their own fully customizable E-commerce web site by filling out and submitting the proper administrative web pages.
