Manage a team of engineers are responsible for migrating from a collocated, Oracle-based Data Warehouse to a cloud-based, real time data ingestion system hosted on AWS. Data is modeled and stored to be used for automated analytics, ad-hoc reporting, and predictive alerting. The new infrastructure runs for a fraction of the cost of the Oracle-based implementation and allows the business to scale linearly as their business grows.

Work with several clients (Including Rockstar Games and Accudyne Industries) on their data warehousing needs, using tools ranging from Hadoop to SQL Server.

Design and implement of a new data platform using Java (Spring, Camel) and AWS (S3, EC2, Redshift, EMR Spark, RDS) that maintains a production data warehouse and data lake with hourly updates. The legacy implementation was no longer able to keep up with the rate of ingestion and needed to be redesigned. As we built up a new team, we took it upon ourselves to evangelize a culture of testing code and continuous integration/deployment throughout the company.
