Sr. Systems Analyst

Confidential

Responsibilities:

• Developed and maintained in-house applications using JAVA, J2EE, JDBC, JSF and RMI on UNIX. Code PL/SQL scripts to aid programs in loading data to the database through TOAD or SQL plus.
• Supervised a group of contractual programmers to get the current project into conclusion. This group of programmers writes JAVA code to finish up where we left off from the already laid foundation.
• Resolved the problem where system buckles under load test by making recommendations to change part of the code that retrieves the data. This even resulted to quicker displays and response times by a factor of 10.
• Resolved the problem of how to extract data from a mass report dump from MSPS and then converted into a more usable data to be loaded into ORACLE tables by writing supporting code to parse data that converts to readily loadable file into ICESWEB ORACLE tables. Saved the group a months of manual conversion.
• Enhanced the redesigning of data structures of the system for more efficient architecture. As well as inefficient code to a more efficient code such as parsers or validators cutting down run time processes from hours to minutes (scripts to C code).
• Contributed heavily on resolving on one of the problems in K-Block validation project resulting to quick turnaround of the flow process. Code logic design to parse the file much faster than using UNIX scripts. The logic involved parsing through unformatted switch dumps. No common pattern from one file to the other. Resulted in 2 to 3 times faster processing.
• Designed/developed CIA/WINBACK using ORACLE Forms 9i. Augmented with writing code C/C++ parser as the bridge between raw data source and JAVA applications. Includes writing PL/SQL code to support forms that create, retrieve, and update tables.
• Designed/developed "Trouble and Service Order Management System" (also known as TSOMS). Heavily customized the CRM type AMDOCS CLARIFY to fit specific needs of the business. These includes writing code specifically for each screen, code middleware between platforms, design GUI interface and write low level code to process data.
