PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Confidential

Technical PM

Responsibilities:

• I Manage a project (capturing requirements, writing stories, grooming backlog, tracking velocity & burndown) that delivers solutions to acquire, store, analyze, aggregate, and cleanse vast amounts of data for the Azure Market Intelligence DataMart using; SQL Server, Azure SQL, Azure Data Lake, Azure Blob Storage, hive, Hadoop, Cosmos etc.
• I worked closely with the Azure Intelligence Business team to capture requirements and understand the goals of the team to help deliver quality data. Business defined roadmap items, I managed delivery of the road map items.
• I also managed a 4 - person DevOps team (performing daily standups, eliminating roadblocks, continuously improving team) to onboard, aggregate and stage data for the business team to consume.
• The business team leveraged this data by searching the sources for new patterns in the development community across cloud platforms in relation to, the use and adoption of OSS.
• Our team also developed a cloud-based web app called MIDORA (Market Intelligence + Dora the Explorer)
• This app has a list of curated queries, organized by data source allowing users to query the data and view results, export results to csv or view with basic data visualizations. In addition, we developed a subscription component allowing the users to create and save query’s and have the results emailed to their email or a DL on a scheduled, reoccurring basis.
• The purpose of this tool is to showcase the data that we have onboarded to the DataMart. Usually this is the first stop for a marketing team looking for data

• Our team designed the Price comparison tool to run on Azure PaaS, with the Web App, the Web services and Azure SQL running in multiple Azure Regions
• The (RESTful) web services were designed and built for the web app to use. However, we also designed it so other teams within Microsoft could consume. This is the one place where Live, up to the hour pricing is stored along with specific Instance Size mapping of Azure to AWS web services. Worked closely with the Azure Market Intelligence team to get access to the hourly collection of Cloud Pricing (Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform and Amazon AWS)

• I was Responsible for all phases of this project
• Captured all the requirements, produced all the requirement specifications, filled and managed backlog in TFS, conducted UAT sessions, and produced all the UI wireframes and mock ups
• This tool was successfully released to production about 5 months after I started capturing the requirements, greatly reducing the time needed to do an accurate price comparison of cloud services.
