PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:

Confidential

Software Developer

• I am responsible for developing Microsoft Access and SQL Server databases and offering ongoing technical systems support for various departments within the bank.
• The front-end is always MS Access, while the back-end is either MS Access or SQL Server. The MS Access databases and Visual Basic applications are always tailor-made. Tasks we see often are data imports from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and comma-delimited or tab-delimited files. Often I need to extract, transform, and load the data to another system, making the an integral part of that other database within the bank. My strong preference however is to read directly from another SQL database, no matter Oracle, Sybase, MySQL SQL Server or any other data source. These imports are also often used to offer reporting that the originating system doesn’t provide. These reports are often needed by management.
• Specific needs are also met, like calculating the bank holidays of a specific year, or applications that send out automated emails while allowing the users to maintain the templates of these emails themselves. As already mentioned, another example form applications that connect to more than one server and database at a time while combining the data from these different SQL sources. In this job I work with different environments simultaneously, often with comparable but different commands and syntax. I participate in system conversions as well. Documentation and version management is also part of the job.

Environment: s: MS Access, Visual Basic, SQL Server, Transact-SQL, T-SQL, Windows 7, MS-DOS scripting, WebEx, Stored Procedures.

Tomea Realty IT Manager / Real Estate Agent

Confidential

• Regarding IT I managed all the PC’s in the office, including installing new and current software and releases. I configured most of the software, upgraded and sometimes downgraded software (i.e. NetDrive and Windows 10), and I tested all changes and installations. For the company cloud I configured the routing of modems and routers. I gave access to those who needed access. I performed the bi-weekly backups and I kept track of all software and hardware documentation and did the record keeping of all company passwords. If there were system malfunctions, I would troubleshoot and resolve them. I did the technical system support for the real estate agents at the office. Where needed I helped agents with Excel spreadsheets like adding formulas and printing labels for envelopes. I maintained the local network including configuring the CISCO Internet modem and the Netgear WiFi router, installing and configuring the Synology Network Drive (the office cloud), I installed surge protection and reconfigured telephones where needed. Out of interest I installed LAMP in a Linux environment and WAMP in a Windows environment with their MySQL databases on my personal computer at home. I explored fedora Linux and Ubuntu Linux.
• Regarding property management I handled the incoming rents, I did the invoicing and accounting, and I was in touch with our clients, the landlords of the properties we managed.

Amsterdam Analyst - Programmer

I developed, tested and maintained a web-based ticket-management system using HTML, JavaScript, MySQL and Perl. The ticketing system was used by the workgroup that handled most of the tickets. I gave and aministrered user access. I designed, modeled, installed, configured and maintained the MySQL database, the Apache webserver and the Perl modules. I did the consultancy and information analysis, did the MySQL database management and was responsible for the performance. Users could generate the required tasks automatically or manually. Priorities of tasks could be readjus­ted, often depending upon customer priorities. The system generated overviews of required tasks, of actions taken per task, etc. etc. Basic access was given to important customers, which included customer support. If the system had malfunctions, I would troubleshoot, isolate and resolve them. This job required intensive interaction with end-users. It ended because of the dot-com crash.

I initiated and managed the required changes. This was a contract job for two years.

Confidential

Utrecht Analyst - Programmer

Confidential offers “just in time delivery” and sends products all over Europe by truck, carrier and air. This was a fast-paced environment that required well-trained staff and stress reliable systems. I did the information consultancy and analysis, the design and data modeling regarding company and user needs. I developed and tested the freight-cost calculating system on HP Unix using Oracle SQL, Oracle Forms, Oracle Reports, Unix scripting and FTP. This involved integration of various systems. I was also the admini­strator of the Oracle SQL database and responsible for the mainte­nance, performance and fine-tuning of the database. I tested and maintained the automated EDI transfer be­tween different computer platforms to download data for shipments and to transfer final shipping-data from the SQL database to a Windows-server. I was the leading person when it came to freight cost calculation, EDI transfers, database fine-tuning and system integration. I was the IT-representative in meetings with the carriers for developing the EDI data migration between them and Confidential . I would troubleshoot, isolate and resolve software malfunctions. I communicated extensively with the end users, which included user support.

CAP Gemini

Sogeti Analyst - Programmer

I was part of several teams developing and testing projects for various clients like Nissan Motor Company, for the Confidential Sogeti headquarter in Paris, for PTT in The Hague, for the System Development Workbench-team of Confidential and for Hoogovens IJmuiden steel industry (now Corus). I did the information analysis, data design and modeling and worked with various database environments like Oracle SQL and Sybase SQL. Some projects were terminal-based, others were client-server. I left Confidential Sogeti because I learned I perform better in one environment / company where I get to know the company and its needs better.

Confidential

Analyst - Programmer

I developed a software-gateway between a telex-computer and the Confidential email network. The gateway allowed emails to be sent as telex messages, which required integration of the telex computer’s functionality into the email network. I developed the specifications, did the data modeling and structuring, wrote the programs and tested the soft­ware. Regarding the telex gateway I was the leading person. Hardware or software malfunctions would often be identified and resolved by me. I communicated with department managers and end users who used our services and I ensured customer satisfaction. To a degree I did system administration and I gave user access. I had the supervision over two emplo­yees. Internally I provided on-site trainings and presentations for end-users. Externally I did presentations at trade shows for Wang computers, their pre-sales phase. The job required intensive interaction with end-users, including user support. I left Confidential because I wanted to expand my experience beyond Wang computers.
