CitiBank, Inc 1999 - 2002
Oracle Warehouse Architect, Developer, Administrator + Engineer
Hired by Marketing Department at CitiBank, Inc. to write SAS auditing
scripts to rapidly verify daily Acxiom, Inc. data processing services
vendor. After just three months, tasked by CitiBank management to migrate
all historical data from vendor archives into new in-house Custom Time
Series Data Warehouse. This represented about ten years (2 Petabytes) of
credit card demographics and financial banking data.
Within about six months, I had set up a RedHat Linux Data Warehouse
system with massively parallelized disk io, running Oracle 9i. Migrated all
raw historical data to dedicated local Linux / Oracle Data Warehouse
system. Developed Oracle PL/SQL Tools Confronting Time-Series Warehouse,
REST API, Aggregation Schemes, CSV Exports and Browser Tools. I validated
logical and physical performance requirements to the satisfaction of bank
management and vendor. Automated daily data migrations, plus all daily,
weekly/monthly/quarterly Data Warehouse Analytics reports. Trained many
developers to create consistent and performant tools to leverage historical
trends. Trained IT department staff to manage data warehouse validations,
loads and scripts. Next I was sent to JP Morgan / Chase Manhattan Bank,
another local Acxiom client, where I basically implemented the same in-
house solutions listed above in their Data Processing department. These
successful experiences using RedHat Linux for enterprise data process were
my first steps toward open source platforms and API's.
