Business Reporting Developer* I transform data with the aim of extracting useful
information and facilitating conclusions. My tasks include:
SQL Queries: I write SQL queries to pull data based upon a comprehensive set of business
requirements. Examples include reports for:
Marketing to ensure compliance with FCC notification requirements; to identify groups
of customers who can be targeted for additional/upgraded services.
Engineering to pinpoint customer location and service demand within the network; to aid
in inventory cleanup.
Finance to detect revenue assurance issues; to quantify losses due to discounts.
Quality Control to audit orders entered by customer service representatives; to verify
new houses built by the serviceability group.
Macros: I write Windows PowerShell scripts & DOS batch files in order to automate
processes. Previously, I also wrote Visual Basic macros to automate mass changes using
Attachmate Extra.
Reporting Server**: I designed, implemented, and supported a Microsoft SQL Server for
enterprise and local reporting. This included SSIS ETL, user-defined functions & stored
procedures, tables, SQL queries, and SSRS reports. During initial launch, I also aided in
security and server configuration. Regular users utilized SSRS to generate their own
reports from user-entered parameters. Power users could query the back-end directly.
Reports in SSRS included commissions, sales, homes passed & penetration, street sheets,
and technical operations metrics.

which included defining the scope, developing a step-by-step plan, executing the plan, and
communicating & coordinating with other departments as necessary. Projects I managed
included data cleanup, data reconciliation, quality control, and revenue assurance.
Case-Based Support: I provided troubleshooting and support on a case-by-case basis for
personnel having difficulty operating the any of the CSG software. Personnel I supported
included customer service representatives, leads, & supervisors; dispatchers; field,
warehouse, & headed technicians; front-counter representatives; and local office managers.
Billing System Configuration: From time-to-time, I was tasked with changing configuration
parameters, including service codes, rates, packages, discounts, taxes, prerequisites rule
sets, provisioning of addressable services & equipment, and securities. Examples include
projects where I increased rates, launched new equipment, and launched new services.
