Professional Synopsis

Citi Group, Warren 02/2013 Till Present

Senior Abinitio Developer, Project Lead

Project: Global Trading Profit and Loss

Module: Data Distribution Interface

Global Trading Profit & Loss system is a multi-entity, multi-currency,

multi-million dollar development of Securities Product Processor for all

Cash positions of Citigroup. The project deals with complete life cycle of

a back office life cycle of a trade from:

- Trade Capture and Profit and Loss calculation.

- Mark to market.

- Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Reporting and Posting to Ledger

- Capability to make adjustments and corrections to the system to

defer any system or application error.

- Downstream feed generation for front to back reconciliation.

The objective is to provide partner systems in finance area for Citigroup

with daily position, account and security feeds based on system defined

SLA. The project was enhanced to have partner systems pull the feed from

GTPL server, thereby reducing significant number of FTP jobs across eight

processing regions.

Responsibilities:

. Implemented the pull architecture for feed consumption by downstream

systems, thereby reducing 100+ jobs in critical window of batch

processing.

. Generic implementations in Abinitio for future changes and

compatibilities with new systems. This is handled mainly by external xfr,

dml files, parameterized graphs and normalization of database

architecture.

. Database driven configurable feed generation for all partner systems.

. Minimum or no software change to create a new feed or to onboard a new

partner system.

. Functioned as key player in business requirements analysis, task

estimations, design document creation, development, integration testing,

status reporting, and monitoring change control and defect management.

. Supported the weekly management of project task planning, delivery

deadline update, and attended weekly defects and release status call with

onshore offshore coordination.

. Database Server Oracle 11g, well supported, feature rich, high

performance/high availability relational database is used for DB

operations.

. Subversion was used for version control and Quality center was used as

defect tracking tool.

. Performed peer design and code reviews to ensure requirements are

correctly implemented and guidelines are met.

. Re-engineered the autosys job scheduling structure there by reducing the

job dependency complexity.

Environment: Abinitio 3.0, Database Server Oracle 11g, Autosys R11, LINUX

Citi Group, Warren 06/2012 - 01/2013

Senior Abinitio Developer, Project Lead

Project: Global Trading Profit and Loss

Module: Basel Reporting and Ledger Posting

The objective of this project was to avoid the manual adjustment by product

controllers arising out of GTPL due to posting forwards trades to ledger

without intercompany delineation and to classify Unrealized Gain or Loss as

asset or liability correctly. Additionally, it was required to minimize the

job runtime in the critical window of EOD batch cycle and thereby maintain

the SLA for the critical feeds for the product controllers.

Responsibilities:

. Implemented the ledger posting of inventory and market value at trade

level to classify the asset and liability at intercompany vs third party

level.

. Implemented the generic dataset to create ledger and Basel 3 feeds. This

helped to resolved reconciliation issues between Dun and Bradstreet

ledger and BASEL reports.

. Coordination with Business analyst in understanding the data from all the

upstream systems and its use in implementing the tests for market

exposure reporting.

. Implementation of functionalities in Abinitio, Oracle DB and Linux

server.

. Effective job scheduling using autosys to minimize the lag, concurrent

runs across regions for same ledger.

. Database configuration including table partitioning and indexing to

stabilize the database.

. Archiving of the unused data for analysis and to improving the

performance of daily batch jobs.

. Reconciliation of daily posting Vs period to date balance and highlight

it in daily wellness report.

Team Lead

Project: Global Trading Profit and Loss

Module: International Settlement Strategy

Responsibilities:

based on customer accounts, thereby reducing the daily trade processing

and settlement volume.

. Developed the system adapter in abinitio to consume the XML trades from

partner systems bridge queue directly, read and parse the XML message,

apply compression filter and product based filter and generate a system

compatible flat file for processing.

. Created a database configuration which would prevent any software change

to consume compressed trades for new set of customers.

. Implemented the configuration based filter logic to consume dark pool

compressed trades in future with no software change.

. Work with business to identify the in scope customers for this migration.

. Understanding and analysis of incoming trade feed so as to continue

consuming gross trades before the cutoff date.

. Interaction with Business users, clients during the application

developments.

. Flow design and implementation of functionalities in ETL, PL SQLs shell

scripts.
