Encompasses all decision-making roles and responsibilities involved with the managing and executing of the required programs and projects in security retentions.
I was responsible for developing and implementing the document security and retention policies for the global document repositiory. This involved interviewing all document owners (over 60 departments) and understanding their requirements and then documenting said requirements. Then making sure the requirements passed auditing requirements. Once this was done I took those requirements and coded them into the application. Then this was tested and once successful this was scheduled and migrated to production. This is/was an ongoing process as new docs were continually imported into the system and new policies were needed.

Mentored new team members.
Authored a decommissioning guide that detailed the decommissioning process for TJX IT. The guide was broken down into 3 sections:
Application only.
Application and Application Server.
Application, Application server, and Database.
The guide also detailed the process to follow to decommission all upstream and downstream integrations. Creating this guide and documentation cut decommissioning time by 50 %.
Was a member of team that performed penetration testing into the document repository as part of Cyber Security testing. This involved members of the security, network and infrastructure teams. I made sure all tasks were documented and completed and that all results were documented up to the correct protocols for audit purposes.

Managed and was the lead tech for the Fiscal Year changeover for the Artemis time tracking / project management system. This involved making sure all IT projects were reviewed on a yearly basis as well as all metadata that was used in the system was correct. Also ensured accuracy and efficiencies as Artemis data directly fed the Chargeout system. (a system which produces IT costs/bills for each banner of TJX)
Managed and was the lead tech for the Fiscal Year changeover for Hyperion Essbase. This involved creating new cubes (databases) each year to ensure Flash sales were ready for any of the banners to retrieve data and use said data to make the best business decisions for each banner. By reviewing / updating the cubes yearly we were able to present data that allowed the most accurate and efficient sales data for decision making.
