Integrated Credit Risk Management and Data Automation Solution

An integrated credit risk management and data automation solution that I developed using Microsoft Power Platform, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and enterprise data systems. As the lead developer, I designed and implemented automated workflows, integrated Microsoft Dataverse with an enterprise data lake (EDL) and enterprise data warehouse (EDW), and created Tableau dashboards to deliver actionable insights. This solution streamlined credit underwriting processes, provided real-time risk data visualization, and optimized reporting workflows, enabling more efficient and data-driven decision-making.
