- Built Alteryx applications and workflows, such as a workflow that connects to different APIs to get data relevant to our apps, including the number of downloads, active users, and installations.
- Created applications that helped our database administrators to automate their work. For example, Alteryx creates users, grants them privileges, and automatically emails the users with relevant information.
- Developed multiple workflows and applications for ad-hoc analysis, data quality, integration, and database administration.

Database Developer
2013 - 2015
Self-employed
- Used MySQL to store all data about properties in the US with a goal of estimating a value of specific property. My tasks included responsibilities for data quality in each step, such as integration, insertion to dimensional model, and preparation of reports for senior management.
- Built databases for students and small companies including everything from the collection of requirements to the design of solutions up to building a solution in a specific database (MySQL, MS SQL, Postgre).
- Created an integration process for loan reporting; the client had a collection of companies that have provided loan services, and all of them came to the system from which I had to build integration steps to provide insights.
- Used Alteryx to analyze the data, preparing insights and doing data cleanup.
- Provided data analysis for a client that wanted to predict the stock market; my part was to build SQL queries for a specific business use case and stock market items.

Experience
Consumer DNA
Built and optimized Consumer DNA, a solution that is core for digital business in Adidas. The goal of the solution was to create consumer attributes for each consumer so that it is easily accessible and usable by the end systems for website personalization and email marketing. A large percentage of emails sent by Adidas is now triggered by this solution.
DWH for Croatian Tax Authorities
A data warehouse for Croatian tax authorities to detect tax fraud. it was a massive collection of data that is owned by the Croatian government and is very sensitive; I was part of the team that was able to deliver this project within one year.
DWH for Croatian Bureau of Statistics
A warehouse for the Croatian Bureau of Statistics for data integration and analysis of all the relevant data about high school education in Croatia.
Payments Data Integration
Integration of payments data for fraud analysis where the first step was to migrate existing data from SQL Server into Exasol and the second was to connect to the payment service provider and integrate the data on an hourly basis into the same database.
I was brought to Adidas for this. It was a one-man project for eight months, in which I was able to deliver a hyper-automated solution that works even now after two years of operation and optimization without an issue.
