Experience

NAS Migration

This project dealt with legacy hardware. To plan migrations to new hardware, we learned about the impact on the data center level, project criticality, and impacted VMS and users. Once the business decided to pick one application, we had APIs do the rest of the tasks, from a service-now ticketing system (SNOW) to data transfer microservices.

Web Scraping

• Scraped the predefined websites and organized data into models to use by data science teams.
• Provided the options to users to alter inputs to search the websites.
• Scraped all the pages returned by the website.
• Collected required data from a web page and organized the data to use by the data science team with minimal operations.

ICP Capacity Management

For this project, I retrieved data from data centers using Ansible Playbooks. I computed capacities according to the predefined virtual machine (VM) sizes. Also, I provided an API for end-users while requesting a new VM and an admin API to lock capacities for the prescribed time limit.

Analytics Server

As part of a project, we got data from third-party CRM systems and ran analytics algorithms on top of the data to provide reports for sales teams, projected growth, and low-hanging fruit to target the sales pitch.

HGS Analytics

I participated in converting the project into a web application, developing APIs using Django, and converting the algorithm into Celery tasks and Django management commands. Maintaining all system configuration documentation involved collecting, storing, and updating it, as well as developing administrator processes, documenting them, and then training other clients and users to take them over.
