What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my technical skills and offers opportunities for leadership and growth.

With over 20 years of experience in the IT industry, I have honed my skills in RDBMS and Oracle PLSQL development, becoming well-acquainted with the software development life cycle. My extensive background includes 16 years in Lottery Game systems, where I have successfully managed projects from requirement gathering to deployment. I pride myself on my ability to understand business expectations and translate them into functional and technical specifications, ensuring that all projects meet the highest standards of quality.

Throughout my career, I have taken on roles that require both technical expertise and leadership. As a Manager of DB Integration & Reporting Analysis at Intralot Inc., I provide technical direction to development teams and ensure compliance with security standards. My experience with Business Intelligence tools like Tableau and SAP Crystal Reports has allowed me to serve as a subject matter expert, delivering actionable insights through data visualization. I am passionate about continuous improvement and actively seek opportunities to enhance existing systems and processes.
