  • Implemented slowly changing dimensions Type 1, and Type 2 methodology for accessing the full history of accounts and transaction information.
  • Provided data loading, monitoring, system support and general trouble shooting necessary for all the workflows involved in the application during its production support phase.
  • Provided production support by monitoring the processes running daily.
  • Created, optimized, reviewed, and executed SQL test queries to validate transformation rules used in source to target mappings/source views, and to verify data in target tables.
  • Taken part of Informaticaadministration. Migrated development mappings as well as hot fixes them in production environment.
  • Used Informatica scheduling for defining, scheduling, monitoring the jobs
