    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Worked in the Technology division and worked with Java Spring/PuTTY/Oracle SQL Developer to update and test different adapters. Worked with a migration team to facilitate the migration from a legacy system to an in-house application, and generated 20+ data reports. Continued to test+maintain+update these reports post-development. Worked in a group project using AI/ML techniques to model certain outcomes in different situations.
