  • Convert proprietary file-based data models into efficient relational database designs.
  • Develop ETL, conversion, reconciliation, and validation processes.
  • Ensure data integrity, auditability, and migration accuracy.
  • Optimize high-volume transactional and batch-processing workloads.
• Enterprise Systems Integration
  • Analyze dependencies across applications, libraries, services, utilities, interfaces, and batch jobs.
  • Collaborate with architects, business analysts, infrastructure teams, and application owners.
  • Develop integration solutions that support both legacy and modern environments.
  • Produce technical documentation, architecture diagrams, and migration plans.
• AI-Assisted Development
  • Leverage AI-powered engineering tools to accelerate software delivery.
  • Utilize AI tools for legacy code analysis, reverse engineering, dependency discovery, automated documentation, test generation, and modernization activities.
  • Validate, optimize, and production-harden AI-generated code and architectural recommendations.
  • Establish best practices and governance for responsible AI-assisted software development within enterprise environments.
