Employer: Xperien IT Management
Position: Multiple Positions
Duties: Online Sales & Website Maintenance:
I manage Xperien's bid or buy account/shop as well as Xperien's e-commerce store. I make sure that both online stores are always updated (I upload all product images and add descriptions, prices and etc.) and provide replies to online customer's quires. I also have the task of finding a specific product's image on the internet (this requires advance internet searching skills) and then once I have selected the image I would use Photoshop CS6 to make sure the picture meet the visual requirements that were stipulated to me by my super visor before uploading to the e-commerce sore or the bid or buy account/shop. This is done on a weekly basis.
Project Management
I was a project manager for two of Xperien software development projects. Xperien needed to build customized that will fit their unique business needs. Some of the important roles I played for both projects were:
• Identify the budget and time frame for the project.
• Do research and various feasibility studies that are related to the custom software that with be developed.
• Design a project proposal brief that will be sent to the outsourcing company.
• Find a suitable outsourcing company to build the software.
• Keep constant communication between executives and outsourcing company.
• Attend to any queries that the outsourcing company might have regarding the project.
• Make sure outsourcing company delivers software on time.
Database Administrator Training
Xperien was using one excel spread sheet to manage all their data (this resulted in cumbersome spread sheet with a lot of columns and rows). I first normalised their excel spread sheet and then proceeded to create a new excel database that has multiple sheets that are connected using a foreign keys (this new spread sheet made it easier to enter, modify, delete and view data). I was then assigned to come up with a database system & application that would make daily processes more efficient. I drew up a brief and a presentation for the proposed system. I presented the proposed system to executives and the system was approved; I was assigned to head the project.
I am currently doing a MCSE BI course to become a certified Database administrator as well as a BI Developer.
