Co-op Data Engineering & Automation

I started my internship (first 6 months) with the data team helping maintain legacy code ingest and processing pipelines (Node Red), creating documentation, creating process, and creating pipelines (Azure Data Factory, and databricks).

Freelance Web Developer

I started Canadian Coding in 2016, initially it was just to produce content around software development. Since then it has grown into an organization with a focus on:

• - Developing sustainable, cost-efficient and performant websites
• - Consulting in both content and development for projects
• - Troubleshooting and diagnosing issues in software projects
• - Creating workflows and automation systems to resolve client issues
• - Creating open source projects to help build and maintain websites
• - Providing resources for other developers to help improve workflow and facilitate learning

Web Services Specialist

I was hired to work as a second level support specialist for the campus CMS system (Drupal). This was managed through a client ticket system for support requests, along with needing to on occasion make direct client, and department coordinator communications and contact to facilitate requests. This included the creation and deletion of sites, technical troubleshooting & feature requests, and assistance with "Cleanup" items (i.e. helping do an audit of sites for http to https change).

The position has evolved and changed as I worked there and adapted as changes were necessary to fit the needs of the department. Some of these different roles have included documentation development, training sessions, assisting with QA, and writing scripts for automation and web parsing to go along with the initial job responsibilities.

Freelance Software & Web Development

I did freelance sub-contracting whenever available in software development, systems setup, and device repair. Some previous projects have included a point of sales (POS) system, a client management & check-in system, and other hardware and software projects.

Brand Ambassador

Worked promoting an HP event for a new line of printers, including a new form of mobile printing for smartphones; specifically helped to usher clients to the demo room and provide training in the use of the VR demo equipment.

Computer Technician & Customer Sales Representative

I worked as a technician to fix any devices that came in (primarily desktops and laptops). As there were few employees, and often only one available at a time I also would some days be responsible for opening, running and closing the store throughout business hours.
