I was part of the Batch team under Defined Contribution majorly (retirement planning service offered by the organization), that will assist in designing and evaluating employee benefit programs for a wide range of clients.

Project 1: Query Optimization - State Of California
Reviewing the Queries/SAS that have taken longer CPU time and taking appropriate actions in order to reduce the CPU time.

  • We found a long-running report generating Query which had several left joins and sub selects where fine-tuning a query wouldn't be fruitful.
  • I've converted the Query into a SAS and have fine-tuned it ,which yielded a effective utilization of CPU time by reducing it to 2% of actual time consumed(saved 98% of CPU Time).

Project 4: Fund Liquidation - Minnesota Mining and
Manufacturing Company

Configure and code the jobs based on the analysis provided from client side , and load the data into TBA system. Also created reports based on client requirements and was responsible for this entire project.
