Databases are administered directly: PostgreSQL deployed on Linux with a custom-built ETL pipeline; SQL Server on Windows; Db2, SQL Server, and PostgreSQL kept in sync as a unified sales data backend. PowerBI reporting built end-to-end, including all underlying data models. Additional tools include VBA for Excel extensibility and R for price modeling analysis. ERP experience spans SAP and Epicor CMS in manufacturing environments.
