I have, in some shape or form, been integrating disparate systems since I first started working professionally. Having founded an EDI company in 2012, our driving focus was tying EDI into existing systems through any means necessary. Over the years, I have learned many integration tools that greatly assist in the process, but I will always remember those scrappy first years where every connection had to be done manually. In my early years I learned to program video games using Macromedia Flash & Microsoft Visual Basic. Since then I’ve continually expanded my knowledge in programming languages and coding methodologies. This has allowed me to develop numerous applications, adapters & API’s for some of the companies that I have supported. I love finding interesting new problems to solve, and to collaborate with my colleagues to find the best avenue to pursue. Contributing to ongoing projects has been a huge source of joy for myself in the past few years. This has led to me getting involved in the open source software and hardware development areas, and eventually being handed the reins of the Inkeys project; a community focused on building accessible hardware and software. From: January, 2023 To: Present Daily duties include EDI Support, Managing Integrations. Responsibilities include SAP Hybris, SCPI, Sterling Integrator, and EDI development. Developing and Supporting in house applications using C# and Microsoft’s Entity Framework. From: January, 2023 To: Present I manage multiple EDI Integrations from Discovery to Production Migration while maintaining customer relations. I have taken the lead on 3PL integrations on multiple occasions. My team developed a REST API that enables EDI communications to be process via an AWS backend service. I was responsible for writing a Connector that enables Workato users to process EDI Documents directly within the Workato system. From: May, 2019 To: September, 2021 I supervised daily EDI Operations as the sole EDI Coordinator for Ameripride. For many projects, we would work directly with SPS Commerce for EDI integrations. My team was responsible for EDI migration from BizManager to Oracle B2B. Among my other responsibilities, I also gathered requirements for new EDI connections and developed the required maps. The existing Sharepoint system was put under my control and I took control of new development for in house processes. From: July, 2013 To: April, 2022 I created a comprehensive EDI solution integrating the BOTS EDI Translator, AS2, SFTP, and a custom built web frontend for our clients. I also setup and maintained server security using SSH authentication for all connections and installing security patches as needed.About
