“I have worked with Don since the inception of agile, and the Analytics scrum within Agile, and he is the backbone of our scrum. During this time I have experienced the immense value, insight, leadership, and progressive thinking he provides. In the time I have worked with Don, I have seen him accomplish many impressive feats. To name a few: • Designed and planned our data warehouse foundation for populating invaluable information for insight into hadoop datastore • Researched and designed jobs leveraging the map reduce and cloud technology our infrastructure is built upon • Architect the foundation for ‘real-time’ analytics dramatically decreasing the amount of resources needed from our cluster • Researched, implemented, and developed the ingestion of search related data paving the way for predictive analytics • Provided vital feedback to other scrum/groups with the program to ensure a successful long-term vision is recognized from their develop and supporting efforts • Laid the ground work for ingesting and visualizing complex polygons using our new business intelligence application for the deployment of map-oriented visualizations At the end of the day I view Don as a solid asset to any company that has the benefit of having him as a part of their staff. 5-star associate!”
