  • Has hands-on experience with Informatica MDM Hub configurations - Data modeling & Data Mappings (Landing, staging and Base Objects), Data validation, Match and Merge rules, Writing down the cleanse functions.
  • Configured schema, staging tables, landing tables, base objects foreign-key Relationships, look up systems and tables, packages, query groups and queries/custom queries.
  • Created Mappings to get the data loaded into the Staging tables during the Stage Process.
  • Coordinated with business leads to clarify Match & Merge processes, integrating their requirements and feedback into the project.
  • Assisted in testing MDM solution, ensuring quality through unit and integration testing.
  • Migrated the MDM codes to different environments.
  • Collaborated with cross-functional teams to gather project requirements and specifications.
  • Assisted in troubleshooting technical issues and debugging applications effectively.
  • Managed business continuity planning activities to ensure operational resilience.
  • Current Project: Omni Channel (Contact MDM), Customer Insight Master Data Management (CIMD) & Informatica Person MDM SaaS
  • Client: Medtronic
  • Role: Developer/Support
  • Tenure: July 2021 to till date
  • Project description: The MDM Components are responsible for data conversion and transformation for Informatica MDM and mastering of overall customer data. Here the data Data received from the source in csv format are loaded into multiple Tables and the valid customers of source are taken for further Processing and The supportive flat file-based reference/lookup data is processed till MDM landing layer. The Customer MDM data generally comes from different source systems. Golden records get created in MDM which will then be used to avoid creation of duplicate Customer records and provide a single source of truth for Customers across Medtronic. A cross reference table based on the golden Customer record (Curated MDM) will be pushed back to end applications for downstream data consumption. ETL processes will be employed to push data from MDM todownstream layer as part of outbound loads. Customer insight master data is mastering of the batch data coming from multiple source systems through MDM functionalities and publishing the mastered golden data to downstream consuming systems.
