In my day job I mostly used MS Office + Visual Basic for Applications and Perl/Python for tasks like automation of processing of large amounts of data or creating small user-interface apps for internal customers. I realize the importance of an easy-to-use, transparent interface for the end-user. In my work at the bank I have also been on the 'customer' side. I worked with an external system provider in the business analysis and testing stage of a large IT project. My individual projects so far include: - a data warehouse for the Trade Finance department of a bank (as a part of my day job) + automated reports basing on this database - a database-driven web app for real estate offers (contract work) /I used Ruby on Rails + MySQL/ - lots office automation (i.e. all recurrent reports in my day job are now automatically created and made accessible for all the department on an FTP server ) - processing of large amounts of data (i.e. analytic data for controlling reports in the bank I work for) + automation thereof - processing text files (parsing and creating files which could then be imported into a database), including web pages or human-readable text reports /written in Perl/ - a monitoring system for the pilot stage of a new Trade Finance product: a desktop database app with an extensive interface, reporting capabilities, scripts for performing recurrent tasks automatically (data retrieval from the bank's systems, creating HTML reports for the customers) - several web scraping tools (written in Perl) - implementation of the Mean-Semivariance portfolio optimization algorithm including an implementation of the Wolfe method for quadratic optimization /numerical computations in C++/ as a part of my Master's thesis
