Delivered a broad portfolio of projects across student-facing systems and internal administrative processes. The engagement spanned nearly two years - reflecting strong performance and a contract extension - and covered the full development lifecycle from requirements gathering and design through to deployment and post-launch support. Core technical work centred on PL/SQL development within the e:Vision platform, encompassing batch process automation, multi-environment deployments and data integrity management.
Key achievements included leading the end-to-end delivery of a student self-certification system with automated notifications and a staff management portal; spearheading enhancements to an extenuating circumstances portal including bulk record management and soft-deletion audit compliance; designing and implementing an automated research supervisory meeting scheduling system to replace a legacy process; and taking ownership of post-launch support for a student change request system, successfully transitioning it to a stable maintenance phase. Additional contributions included absence tracking automation, dissertation supervisor management extensions and a complex iterative process for the automated transfer of student records during course changes.
