Systems Engineer – Alteryx Platform Specialist - Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) - Hyderabad, India

(2022-02)

Engaged as an automation and platform specialist supporting ALDI's enterprise data automation ecosystem — partnering with business stakeholders to identify inefficient, manual processes and deliver low-code automation solutions that replace them, while administering the underlying 9-node Production & 3-node UAT platform for high-availability, SLA-compliant delivery.

• Gathered requirements directly from business stakeholders across retail operations, inventory management, and finance; translated pain points into scalable, low-code automation workflow designs.
• Led end-to-end technology deployment — from design through UAT validation to production rollout — for ETL and reporting automation consolidating data from SAP, Oracle, SQL Server, Snowflake, MongoDB(Alteryx Managed Repository) and Databricks into centralized reporting layers.
• Loaded transformed data into diverse target systems — Snowflake, Salesforce, Databricks, SharePoint, Tableau, and Power BI — using Alteryx Standard and Output tool via ODBC DSN and DSN-less connection strings (DCM), enabling flexible integration across the reporting ecosystem.
• Applied SQL filtering and join operations at the database level during extraction to reduce data volume before loading into Alteryx, and used load-optimization parameters to improve performance when writing large datasets back to target systems.
• Working knowledge of integrating REST APIs into Alteryx Designer workflows for automated data ingestion from external systems.
• Replaced manual, error-prone reporting processes with automated pipelines, measurably reducing processing time and turnaround for recurring business operations.
• Built reusable macros, and parameter-driven interfaces enabling non-technical business users to self-serve reporting, extending automation adoption beyond the technical team.
• Implemented data validation and cleansing logic to catch schema drift and data-quality issues upstream, supporting data governance standards before data reached business-facing Tableau/Power BI reports.
• Partnered with Databricks/Azure and Theobald (SAP) connector teams to resolve integration, authentication, and connectivity issues blocking automation delivery.
• Built and published a License Utilization Dashboard to Tableau, turning platform usage data into a governance reporting tool for management.
• Developed a Process Bottleneck Analysis Dashboard to measure workflow execution trends, turnaround times, and operational KPIs, supporting continuous process improvement initiatives in Alteryx.
• Built an Exception Monitoring Dashboard to proactively track workflow failures, scheduling issues, and SLA breaches, enabling faster incident resolution.
• Developed an automated License Optimization process to identify inactive users and underutilized licenses, improving governance and license utilization.
• Developed an automated Audit Evidence Collection workflow using Alteryx Server metadata by consolidating workflow execution logs, user activity, scheduling information, and execution status into standardized Excel reports, significantly reducing manual effort during platform governance and compliance reviews.
• Administered a 9-node Production and 3-node UAT automation platform environment, owning platform stability, user access, and licensing for a large, multi-country user base.
• Managed and monitored automated job scheduling on Alteryx Server, ensuring reliable recurring execution of production workflows.
• Managed complete user lifecycle, role-based access groups, and country-specific entitlement reviews to enforce data governance and compliance requirements.
• Led platform upgrade initiatives across UAT and PROD, coordinating change management with cross-functional teams to minimize business disruption.
• Drove incident resolution via ServiceNow within SLA, producing detailed root-cause-analysis documentation for high-priority (P1/P2) issues escalated to leadership.
• Coordinated with vendor support teams on critical platform issues, owning the case lifecycle from submission through resolution.
• Prepared recurring governance reports, health-check dashboards, and status materials for leadership, tracking platform performance, license utilization, and workflow reliability.
