    I started by resolving any non-web code related technical issues reported by clients. Then I moved to a group that brings data in and organizes it into a SQL database or a Document Management Database that leverages ElasticSearch and/or SQL depending on our searching needs. We also are responsible for multiple SQL databases where I am in charge of managing our schema and most of the important stored procedures, and we manage the ElasticSearch clusters.
