Christian Lanctôt - Data Specialist

About

I was trained as a scientist and pursued a successful research career in academia and in industry. I gained a solid expertise in project management within small and large teams.

In 2018, I reoriented my career toward an initial passion, computing, which had brought me at the early age of 16 to commercialize software written in assembly language.

I now have 5 years of experience working with data in the field of healthcare and telecommunications. I am looking to apply my expertise to solving complex data management and analysis problems.

My personal philosophy is well illustrated by the following relationships.

creation > copy

knowledge > information

contents > container

I successfully designed and developped a series of Talend interfaces to enable data transfer between ERP and technical applications.

The complexity of these interfaces reside in the need for them to be highly dynamic and adapt to existing data, as well as in the need to handle SOAP and REST services.

These web services use integration functions of Apache Camel routes.

The logging of transactions is mediated via the ActiveMQ messaging system.

In close collaboration with my technical colleagues, I carried out numerous unit and integrated tests.

Design and development of a data warehouse for Quebec addresses.

ETL of more than 2 million entries from open sources.

Programming of an API to access data in order to provide data to, among others, autocomplete fields in web forms.

Hosting of the data warehouse and the API on a VPS (virtual private server).

I played a key role in a project of financial data analysis and visualization.

My responsabilities included setting up a data warehouse as well as developing ETL interfaces to feed it.

In addition, I created numerous dashboards to display performance indicators and history of transactions.

The customer was very satisfied with the rapid pace and the quality of the work.

I played a key role in the introduction and use of geospatial data in the company.

I called upon my expertise with PostGIS to set up a database of geolocalized entries.

I programmed tools to match addresses from the ERP application with those of a reference database.

The availability of geospatial data allowed me to generate maps showing the distribution of customers.
