Utilised Test-Driven Development principle to strengthen user passwords by ensuring they could not be guessed easily; passwords must have at least 12 characters, at least 1 uppercase letter, etc
Strengthened the login process for the company by using SQL to create a “Remember me” function; creating a database to store user details, enabling up to 16 logged in users to have access to the system’s data at the same time, even after their sessions have expired.
Boosted customer retention by 30% by using Python to automate emails to engage with customers and broadcast about new products, sales, and discounts.
Discovered the company’s most profitable customers and products by using Python to analyze and answer business questions about 4 months’ worth of sales data.
Increased speed and productivity in the workplace exponentially by integrating Java with Microsoft Excel to mitigate the complexities of working with large spreadsheets.
