Ben Hosch — senior database analyst

I work on data warehousing and ERP integration in the chemical distribution and manufacturing industry. My day-to-day is the SQL Server data warehouse sourced from JD Edwards (JDE): designing facts and dims, managing SSIS pipelines, and presenting data through SSRS and WebFocus reporting.

On top of the warehouse work, I manage near real-time ERP replication that operations and drivers depend on, and handle data integration when acquisitions come in — getting new source data shaped and loaded into JDE. Database server administration for both vended and in-house applications rounds out the role.

Eleven years of database work across chemical manufacturing, energy, gaming, and consulting. DBA roles spanning AlwaysOn Availability Groups, security and compliance (PCI, PHI, PII), ETL pipeline migrations, and team leadership. BS in Information Systems, UW-River Falls, 2013.
