Full Stack Developer - Salesforce Python Cubes BI Tool
Full Stack Developer - Salesforce Python Cubes BI Tool

Developed a tool which works like OLAP Cubes by taking data snapshots of SalesForce objects and uploading those objects to Big Query. The final solution is a multi module Python project, which can accept specific specifications for data snapshots (e.g. snapshots of leads object, or order object), automatically build SQL schema from scratch (primary keys, foreign keys, tables) and upload data snapshots to Big Query. It uses Google sheets and other APIs for data input - critical for data aggregation and visualization processes. The solution automates the complex workflow followed by analysts within a company on a weekly basis using Excel and other tools. It can also perform more complex snapshot calculations as well as offload dependencies onto the SalesForce data storage which is priced per GB of storage.
