2018 - 2019
job
Threat Analyst
BAE Systems.
I moved to Bristol for a yearlong placement as part of the insider threat team. The team was tasked with ensuring data is not leaked, accidentally or intentionally, from within the company. This was done via various functions and rules set up to monitor and prevent data being sent. I was in charge of a big data platform called 'Elastic'. This tool was used for analysis by the entire team, so it needed to be running as efficiently as possible. During my time, I implemented a dedicated data store for the storage of the archives. I also improved the processing speed of the cluster by optimizing the logical processors.
In addition, there were catastrophes that I had to recover the cluster from. There was a power cut which took the cluster offline and there was no recovery workflow so I had to improvise and research recovery steps for myself. Furthermore, the version of Elastic that was used at the time was outdated and it had started to experience consistent problems rendering it useless. This meant I had to update the cluster within a few hours as my manager needed to run some vital analysis on it. I was also responsible to make amends to the configurations when there was new data to be added so that the new data can be used in Elastic.
Additionally, I would run regular reports as well as ad hoc reports. This was to support the team who would request specific information which I did provide. During my time here I was accompanied by a placement student who was then replaced with another student in June. I organised the handover and trained the new starter with all the systems. Also, I have been communicating with colleagues located in different offices through various mediums. Using my own initiative to solve tasks and proactively assessing and improving the system.

job
Customer Advisor
B&Q.
I was part of the decoration team at B&Q. My duties would involve assisting customers with any queries they may have and helping them choose or find the correct product for their needs. If we did not have the product the customer was looking for, I would use the 'SAPCO' system to order the product for the customer. Also, I was trained on the paint mixing machines to mix paint to any colour the customer desires. I was known as the 'Club card king' as I consistently signed the most customers up to the B&Q club card compared to my co-workers.
