As the Systems Analyst and Project Manager for Own A Coder, my role is to investigate, analyze, design, evaluate, and maintain a customers’ information system. I am available to be in constant interaction with users and managers within an outside the organization. On large projects, I am able to work with a member of your IT department, on smaller assignments I am able to work alone.
As a member of a functional team, I am able to understand the needs of a specific area such as a marketing, sales, or accounting department and how IS supports the department’s mission. Smaller companies often use consultants to perform systems analysis work on an as-needed basis. With OAC, you are able to obtain the services of myself as well as multiple developers across the globe working on your project around the clock.
Responsibilities

As a system developer, I perform a wide array of tasks, such as building business profiles, reviewing business processes, selecting hardware and software packages, designing information systems, training users, and planning e-commerce Web sites.
A systems analyst, plans projects, develops schedules, and estimates costs. To keep managers and users informed, I am able to conduct meetings, deliver presentations, and write memos, reports, and documentation.
