I was the administrator of Hyperion Enterprise 4.3 at Vencor/Kindred. Around 2000-2001, they went away from Hyperion and I moved into mergers and acquisitions. Did a stint at Bank of America in M&A, then moved to Humana in 2006 to work on an Oracle implementation. In 2007, Oracle purchased Hyperion, so we started implementing some of their BI tools. I was the Oracle sys admin at the time, so didn't have much to do with the reporting side initially. Over time, though, our use of Hyperion grew substantially to the point where we needed a separate team. I moved over to that team in 2013 and have been there since. Now all I do is Hyperion-related. More than you ever wanted to know about my career path, but there you go.
