The most amazing...
...technical challenge I've had was fully remaking the front-end of a legacy front-office app from scratch to enable users to activate their phone data plans.
Employment
Experience
- Front-office Application (Development)
I was part of the team responsible for creating a new version of a legacy front-office application for a big telecom company. Our challenge was to bring to the user a new experience and overall product vision. My role consisted of working closely with the design team to turn prototypes into functional code using the latest techniques to build a rich, interactive, and modern web application through developing standards and best practices.
- Technology Leadership Council App (Development)
At IBM, I participated in an internal volunteer project to create a web app for the onboarding of new members in the Technology Leadership Council (TLC). In addition to contributing delivering the front-end of project features, I also was responsible for idealization and development of a style guide with recommendations, approaches, and a variety of techniques to employ in order to ensure CSS/Sass was maintainable, readable, and scalable.
- Web Editor of Flat Files (Development)
I was responsible for designing the user interface and implementing the front-end of web version for a legacy editor of flat files. I came across challenges such as performance, rendering, and usability and delivered solutions applying my UI/UX and developer skills.
- EducationOne: Online ERP for Schools (Development)
EducationOne is a web system to manage all areas of the school such as financial, administrative, enrollment, and grades. I worked in a highly collaborative agile environment designing the user interface and implementing the front-end of all modules of the system, including the portal for teachers and students.
- UI Experiments at CodePen (Other amazing things)
