Experience

  • Participation Reports

    A simple UI for searching and evaluating scientific organizations. It includes a uniquely challenging search interface as it allows a predictive search of tens of thousands of organizations done on the front end. I used extensive performance profiling and advanced technologies like web workers to identify and resolve issues. As a result, it is a very fast, highly performant predictive search feature.

  • Transpose Scholarly Records Database
