Internal Networking Tool for Philip Morris Italia

On this project, we built an app for internal use, and it consisted of a multitenant system. Five PMI teams used it to manage the communication between headquarters and hundreds of employees and clients. The app uses an entirely serverless architecture of React on the front end and AWS Amplify on the back end.

As a front-end leader, my role was to do most of the UI/UX development as well as to participate in the build of the cloud architecture. It was also my responsibility to review code contributions from colleagues in charge of refining the UI visuals.

Because we were developing software for five teams with different needs, we had to make the application flexible enough to satisfy several hundred users that now use it daily.

To meet that challenge—while remaining flexible and the codebase safe and well structured—we developed the app using a test-oriented approach. We also used Cypress.io to run end-to-end tests on the whole system, ensuring that refactors and new implementations wouldn't compromise the existing app.

Some of my responsibilities included:

• Refactoring the app for a multitenant architecture
