Experience

Web-based Digital Damage Claim System

A React- and Node.js-based digital damage claim system integrated with the client's core systems through a middleware. The system included a flexible form system that allows for complex dependencies based on server-side data processing.

I led the front-end engineering working closely with back-end engineers and UX designers, integrating the React front-end with the API, and developing reusable components according to the client's design guidelines.

Cross-platform Educational Mobile Application

A React Native-based mobile app for aspiring medical students to study for the entrance examination.

I was the lead front-end engineer, developing the mobile app from scratch. The app sychronizes data from the server to the client and offers both a single-player and a multi-player quiz game.
