Campaign Management System
My role in this project was as a lead front-end developer, and I implemented all the core features and divided them by roles. I also created dashboards to visualize data about campaign executions and failures. In addition, I covered the code with E2E tests and integrated them into CI/CD pipelines; I also reviewed code and mentored junior developers. I also actively communicated with the back-end team and discussed database and API designs. On a final note, I achieved a high level of code cleanliness by using TypeScript in combination with a feature-sliced methodology.
