What I'm Currently Doing

University

I am currently a Computer Science student at Northeastern University.

National Service

I worked on multiple projects to automate processes in my National Service.

I received an outstanding performer certificate commending my work.

Problem statements

  • To digitize the risk-assessment checklists for army drivers: transformed a completely manual process into a fully automated workflow-based process on hand held devices. Received rave reviews from management and users for saving up to 70% time and effort and the user friendly UI design.
  • To digitize temperature taking in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Architecture and design of the solution

  • Used a JavaScript framework
    • Separated the UI into reusable components to share logic and styles
    • Leveraged state management features and cache data to reduce data usage
  • Leveraged modern web technologies such as service workers to enable the website to function offline or in poor data conditions
  • Used AWS for deploying and hosting
  • Used GitHub Actions for automated testing
  • Extensive structured documentation of the codebase for ease of knowledge transfer

Current state

  • Rolled out to production nation-wide
  • Currently being used by over 800 people in across military transport units
