We were a small but mighty team that brought this project to life.
As the project lead, I wore many hats, including Product Manager, Project Manager, Solution Architect, and Front and Back-End Developer.
Our program coordinator for the internship placement program was a key consultant, helping define business logic and requirements. I worked closely with her to ensure the portal met the needs of our users.
The CEO and leadership team provided high-level direction, ensuring the portal aligned with business deliverables and long-term goals.
Our UX/UI Lead conducted user research, created mockups and UI designs, and collaborated on front-end interfaces through pair programming.
Other members of the Code Like a Girl team supported us with QA, marketing, and communications, and our wonderful community stepped in as beta testers, providing valuable feedback and assisting with usability and acceptance testing.
