Cardmarket Restock

During my involvement with Magic: The Gathering, I recognized the inefficiencies of the cardmarket platform's user interface, particularly in cataloging and pricing cards accurately and efficiently.

To streamline my selling process and ensure my catalog remained up-to-date, I developed a custom script.

This script, executed daily after price updates, automatically adjusted the pricing of my inventory to reflect the current average market value of each card.

Welcome React Islands

During a period when our Ruby on Rails projects lacked asset pipelines utilizing Webpack, the need arose to integrate React widgets into our applications.

To address this challenge, I devised a sophisticated asset pipeline system.

This system efficiently bundled all application assets, including images, CSS, and JavaScript (using the established asset pipeline), while incorporating my custom Webpack configuration to handle React island projects.

The resulting asset manifest would be seamlessly validated by our Rails application, enabling .html.erb files to effortlessly import React widgets.

This initiative streamlined the integration of React components within our Rails ecosystem, enhancing the flexibility and functionality of our applications.

Petcare

Led the Petcare project, aimed at assisting municipal dog kennels in efficiently managing their animals to ensure their well-being.

Developed using Ruby on Rails, this project marked one of the company's inaugural Software as a Service (SaaS) products.

The platform streamlined animal management processes, empowering kennel staff to provide optimal care for the animals under their supervision.

Participare

Joined a collaborative team tasked with enhancing the company's participatory budgeting application.

This multifaceted project involved integrating new features into the existing system, which comprised components written in both Angular and React.

The application's complexity posed a challenge, particularly as it coincided with my initial exposure to the earliest public version of React.

Through this experience, I gained valuable insights into managing diverse technology stacks within a single project environment while adapting to emerging frameworks.

This project underscored my ability to navigate complex software ecosystems and embrace new technologies effectively.

CMS team integration

Recognizing my contributions to the legacy CMS system, the company elevated me to the new CMS team.

My responsibilities encompassed addressing bug fixes and spearheading the development of innovative features.

One notable achievement involved addressing a client's requirement for dynamic map creation with defined layers, restricting marker placement within specified outlines.

In this capacity, I took charge of implementing the CMS backend infrastructure for data organization and validation of map layers.

Additionally, I devised a reusable JavaScript module on the frontend to dynamically render maps based on user-defined settings.

ASP.NET Legacy CMS maintenance

Assumed the task of maintaining the company's legacy CMS, addressing client-reported bugs and incorporating critical features to enhance functionality.

My role was pivotal in expediting the final phases of development as the company transitioned clients to the new CMS systems built on top of Rails.

GoGal

Developed a comprehensive trip planning and reservation system for a prominent Portuguese company specializing in organizing trips for individuals with special needs.

Functioning akin to popular booking platforms, users are required to log in to initiate trip planning.

The system allows users to select from a variety of pre-determined trip options, customize their booking by specifying the number of guests and rooms required, and importantly, designate accommodations for individuals with special needs within the chosen itinerary.

This system streamlines the trip planning process, ensuring seamless coordination and accommodation for diverse traveler requirements.

Backoffice Management for UTAD University
