Work & Experience
Software Development Intern
Innov8-365
Involved in a project where the maintenance and development of sub-systems of a large ERP system were the main responsibilities in the job. The biggest part being the development of a Customer Relations Management Portal. Used JavaScript and Typescript along with frameworks and libraries such as Angular, React, Bootstrap and Material on the frontend with a connection to backend built on NodeJs Therefore, the use of APIs was also included, although they were already built prior to my appointment so I've been more involved with the implementation rather than the creation of the API's themselves. I had in-depth use and learning of Excel spreadsheet, and querying data from the database where I got to learn about data maintenance and converting raw data into important information groups for the client. Infleet 365 _ Develop CRM Portal Infleet is a full ERP fleet management system. To simplify the complexity of the main system, we had to design and develop a Customer Relation Management (CRM) Portal with specific functionality per user by the department. I am the lead design and work mostly on the frontend using React and using data provided by the pre-build APIs from the main system.
