Foodie

About

I had the privilege of being the lead engineer on the Foodie project.

Foodie was a peer-2-peer, cottage kitchen marketplace start-up. It was a platform that allowed home cooks to sell their food to the public.

As the lead developer on this project, I worked closely with the founder of Foodie to build the platform from the ground up. This involved multiple phases, including:

  • Identifying technical requirements, frameworks, and third-party services
  • Outlining a roadmap and timeline as part of contract negotiations
  • Building a prototype to validate the concept
  • Integrating with payment gateways
  • On-going development and maintenance

Deliverables

  • Technical leadership during scoping, feature development, and contract negotiations.
  • Project management including client communications, ticket tracking, and reporting.
  • Custom front-end application development.
  • Integration of payment services using the Stripe API.
  • Integration of user account management using Sharetribe.
  • Integration of mapping services using Mapbox.
  • CI/CD, hosting, and DNS setup.
  • Integrated analytics tracking for page views, conversions, and transactions through multiple services including Google Analytics, Hubspot, and Facebook Pixel.
  • Mentored the senior developer who took over the project after 9 months.
