My work primarily focused on the API layer (built in GraphQL), and the modern front end (built in ng5 and typescript) application. The API layer is designed to work both with our well designed front end app, as well as with our client’s if they choose to design their own. I worked very closely with product and the architecture team to plan out specs, and how the application will be built.
