My Role

Leagues.gg was my first full-time, on-site developer position. I started early on as mainly focusing on the frontend and later on as the company changed focus and restructured, I transitioned into doing everything from full-stack tasks to DevOps work as well as taking the lead role of the frontend development team.

Outside of the frontend I also contributed to backend development, database operations, security, task management, prioritization and DevOps to ensure the system is scalable and reliable.

My main contributions:
  • Significantly improved user experience, reliability, and security by implementing full stack features with robust error handling, thoughtful UI design, and secure coding practices
  • Considerably optimized the onboarding process and development speed by leading a rebuild of the frontend from an outdated, underperforming, and largely deprecated system to a modern and optimized one using a modern and industry standard tech stack
  • Strengthened project focus and delivery efficiency by contributing key insights to feature and project prioritization aligning development efforts with user needs and business goals

Technologies Used

Workflow

We worked as a small team of 3 developers, with a focus on delivering high-quality code and features on time. This meant that everyone needed to have a strong understanding of the entire codebase and how each feature contributes to the product in order for us to work efficiently as a team. We used Linear as our project management tool, and held daily stand-ups to discuss the progress of the project. An important part of our workflow was to code review every single PR before it was merged into the protected main branch.
