Success stories

Enabling a financial services team to manage transactions and compliance more efficiently

FINTECH

PHP Laravel FilamentPHP Livewire TailwindCSS

Client goal

The client, a financial services provider, needed a custom internal admin panel to replace fragmented tools and manual processes. Their goal was to streamline transaction management, ensure regulatory compliance (KYC, KYB, AML), and provide their internal team with better visibility and control over user accounts and reporting.

What did I do on the project?

I led the development of a custom admin panel, implementing a fully tailored user interface based on Figma designs using FilamentPHP to deliver a refined and intuitive user experience.

The platform allows the internal team to manage users and accounts, track and handle transactions, perform compliance checks, and generate reports.

Helping client in aerospace industry cut down costs and improve efficiency of operations

AEROSPACE INDUSTRY

PHP Laravel FilamentPHP SendGrid Ably MySQL

Client goal

As a successful business running global events in the aerospace industry, this company’s goal was to cut down the costs associated with an excessively priced (4-figures monthly) and subpar event management software that was lacking core features.

What did I do on the project?

Created a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) for event booking, alongside a complete Content Management System (CMS).

The solution allows the client to empower their own clients to take charge of their events. Creating and managing events, from dates and locations to defining the meeting spaces and inviting meeting organisers as well as sending automatic reminders. Features include the ability to upload CSVs of users, viewing schedules of upcoming meetings.

Alongside the main app, a companion web application was also developed, to be used on-site at events, showcasing the schedule and status of a particular meeting room, updated in real-time.

REAL ESTATE

PHP Laravel FilamentPHP SendGrid MySQL

Client goal

As demand for 360° immersive and interactive experiences increased, the company wanted to scale up and move away from its current process which was based on manual input as follows.

  • shipping third-party 360° cameras to their clients;
  • receiving 360° footage, shot using a third-party mobile application paired with the 360° camera;
  • sending the equipment back as well as the footage captured;
  • processing it by the company;
  • delivering the virtual tour to their client;

What did I do on the project?

The complete solution included a CMS (Content Management System) for both the company and its clients, as well as a mobile iOS application, utilizing the latest LiDAR sensors for the iPhone or iPad to capture a 360° 3D snapshot of a space.

The input from my side was the development of the backend technology to support the functionalities of the iOS application such as property and floor management or storage for assets, tridimensional models and floor plans.
