I was brought on Luca Locations mobile team to help develop new features that it’s users were requesting and also to fix known issues as well as polish / refine existing features.
One “Big Ticket” item I worked on and developed solo was the “Events” feature which was being built out for a major event in Berlin

By adding user requested features we increased our user satisfaction score which lead to more users being interested in the app which lead to more restaurants ( paying clients ) joining Luca Locations

Project 2

Contribution
Implement “Events” feature for a major event in Berlin

Even though this feature was being developed for a particular major event in Berlin the functionality was built in such a way that it is reusable by other events unlocking a whole new category of potential paying customers
