During my tenure at Translate Digital, I was an integral part of the mobile development team for the Parkable app, a platform designed for discovering and booking parking spaces. As the third mobile developer on the project, I took on the challenge of transitioning the existing native apps to React Native, a cross-platform framework that utilizes JavaScript. To accomplish this, I built a native bridge that allowed the integration of React Native code within the native app. This approach enabled us to gradually replace substantial portions of the app with React Native code, ultimately achieving a fully functional React Native app
Notably, the Parkable app received recognition for its exceptional growth and success, winning the prestigious 2018 Deloitte Fast 50 Rising Star award.

In addition to my technical responsibilities, I championed the development of two component libraries, one for React and one for React Native. These libraries ensured consistent design patterns and facilitated reusability across both web and mobile platforms. I also focused on optimizing the performance of the React Native Google Maps library, which was used to display parking locations on a map. By creating a custom bridge that connected the library to the native Google Maps SDK, I significantly enhanced its speed and responsiveness.
Beyond these technical achievements, I played a pivotal role in building out key features related to public parking, including functionalities such as searching, booking, payment, and reviews of parking spaces. Furthermore, I contributed to the initial implementation of the B2B parking product, enabling businesses to manage their parking spaces and offer them to employees or customers. This product enjoyed tremendous success and quickly established dominance in the market since its launch.
Throughout my time at Translate Digital, I demonstrated a strong commitment to technical excellence, driving significant advancements in the Parkable app. These contributions were instrumental in its widespread adoption and success within the parking industry.
