Summary:
Aware3, a subsidiary of Nelnet Inc., is dedicated to simplifying engagement for local church communities. By combining technical innovation with a mission to foster nationwide connections, Aware3 has steadily expanded its reach. Its platform empowers churches and their members across a wide range of devices, creating meaningful opportunities to strengthen relationships and positively impact countless lives.
Project Outcome:
I seamlessly integrated into the development team, adopting an agile approach to enhance existing capabilities and deliver scalable solutions. Collaborating closely via Jira and Slack, we followed agile practices such as daily standups, three-week sprints, and Epic planning to stay aligned. I contributed to successfully modernizing their legacy software by upgrading the tech stack to PHP 8, Laravel 10, and Vue 3. Additionally, I implemented new features, including text and email integrations for marketing and donation campaigns, improved the CRM UI components, and expanded API integrations to increase system efficiency and functionality.
