Other information
One of the key challenges of the project was working with React technology alongside a design system developed by a team in Spain. The choice of React introduced compromises in the user experience, as developers also relied on iFrames. Additionally, ShipEngine's outdated backend required extensive collaboration with developers at every stage of the onboarding process.
The design system posed another hurdle, as it was not fully optimized for responsive screens. I proposed updates to improve the user experience, and these suggestions were successfully implemented.
A major frustration during the project was the push to deliver quickly, which limited opportunities for user testing and introducing new ideas. Despite these constraints, the team maintained a highly collaborative and positive spirit.
Ultimately, we delivered the project ahead of schedule. ShipEngine Elements represents a critical technical component for Auctane's global product strategy, and I’m proud to have contributed to its success.
