About project #
Trakr app is designed for hunters to connect with dog trackers. It streamlines the process of finding and communicating with trackers, providing real-time mapping, high-quality media transfers, and instant notifications. The app aims to make it easier for hunters to recover wounded game by connecting them with the largest network of vetted trackers. I was subcontracted to design and lead implementation of Trakr backend for iOS and Android apps.

Project scope #
The project was built entirely from scratch. I was responsible for designing and leading the implementation of both the backend and the AWS cloud infrastructure. Despite having a small team of just two developers, we managed to complete the project within stringent deadlines. Throughout the implementation phase, my team and I worked closely with the iOS and Android developers to ensure we delivered maximum value to the client, all while adhering to the budget and timelines.
