My time at Vaave was a great spell. Vaave is a SaaS platform that helps educational institutions build and manage their alumni network.
I led the mobile team and was responsible for the architecture, development, and maintenance of the app.
My main focus was on the My Alumni Network app, which was built using React Native. I worked on the app from scratch and scaled it from 30k to over 400k users.
I got to work on many interesting projects/ features, such as:
Real-time chat: We rolled out a real-time chat feature in just 4 months. This feature was a game-changer for our users, and it helped us increase our daily active users by 50%.
Push notifications: I integrated Firebase Cloud Messaging to send push notifications to our users. This feature helped us increase user engagement by 30%.
Real-time audio calls: I integrated Agora.io to enable audio calls within the app. This feature was a huge hit among our users.
Job board: I built a job board feature that allowed alumni to post job openings and apply for jobs. This feature helped us increase user engagement by 40%.
