A mental health application for the workplace, targeted at hospitals and their staff (NZ). Users can go in, create a daily entry of how they’re feeling, and be sent contextual advice, resources and status updates on how their mental health is tracking.
What i did
I started off as the sole developer building the cross-platform application using react-native. We initially built an MVP to test product market fit, and then progressed into developing further features.
By this point, I was the tech lead for this project - a fancy way of saying I oversaw frontend, backend and mobile development of ongoing features, as well as executing on the frontend development itself. We built a supporting web app, where I created an admin portal to support extensive leadership hierarchies found in hospitals, to enable them to customise and push content to their most vulnerable.
I then left the agency working on this project to persue a role with Atlassian. A year went by, and after having a chat with the CEO, they were keen for me to re-join the project on a part-time basis (Which I did for about 4 months). During this stint I was to able to
Completely revamp their app onboarding flows to allow basic user access, moving the organisation signup step to be optional, as well as at the bottom of the funnel & accessible via settings. This saw the signup funnel health increase by over 250% while only decreasing that later step throughput by 12% Day 0 and 2% Week 2
Re-architected the structure, data patterns and re-usability process of their frontend components. This involved introducing patterns that would enable them to scale, as well as re-working existing patterns to provide a smoother app experience.
