Context
Bitgrip is a German digital agency that provides software development services for various firms.
Due to a high workload, they needed immediate hands-on support for two different projects: B2B printer provider Triumph-Adler and major pump manufacturer KSB.
Solution
My role in Triumph-Adler was to take care of features and changes that the client requested. I worked together with a product owner and a backend developer working with a CMS called CoreMedia. I worked in React and Next.js.
At KSB, I joined a full Scrum team to help with the workload developing new features, fixing bugs, and handling tech debt. I worked in React, Node.js, TypeScript, and SASS.
Reflections
Due to this project, I improved my German communication skills. I also had to adapt to the team at Bitgrip and learn about their methods and processes.
Before I finished my role, I was asked to give the company some feedback. I presented what they did well and provided some suggestions on how to improve their development cycle.
