Learnings

Learnings

With only 16 weeks, seamless teamwork was essential. Any misalignment or resource leakage could be critical to achieving our goals.

To stay connected, we held daily scrums via Slack messages, sharing brief bullet-point updates on tasks, current challenges, and overall progress. We also conducted weekly Zoom and in-person meetings to align our status and progress. Additionally, we set aside core coworking hours to work together in real time.

Thanks to the right collaboration strategies, and an amazing team, I spent 16 weeks actively engaging with my teammates, continuously developing the product, and experiencing an exciting cycle of growth.

This experience will serve as a valuable asset in my next career phase, helping me better understand new colleagues and foster synergy in future collaborations. 🚀

Before submitting our contest entry, we set several internal goals with the aim of winning:

  1. Complete a high-quality, high-fidelity application and launch it in the store before the judging.

  2. Develop impactful service features that directly address real problems.

  3. Prove sustainable business model by demonstrating market viability.
