• Conducted comprehensive user research, including interviews and surveys with developers to understand their job search habits, preferences, and pain points.

• Analyzed existing job listing platforms to identify gaps and areas for improvement.

• Collected insights that highlighted the need for a clean interface, advanced filtering options, and real-time updates.

2. Ideation and Concept Development:

• Focused on a mobile-first approach to ensure usability on various devices.

• Designed wireframes and mockups in Figma, prioritizing simplicity and ease of use.

• Emphasized a clean, minimalistic design with a prominent search bar, clear job categories, and intuitive navigation.

3. Prototyping and Iteration:

• Developed interactive prototypes to visualize the user flow and interface elements.

• Conducted usability testing sessions with target users to gather feedback on the design and functionality.

• Iteratively refined the prototypes based on user feedback to enhance usability and user satisfaction.

4. Implementation and Testing:

• Developed the frontend using React, ensuring component reusability and maintainability.

• Implemented responsive design techniques to provide a seamless experience across desktops, tablets, and mobile devices.

• Integrated APIs to fetch real-time job listings and ensure up-to-date information.
