ACC Senior Services

Software Engineer Intern

Create a scheduling app with two other devs using Django (Python-based framework) for the Sac SCC escort program. Automated appointment scheduling between volunteers and participants and availability collection of volunteers, allowing for the program to scale and reducing employee time spent on this task from hours to minutes. Created a project plan, requirements list, and scheduled weekly meetings with ACC leaders and stakeholders, Sac PD, and clients to translate product requirements to technical specs. Presented and demoed our applications.

Utilized Galaxy Digital and Twilio’s Restful APIs, Bootstrap, SMTP, Datatables and DateTimePicker jQuery plugins (interactive tables and calendar interface) to handle appointment matching between participants and volunteers and UI/UX. Implemented user authentication, token verification, and account creation to handle user security. Implemented unit tests through Django’s testing features, and tested in both local and production environments.

Deployed to the cloud via Digital Ocean and a mounted PostgreSQL database. Created comprehensive workflow documents for redeployment to streamline the onboarding of future ACC software developers. Gained experience with full stack development, working in a professional agile environment, and scrum management.
