Ubeeqo a Europcar company— web platform

Context: Creating Ubeeqo’s platform was part of my role as a Project manager and Full stack software engineer at Inovia, a San Fransisco and Paris based digital agency. For more detailed information, please refer to the agency’s business case.
Ubeeqo is the leading operator of alternative fleet management services in Europe. It optimizes the company car by improving its lifecycle use or replacing it with alternative, customized and economical mobility solutions.

Role and responsibilities: As a full-stack software engineer, I took part in designing and creating from inception the first version of the platform. It was also my responsibility to maintain the system and build evolutions based on business needs and user feedback.
