During my internship at Yardstick, I had the opportunity to work on an AI-driven workflow automation platform that was designed to scale efficiently and handle a large user base. The focus was on building a modern, performant web application using the latest technologies.
Key Responsibilities
Platform Development
Developed an AI-driven workflow automation platform using Next.js, optimizing for scalability, performance, and low latency to support a large user base. The platform leveraged cutting-edge technologies to deliver a seamless user experience.
Modern Web Technologies
Implemented modern web technologies, including React Server Components (RSCs), Suspense-based data fetching, and lazy loading. These optimizations improved SEO significantly and achieved high Lighthouse scores across all metrics.
Backend Integration
Integrated Stripe for secure payment processing and Prisma for efficient database management. I was responsible for designing a RESTful API that was scalable, secure, and high-performance, ensuring smooth data flow between the frontend and backend.
Skills Developed
This internship allowed me to deepen my understanding of full-stack development, particularly in building scalable applications with modern frameworks. I gained hands-on experience with payment integrations, database optimization, and performance tuning for web applications.
