Internship Summary

During the 12-week FCJ internship (Jan 5, 2026 - Apr 3, 2026), I worked on an order management and production line reporting system deployed on AWS.

Key Scope

  • Bootstrapped the backend, environment config, logging, and auth (login/logout).
  • Built RBAC for roles (admin, lineLeader, staff).
  • Implemented admin order workflows and lineLeader reporting.
  • Optimized login, standardized role enums, and improved DB performance.
  • Deployed the frontend to S3/CloudFront, configured caching, and verified post-deploy.
  • Ran UAT, fixed issues, and updated documentation.
  • Researched AI integration options and proposed a PoC scope.

Key Outcomes

  • Completed role-based order and progress reporting flows.
  • Improved performance with indexing and query tuning.
  • Stabilized frontend deployment with CDN and HTTPS configuration.
  • Addressed UAT feedback with production-ready fixes.
