Key engineering metrics
Messaging
Two-way
Twilio SMS send and receive with persisted conversation history
Access control
Role-based
Thread visibility and actions scoped per user role
Delivery
6–9h offset
Shipped to production asynchronously for a U.S. client
The problem
The client needed their team to handle customer SMS conversations from one place, with the full history visible and clear boundaries over who could see and send what — rather than messages scattered across individual phones.
The solution
I built the platform on the MERN stack in TypeScript, integrating the Twilio API for SMS delivery and receipt. Conversation history is persisted and searchable, user roles gate access to threads and actions, and authentication is handled with secure session management.
The outcome
Delivered to production for a U.S. client while working remotely across a six-to-nine hour time difference. The project is the clearest evidence of my ability to run production-grade work asynchronously with an overseas team.
