Forefront's career-development framework was managed through paper forms, PDFs and personal documents, limiting engagement outside annual reviews. The firm needed to test a digital alternative and understand what production-grade delivery would require.
I built a React and Supabase prototype for core review and development workflows, then translated the concept into a complete PRD, a four-epic development roadmap and a proposed Next.js production architecture.
Forefront received a working prototype and a decision-ready path to production, including defined product scope, phased delivery, technical architecture and the operational requirements for further investment.
Mapped employee, manager and administrator workflows around role-specific competencies, reviews and Forefront's five development areas.
Prototyped ratings, goal-setting, progress tracking and AI-assisted coaching workflows in React and Supabase.
Defined a serverless target architecture using Next.js, Supabase Row-Level Security and EU-region infrastructure, with explicit plans for GDPR, accessibility, testing and scale.
