Who we built this for

Client Background

An HR technology company building modern workforce management tools for growing organizations.

The Challenge

HR teams were juggling disconnected tools for hiring, onboarding, and performance reviews — leading to slow hiring cycles, inconsistent employee experiences, and limited visibility into workforce data.

Our Solution

Built a unified HR platform with AI-assisted recruitment workflows, automated onboarding pipelines, role-based dashboards, and real-time analytics — backed by a secure NestJS API and a responsive Next.js frontend.

(The Challenge)

Problems we were brought in to solve

01

Manual Data Entry Overload

Staff were spending 6+ hours daily copying data between spreadsheets, supplier emails, and the ERP system — a process prone to errors and delays.

02

No Real-Time Visibility

Managers had no single view of workflow status. Every update required manually checking multiple systems or calling the operations team.

03

Fragmented Communication

Supplier onboarding involved 12-step email chains. A single missed reply could delay freight clearance by days.

04

Legacy System Constraints

The existing ERP had no public API. Any integration had to be built around screen scraping and CSV exports — brittle and slow.

(Our Solution)

How we solved it

We designed and built a unified HR platform from the ground up — replacing disconnected hiring, onboarding, and performance tools with intelligent, role-based workflows across the full employee lifecycle.

The platform pairs a responsive Next.js frontend with a NestJS and Express backend, OpenAI-powered recruitment insights, JWT-secured APIs, Swagger documentation, and real-time analytics — deployed on AWS with Docker.

What We Built

  • AI-assisted recruitment pipeline with candidate screening and job matching
  • Automated onboarding workflows with document collection and task tracking
  • Role-based dashboards for HR managers, recruiters, and employees
  • Workforce management with attendance, leave, and employee directory
  • Performance tracking with review cycles and goal management
  • Real-time analytics dashboard with hiring and workforce KPIs
  • Secure REST API with Swagger docs, JWT authentication, and RBAC
