(01)The Problem

Context & Operational Friction

Traditional text-only hiring fails to communicate applicant demeanor and spoken presence, slowing early-stage candidate filtering.

(02)What I Built

Granular Deliverables • 4 Milestones

(01)Developed a mobile-first short-video feed platform with fluid viewport playback and interaction handlers.
(02)Integrated Google OAuth authentication via Firebase Authentication for friction-free sign-in.
(03)Implemented user engagement mechanics including video likes and bookmarking.
(04)Engineered infinite feed pagination connected to Firestore.

(03)Decisions that mattered

Architectural Reasoning & Tradeoffs

DECISION 01

Prioritized viewport intersection playback to conserve mobile bandwidth and avoid device memory exhaustion on long feeds.

DECISION 02

Cut signup friction for jobseekers to a single tap while delegating token verification and security entirely to managed services.
