StaffTimerApp: Workforce Operations Platform for Multi-role Teams

Context

StaffTimerApp needed a platform capable of supporting multiple user roles with different permissions, responsibilities, and reporting needs. Existing workflow behavior was inconsistent and difficult to extend.

Constraints

• Multiple operational personas with distinct access and action scopes.
• Tight delivery windows for customer-facing improvements.
• Need for backend logic that remained easy to evolve.

Architecture Highlights

• Role-aware service design for clean authorization and workflow handling.
• Stronger lifecycle rules for time and attendance records.
• Backend structure designed for modular extension instead of monolithic growth.
• Practical observability and diagnostics around operational edge cases.

Key Decisions

• Anchored feature work in explicit role and state models.
• Kept business rules centralized to avoid logic drift across interfaces.
• Prioritized maintainability to support ongoing team delivery.

What I Owned

• Architecture decisions for backend workflows and role handling.
• Core implementation in Laravel/Vue stack areas.
• Technical collaboration with product and delivery stakeholders.

Outcome

The platform became more dependable for day-to-day operations and easier for teams to extend. New features could be delivered without repeatedly reopening the same workflow reliability issues.
