Overview

As Software Engineer & Quality Manager at Synaxon, I developed a gamified motivation system that transformed product data quality through user engagement. The system enabled users to correct inaccurate product descriptions while being rewarded for their contributions, creating a self-improving data ecosystem that enhanced purchasing decision reliability.

Built with JSF/JEE architecture, the web application featured parallel user workflows, comprehensive user management, and robust quality assurance mechanisms. The gamification elements motivated continuous data improvement while maintaining high accuracy standards through peer evaluation and validation processes.
