React Native app for iOS and Android: map-based venue discovery, live last-minute availability, the full booking lifecycle, and an AI concierge by voice or text.
Twelve Spring Boot microservices plus eight integration services putting SevenRooms, ResDiary, DesignMyNight, EatApp, Zonal, Zenchef and CoverManager behind one reusable pattern.

Clientele Life

Johannesburg · Life assurance

AI CV screening a recruiter can defend

Multi-tenant, white-labelled shortlisting built so that every ranking can be justified to a candidate or a regulator.

Weighted screening criteria extracted from the job description, CVs parsed with OCR, and candidates matched semantically using vector embeddings.
Every match carries a verbatim quote from the source CV, and personal information is redacted before scoring — so a shortlist is explainable and defensible.
Runs on cloud AI or a fully self-hosted language model per tenant, with dedicated tests proving data isolation between tenants.

Johannesburg · Municipal infrastructure

GIS register of municipal property — erf data, GPS position, zoning, valuation, occupancy and leases — built to the client’s formal RFQ specification and traceability matrix.
Offline-first field verification as both a progressive web app and an Android app, capturing camera and location without a connection.
BPMN-driven approvals, a tamper-evident audit trail and privileged access management, on PostgreSQL/PostGIS with OAuth2/OIDC, and ninety-nine backend tests behind an enforced coverage gate.
