Over six months, contributed to the hotosm/tasking-manager repository by building a comprehensive gamification and analytics layer, including user levels, badges, and experience tracking. Leveraged Python, React, and SQLAlchemy to design robust APIs, implement database migrations, and deliver dynamic UI components for user management and onboarding. Enhanced data integrity and accessibility through backend validation, frontend refinements, and improved error handling. Introduced features such as anonymous project listing, level-based permissions, and detailed user statistics, while maintaining code quality with standardized formatting and expanded test coverage. This work improved platform reliability, streamlined admin workflows, and enabled data-driven decisions for mapping quality and engagement.
September 2025, hotosm/tasking-manager: delivered four major feature updates, fixed reliability gaps, and enhanced analytics to drive participation, governance, and mapping quality. Key outcomes include broader access with Anonymous Project Listing, streamlined and correct badge progression, a more permissive default validation model to reduce bottlenecks, and restored per-mapping-level statistics to inform dashboards and user engagement strategies. In parallel, unit/integration tests were strengthened to ensure reliability and prevent regressions.

July 2025 focused on delivering a cohesive gamification layer (badges and levels) and strengthening the platform's reliability, while also improving the admin and UI experience. Major features included end-to-end badges/levels lifecycle with migrations, voting/nomination flows, and a level-approval path; a revamped User List and Stats Management UI; and image upload UX improvements gated by API key. Additionally, API reliability was enhanced through adjustments for API changes, standardized error handling for the OhSome API, and a public badges endpoint with badges displayed on user profiles. Code quality and data correctness were improved via SonarQube fixes, Black formatting, date handling fixes, stats synchronization, and rounding for presentation.

May 2025 — hotosm/tasking-manager: Delivered end-to-end dynamic mapping level capabilities across services and data models, with a table-backed MappingLevel enabling consistent mapping level handling in user retrieval, DTOs, services, and APIs. Implemented MappingLevel API enhancements (list and manipulation endpoints) and refactored enums to align with the new data model. Added Badges API and MappingBadgeService with create/get_all/update, expanding mapping-level governance and gamification. Completed database migrations for is_beginner and mapping_badges, including user-crossing relationships. Updated tests and fixtures for mapping level and is_beginner; ensured test suites pass across project and user services. Implemented safeguard to prevent deletion of a level when users are assigned to it. Overall, these changes improve data integrity, admin capabilities, and business value around mapping quality and user engagement.
