Citron - Energy Scale-up (S1 2024)
Mission: Data Management, Governance & Engineering
During my collaboration with Citron, an innovative energy sector scale-up, I contributed to the design and implementation of a data management module within their platform. My role encompassed the entire development cycle, from requirements analysis to final delivery.
Key project stages:
Product Discovery / Market Analysis: Conducted an in-depth study to assess the opportunities for internalizing or outsourcing the module, considering the specific needs of the energy sector.
Product Discovery / User Research & Requirements Definition: Led a user research initiative to identify end-user needs and define clear functional specifications for the data management module.
Co-Design of Technical Architecture: In collaboration with technical teams, I oversaw database modeling and data flow governance to ensure a robust and scalable architecture.
Product Delivery / Development Cycle Management: Applied agile methodologies (Kanban & Scrum) to smoothly manage the development cycle, coordinating stakeholders and ensuring deadlines were met.
Product Delivery / Testing, Delivery, and Documentation: The module underwent rigorous testing (unit tests, integration tests, and performance tests) to ensure its reliability and compliance with functional requirements. The delivery was accompanied by comprehensive technical and functional documentation, facilitating integration and future maintenance by Citron's teams.
