Hatchets and Hops needed a comprehensive solution to manage their growing business, and I was tasked with developing a custom booking and management system that would meet their unique needs. This system was designed to optimize the booking process for both customers and employees, ensuring that sessions could be scheduled efficiently based on bay availability and time slots.

On the backend, the system allows employees to generate schedules that automatically account for available bays and times, making it easy to manage bookings without overbooking or scheduling conflicts. The frontend was designed to be user-friendly, enabling customers to easily view available sessions, book their desired time slots, and complete their reservations.

The system also includes features for processing payments, handling refunds, and managing coupon codes and gift cards, providing a full-service solution for the venue. I integrated Stripe for secure payment processing, ensuring that all transactions are handled smoothly and securely.

My Role

As a Developer 2 at Helm, I served as the primary developer for the Hatchets and Hops booking and management system. My responsibilities included designing and implementing the entire system from the ground up, focusing on both backend functionality and frontend user experience.

I developed the booking management system to allow employees to efficiently generate schedules based on real-time bay availability and create sessions that customers could book through the frontend interface. This system needed to be both robust and flexible to handle the dynamic nature of the venue’s operations.

In addition to the scheduling and booking functionalities, I implemented payment processing features that integrated with Stripe, allowing for secure handling of payments, refunds, coupon codes, and gift cards. My goal was to create a seamless experience for both the staff and customers of Hatchets and Hops, ensuring that the booking process was as smooth and intuitive as possible.

This project was a significant achievement in my role as a Developer 2, showcasing my ability to lead the development of complex, multi-faceted systems that directly impact business operations and customer satisfaction. The successful launch of this system highlighted my skills in full-stack development and my commitment to delivering high-quality, user-centered solutions.
