Melicias, Francisco Simplicio; Santos, Leonel Filipe SimõesThis report presents the work conducted during an internship at RogerHR, a startup dedicated to revolutionizing HR workflows through innovative software solutions. Conducted as part of a Master’s in Computer Engineering – Mobile Computing at the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, the internship was focused on enhancing RogerHR’s platform using Java Spring and React. The contributions were mainly focused on time management functionalities, timesheets, shift planning, and leave management, as well as optimizing code quality, refactoring core components, and introducing testing frameworks. Transitioning from academic projects to a production-level codebase posed chal lenges, particularly in balancing rapid feature development with system stability in a fast-paced startup environment. Relocating to Switzerland added cultural and linguistic difficulties, which ultimately strengthened adaptability and collaboration skills. Over nine months, responsibilities expanded from backend development to full-stack responsibilities, contributing to frontend restructuring, CI/CD pipelines, and security best practices. Regular code reviews and Agile workflows refined the ability to write clean, scalable code. Structured into five chapters, this thesis explores RogerHR’s technical ecosystem, the contributions made to its HR platform, and the professional growth fostered by overcoming real-world challenges in a dynamic startup environment.
