I advocated for the customer's needs while balancing technical constraints, and I would like to share an instance of this experience.

I worked on developing a connected vehicle application for an in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) system. The customer, an automotive manufacturer, wanted to integrate features such as real-time traffic updates, advanced navigation, and remote diagnostics.

To begin, we conducted workshops with the customer to gather and analyze their requirements and priorities. I created detailed use case scenarios to explore how drivers would interact with the features and identify any potential challenges.

Next, we assessed the technical constraints of the existing platform, including processing power, memory, and network connectivity. A feasibility analysis was performed to determine how to integrate new features without overloading the system.

We then prioritized features based on customer needs and technical feasibility, focusing on critical features first while planning for iterative improvements. Optimization strategies were employed to balance performance and functionality, utilizing data compression and caching techniques to manage data transfer and processing requirements.

Throughout the development process, I maintained transparent communication with the customer, regularly updating them on our progress, challenges, and how we were addressing their needs. Customer feedback was incorporated to ensure the final product aligned with their vision and user requirements.

By prioritizing features, employing optimization strategies, and maintaining open communication, we successfully delivered a product that met the customer's needs while adhering to technical constraints. We ensured that the features were user-friendly and reliable while respecting the limitations of the existing platform.
