OpenBOM is a cloud platform used by manufacturing and engineering teams to manage product data—everything from parts and designs to suppliers and purchasing. It allows multiple people to work together in real time and keeps all product information organized, connected, and up to date. During my time at OpenBOM, I focused on improving the usability, performance, and reliability of the core product. I worked closely with design, backend, and QA teams to deliver features that supported thousands of users managing large and complex product structures.

Key Contributions

  • Led frontend development for major product areas such as Bills of Materials, Parts, Vendors, and Purchasing. Improved the overall user experience across both desktop and tablet devices to make the system clearer, faster, and more intuitive.

  • Built real-time collaboration features that allow multiple users to edit the same data at once without conflicts. This included showing who else is online, updating fields instantly as others make changes, and preventing accidental overwrites—creating a smooth, Google Sheets–style experience inside a PLM system.

  • Developed the “Custom Objects” system, which lets companies create their own data types (like Requirements, Projects, or Files) with custom properties. I also built the linking feature that connects these objects together, making it easier for teams to navigate and understand relationships across their product data.

  • Simplified and strengthened permissions and sharing, creating clear user roles (owner, editor, viewer) and improving access controls. I also added a detailed change history so teams can see exactly who changed what and when, reducing errors and increasing trust in the system.

  • Partnered closely with backend and QA teams to ensure that new interfaces worked seamlessly with backend data and were thoroughly tested. This improved overall stability and made it easier for teams to manage parts, suppliers, and product structures.
