01

Context

B Charitable combines donor-advised funds, contributions, grants, investing, crowdfunding, and social sharing across web and mobile experiences.

Challenge

DBA built the platform from the ground up. It needed careful fund tracking plus integrations with payments, cryptocurrency, banking, investment providers, and the IRS charity database.

My contribution

  • Contributed as a software engineer within DBA's product-delivery team.
  • Worked on an integration-heavy fintech product where tests, debugging, reliability, and careful backend changes mattered every day.
  • I keep this description intentionally broad because my records do not support claiming ownership of specific modules.

Architecture

The public case study describes a Rails and PostgreSQL core serving web and mobile apps, with integrations for payments, crypto, banking, investments, and charity data.
