3 years 5 months

Paris Area, France

Made the product Enterprise-ready: designed and specified features enabling an upmarket move (e.g. graph templated queries, graph styling system, access rights on graphs, declarative schema, plugins, graph detection) Surfaced the main use cases and personas and the associated user needs through customer research (120+ itw in my first year) and customer journey mapping (JTBD, job maps). Redesigned the graph exploration UX/UI (styles, filters, search, graph interactions) to make it modular and evolvable. Some product problems tackled: - Templated queries: how to let non-tech users leverage the power of the graph query language without knowledge of the language. - Graph styling system: how to style a graph, how to configure defaults for big orgs and synchronize styles across users, how to transfer style configuration between instances. Required the design of a DSL akin to CSS. - Declarative schema: how to let admins declare types in a schemaless environment, how to manage conflicts between schema declarations and stored data types - Plugins: how to let customers customize and extend the product to fit their own business context - Alerts: how to duplicate pattern-detection results
