Timesheets Management System

This is a minimum viable product (MVP) developed during my internship at Jairosoft. Built as an internal company web application, it demonstrates rapid prototyping, full-stack thinking, and solving real-world business problems for employee time management and billing.

Note: This was an internal company tool with no public deployment. However, the experience and learnings from building this system were invaluable.

Key Responsibilities

• System architecture design for time tracking
• User interface design for timesheet entry
• Database schema design for projects and employees
• Billing calculation logic implementation
• Report generation for project managers
