The Way Out (TWO) is a fair-chance employment platform helping veterans & justice-involved job seekers re-enter society successfully. After approaching us with their MVP platform, the Disruptive Labs team and I transformed TWO into a complete portal for JIJS (and veterans too!) to find jobs and receive support services from support-service providers. Through a well-tested, robust architecture, the TWO platform enables employers to post jobs and review applicants; support-service providers to onboard, communicate with, and support their enrollees; and job seekers to craft resumes, find and apply for applicable jobs, and work with support providers that match their needs. Key technologies: React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS, Docker, integration testing, E2E testing, CI/CD.
