24 hour industry project
Hackathon
Hackathon events are created as a rapid collaboration where people work together to find solutions or complete an objective in a short period of time.
During my time at BrainStation Bootcamp we had the opportunity to work in cross functionally teams of UX designers and software engineers to come up with a solution for UKG. The problem being how to use emerging technologies such as AI/ML to improve the work-life balance of employees.
For this challenge our team of 4 software engineers and 2 UX designers had 24 hours to come up with a solution, scroll down to see our result proposal.

The Solution
For our solution proposal we came up with a dashboard developed for UKG that integrates a scoring system for employees, enabling them to earn rewards based on their status within the organization. Additionally, the dashboard includes a mood section, where employees can select emojis to express their feelings. A chat bot, powered by OpenAI's API, provides support and assistance to employees, helping them manage their emotions and improve their well-being. Managers are also provided with a mood board report, enabling them to track the moods of their employees effectively.
The video below showcases the high fidelity prototype created in Figma.
