Hunor Márton Borbély

Just started

I joined Google as a temporary staff member and participated in three projects. I worked on Scratch, internal education tooling, and a VS Code extension.

As a solo developer on the CS First project, I created complex React prototypes for user testing. The prototypes were a fork of the Scratch editor, a block-based visual programming platform for children. I developed a lessons overlay, implemented validation that checks if the steps were performed, and a hint system that highlights parts of the editor. These required digging deep into Scratch’s React codebase. Through several iterations, I contributed 218 commits, constantly improving through feedback.

Later, I became part of a team, working on the frontend with Google-specific tech on interactive widgets like video and polling widgets for their internal tooling. I improved the team’s snapshot testing coverage and proactively updated four Google-wide docs while learning these tools.

In Paris, I supported the development of a Visual Studio Code extension, focusing on research and experimentation.

I started the Berlin pushup group.

Unu is an electric scooter manufacturer and mobility company. As a frontend engineer, I developed a fleet management web application for scooters, building it from scratch with a teammate using Vue.js and the Ant Design Library. This tool allows you to monitor scooters in the city on a map and administer certain properties.

While mentoring a junior backend developer, I also became involved in backend development.

I simplified the development process by introducing snapshot testing.

Additionally, I contributed to the redesign of the customer-facing website.

I gave tech talks, including a proactive evaluation of switching to TypeScript, and organized a team-building event.

LEO Innovation Lab was a digital healthcare innovation unit established by LEO Pharma. It included several independent projects.

I joined as a founding engineer of the Studies&Me project. I created a patient-facing website for clinical trial signups and developing custom web apps for evaluating, monitoring, and scheduling patients.

I created the React frontend and a Node.js backend and used a database as a service.

In addition to development, I designed the appearance and behavior of most key features and validated them through user and A/B testing.

Automating these processes significantly streamlined patient management, replacing manual workflows.

Intern, Junior Developer, then Developer in the Recipe Development and Labeling team, collaborating with food industry companies. Various tasks with SAP-specific technologies.

I became the lead developer for a JavaScript project, exploring the new SAP UI5 framework.

Additionally, I worked as a UX advocate for a year, trained to become a Design Thinking coach, and engaged in UX processes, including customer visits.
