Individual endorsement
Raphael has very quickly become an important member of our team. He understood the necessity of onboarding to our tech stack extremely quickly, given the short timeline we're working with, and undertook this aspect with gusto. He's also proven himself to be a talented developer, a hard worker, has a fantastic attitude, and is working well within our team dynamics. We look forward to collaborate on subsequent projects with Raphael.

Development Phase 5 - Finalize, Deploy & Live In-Market Refinements of Booking System, & Itinerary Planner
Pathfinder365 is a digital command centre, supporting the end-to-end digital needs of small to medium sized Canadian tourism businesses...from Discovery & Promotion , to Lead & Inquiry Management , (and soon) to Booking & Scheduling . As we evolve our own technology, and leverage strategic integrations, our focus is the holistic support and growth of the Canadian tourism industry. We're the first and only software company to create a powerful operational command centre for tourism businesses, and we aim to become the most useful platform for local and micro-tourism. Existing platforms primarily showcase popular experiences, leaving much of the industry unsupported. Pathfinder stands apart by championing and promoting smaller businesses, aiming for inclusivity across the diverse tourism landscape. In a world dominated by financially-driven algorithms and ads, travellers often miss out on lesser-known, but exceptional, experiences. Pathfinder365 seeks to rectify this imbalance by offering a fairer representation, ensuring a broader discovery of brilliant destinations. Pathfinder365’s mission is to revolutionize the current landscape of tourism platforms, advocating for fairness and a more comprehensive view of available travel experiences, while providing a full suite of promotional and lead management tools for its business partners, and a suite of discovery tools for its travellers. As we've evolved this system over our young life of 2.5 years, we've focused on building out the three key stages of a typical customer journey, discussed earlier. We've successfully built a solid foundation for the Discovery & Promotion stage, and we've integrated a comprehensive and dynamic lead management system to cover the Lead & Inquiry Management stage. Now it's time for the Booking & Scheduling system, which is a huge undertaking, and a critical one. With this project, we're looking to engage with a small team of talented full-stack developers to collaborate with our two internal developers, to build the first version of a tactical Booking & Scheduling system. This first version needs to be effective, efficient, and be the foundation for successive iterations for this system, which could eventually evolve into a dynamic property management system. This phase will involve: Live in-market deployment of the Booking & Scheduling system to our test site Testing the system with test data, and potentially having actual customers run through it Addressing any UX/UI issues discovered through live testing Updates, fixes, pushing code fixes Potentially pushing the code to our live site Identify and track necessary features for subsequent iterations Track all innovations in a document Starting to code the Itinerary Planner

This will involve several steps for the students, including: Familiarizing themselves with our company’s target market, products and services Familiarizing themselves with existing PMS' on the market, including their customer flows, features, functionalities and nuances: Checkfront, Fareharbor, Peek Pro Work with our team to build out the key elements of the core features for version one of this system - working effectively and efficiently, and making the best use of their time on this project Identify and recommend necessary features to include in this version Identify and track necessary features for subsequent iterations Track all innovations in a document (provided)
