My Developer Portal
Winner of IBM Design Heroes Award, 2023
My Developer Portal provides developers with information needed to monitor and address vulnerabilities in their applications. It also helps to evaluate the efficiency of an application by providing pipeline execution and code quality metrics (such as deployment frequency, pipeline duration, tasks, logs, bugs and more). It aims to continuously deliver value by increasing awareness to quickly address concerns while ensuring the maintenance of a quality codebase.

Key screens
As the design lead on this project, I led the overall design direction based on stakeholder and user requirements. This entailed establishing a preliminary design direction where none existed beforehand, iterating based on team and user feedback, directing and mentoring my fellow designer, and crafting the future design direction, features, and roadmap with help from stakeholders.
Product impact & results
The Developer Portal has had a significant impact on IBM's development teams, delivering several key benefits:
Enhanced application efficiency and security by providing metrics that increase visibility into overall application health.
Substantial reduction in the number of applications deploying code with known critical vulnerabilities.
Shortened vulnerability resolution times, ensuring teams meet security deadlines more consistently.
