PERIOD. Inc

Context

This was my first role at PERIOD., which I took on while completing my junior year at Reed College. I transitioned from this associate role into the Data Engineer & Webmaster position as my responsibilities grew.

[TODO: How did you get this role — through a connection, cold application, Reed pipeline? And what was the org structure at the time?]

What I Did

• Supported the database team in maintaining clean, accurate records across donor and volunteer systems
• Contributed to web design and front-end work for the organization's digital presence

[TODO: What specific database work did you own — data cleaning, report writing, Salesforce admin, something else? What did the web design work look like — were you working from designs or creating them?]

What I Learned

[TODO: What skills or perspectives did this role teach you that still matter to you as an engineer? Good prompts: working with non-technical stakeholders, managing data quality, seeing how a nonprofit runs its technology]
